This converted potting shed is now an attractive minimalist home for the single sim just starting out.
Its location allows the occupant to gaze out and dream about being able to afford a decent-sized home one day…
…but for now, the interior boasts a small but functional kitchen, a somewhat comfortable bed, and a simple bathroom, all contained within a 5x5 square.
The close proximity of the bed to the kitchen might seem like a fire waiting to happen, but it also allows a Sim to roll out of bed and straight to the fridge, saving precious time every morning. The provision of a laptop allows a Sim to chat online, work from home or build skills, although Sims are advised to keep the laptop in their inventory during mealtimes to avoid getting toast crumbs in the keyboard.
The bathroom is small but tastefully-decorated, albeit in need of some self-cleaning upgrades. The shower runs cold occasionally, but it’s also eco-friendly. The comfy toilet even allows for extra seating in case of multiple guests for dinner.
Notes:1. Fireproofing the stove before the bed catches fire is highly recommended.
2. The right hand side of the lot is likely to need smoothing, depending on exactly where the house is placed.
3. The kitchen/bed thing is fully functional but the bed has developed a tendency to clone itself (if you delete the spares in buy mode, it magically works again). Bunk beds always do that in my game, though, so I hope it’s just me….
