Roommates Victorian - 40 x 40, 6 br, 6.5 ba
« on: August 18, 2013, 12:45:55 PM »

Name: ROOMMATES' VICTORIAN
Lot Size: 40 X 40
Bedrooms: 6
Bathrooms: 6.5
Cost furnished: 237,697
Cost unfurnished: 125,318
EPs: AMB, GEN, SN, SEA

Created in response to a request by Jade for a house that could hold six roommates, each with a bed/bath suite, plus a large kitchen, laundry room and several hangout areas.

This contemporary Victorian is designed for roommates to live together with minimal arguments over the bathroom, TV and laundry.  The communal areas include a large living room with a TV, stereo, bar and easel.  The dining room seats eight, and there are five more seats at the counter in the kitchen, which has all of the modern conveniences, including a dishwasher, trash compactor, microwave, coffee pot, and two stoves.  There are a library and a powder room leading off from the foyer. The side door leads to a large laundry room with twin washers and dryers.  The outdoors provides plenty of additional seating and living space, with a front porch, large back patio, pool, lounge chairs, grill, snow cone machine, trampoline, telescope and chess board.  There is a space set aside for a garden, and two parking spaces (cars not included; they are in the screenshots as illustrations only).

Upstairs there is privacy for everyone, with six separate bedrooms, each with their own personality and their own matching bath. A small shared gym contains a TV and two exercise machines.  A ladder leads up to the attic loft, which currently holds a foosball machine, but has lots of room for skilling items.

Your color palettes are always so complementary and beautiful! It's so impressive how you create such inventive designs using only EA items and patterns.

Has the house been playtested yet? I noticed the training room, where the weightlift machine is standing abit too close to the desk infront of it :)

If by "playtested" you you are asking if I have played with the house for several Sim days, or have I sent a test Sim in to sit in every chair or something, the answer is no.  But I always test all of my houses for anywhere I think there might be problematic routing before I post them.  My Sim uses the weight machine with no problem.

Wow, thank you so much! If there was something I could do to repay you I would. This is absolutely beautiful and perfect for the project. :)

Your buildling skills amaze me! I'm so jealous. This house is a work of art.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.  This one was very fun to build - I think the secret is an unlimited budget. ;)  The credit for the fun idea goes to Jade!

So glad it will work for you.  Thanks for the idea, and for the favorite color/trait suggestions for the rooms.  No need to even consider repaying -- I love to build houses, and am always looking for fun ideas and projects, so it really was a pleasure!

Beautiful house intl_incident . Must have taken you ages. Would you be interested in working on a project for me? My building skills are still in the early stages & I have an idea & a picture in my head of what I want but can't seem to bring it to life.

Kind regards

I love, love, love this house!  Every bedroom does indeed have it's own personality and yet they all flow well with the house and each other.  I wish I could do Victorians like this.  Amazing build!
What?  Grannies can't play games?
I speak perfect Nooblik, (and some Simlish)!
