For Natsuko. This may be too large, too expensive but it is definitely a house for generations of Sims. It has EVERYTHING I could think of without going into buydebug, (except for plants in garden), and I don't think I have any store items in it.
I posted it in my studio on the EA website here:
http://launcherapi.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=4229862 I'll put it in the Swap Shop too.
Believe it or not there is actually room to put stuff in or move a wall or two to make more rooms or larger rooms.
I started this months ago, I forget for whom, but someone else built one they liked so I put it away for a bit. This is not my original build but a make over of a base game house called Miramontes. I've redone it several times but this is my favorite so far. I took out the luxury cars. lol
I don't know how to link these pages to the Swap Shop but I really hate to post those screenies all over again. Anyone able to help?

I forgot to mention, 6 bedrooms/6 baths, all ensuite except the nursery which only has a powder/laundry room.
There are two kitchens. The main one is on the first floor next to the formal dining room. There is a little sitting area there and still, one more half bath/powder room. Hey, when a Sims gotta go, they've gotta go. Right?
Upstairs on what is actually the main entrance floor, there is another, small kitchen. Just right for snacks while watching tv in the family room. It's a large room so there is a kitchenette, media/family area and small dining area with.........you guessed it, another half bath. The main living room has the most gorgeous views and a charming fireplace with cozy seating around it. There is also another chess table set up here.
Go up one flight of stairs to the master bedroom and nursery and a small bedroom with two twin beds. Two and a half baths here plus laundry facilities.
Top floor has three bedrooms en-suite all in pastel shades. There is an adjoining deck for two of the bedrooms with easels and a telescope. If I had a house like this in the setting it's in, I'd never leave home at all.
I did notice as I went through and finished this house up that several of my patterns for walls etc. were missing. I had used some from the exchange originally and when I wiped my game I lost those patterns from my downloads, so they didn't show up anymore in my builds. I'm wondering if this will happen to people who download houses we build? If they don't have a particular pattern, (because it's not found in one of the EP/SPs),
will the wallpapers and upholstery show up ugly as mine did? This might be something we builders need to be aware of. Looks great in a screenie but then when you get the actual house it's all ugly walls. I hate most of the patterns, (not all), that come with the games but it looks like for safety sake when I build for uploads I'll have to stick to those.
EDIT: This house is on a weird size lot. It fits next to Stoney Falls but I don't think it would fit well anywhere else. The lot is 36 x 40something
