Okay I'll admit that was more than a short break; It was actually around 12 hours over 3 days, I'm off sick don't judge me lol. Annnnnyway Takemizu Hot springs and spa is now up for download:

WARNING: THIS LOT INCLUDES DEFAULT REPLACEMENTS FOR PLANTS, PLEASE UNCHECK THESE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE SOME OF YOUR PLANTS REPLACED. ALSO THIS IS A VERY LARGE FILE PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL UNLESS YOU HAVE A DECENT GRAPHICS CARD.

Okay so now I've clarified here's some info, This lot has toilets, vending machines, 4 massage tables.

105 Sim Lane Remodel

I didn't really do too much to this lot, but I did make it livable for a whole family. I dont know why the original doesnt have any space for a double bed?? I believe that this is the canon house for the Burbs, as seen in some holiday promotional posters, so I tried to recreate some of it and also the decor is Burb style.

Comes with a garden full of tomatoes thanks to John's hard work.

Since I was able to finally get multiple in-game pictures taken again, I have a lot makeover today. This one is Pre-Fabulous, from Sunset Valley.

I uh, forgot to take a before pic. Or make a note of the original price. Or the new price, for that matter. It's under $10K, I know that much.

-*-*-*-

I was really pleased with the little garden feature, honestly.

Also comes with a greenhouse now.

In we go:

-*-*-*-

I did away with the dinette in favor of a more generous living area.

-*-*-*-

Small but serviceable kitchen. An old apartment of mine had a window from the kitchen to the living room and I really liked it.

-*-*-*-

Gonna pretend that the wallpaper is mildew-resistant here. Yup.

-*-*-*-

And, the lone bedroom, with a little writing desk.

Goth Manor Remodel

The Goth family are the richest family in Pleasantview but their house never seemed grand enough to me! So I’ve made it a lot bigger and grander. It now has many more bedrooms, a back staircase and disused servants quarters in the attic.

makeover of Sim State Library because it's so horribly barren by default. I tried to keep the same general floor plan and vibe.

It now contains a dedicated reading room, study hall (with semi-private cubicles and more computers), art room, and a little lecture room (courtesy of beestew's active classes). Plus a few nooks and crannies for hanging out in.

I debated adding a cafe and may go back in and squeeze it in, but for now it's definitely a lot more usable than it was before.

Old Town!

Good evening! tonight I bring to you my version Old Town in the Sims 2. The SC4 Terrain is @philosimy 's found here. There are a few properties I kept from New Pleasantview like some of the farmhouses because I just liked the way they turned out. There are 2 versions of course, One with families and one without. There is also a property listing for this one too. In the folder there is also a .reia file in there. I didn't like it because it's kind of weird that the preview moves but I can't get the actual map to do the flyover unless I rename it to Pleasantview. (If someone ever finds out where the link between the town name and the fly over is I would be sooo soo soo happy because that just kills me that I can't make it do that with the Old Town name.)

The families in the version with the families were made by @tvickiesims and can be found here. I truly hope you guys like this and it brings you back to the bygone days of the sims 1 when you visit the properties.

When @philosimy put this map together they thought about everything. The addresses from all the packs were included in the map on empty lots. I have re-created many of those properties along with remodeling or recreating some that I saw from other creators, and I have credited them in the MLS listing in addition to this post and this one. Currently the properties covered the Sim Circle properties, the Old Town properties, Downtown properties and the Vacation properties. I do plan to make the Magic Town properties and the Studio Town properties too, but as add-ons. I am now going to take a break from creating things this large for a little while I will be back with more in the future, but this is what I have the strength for, for now. I still have one more version of New Pleasantview where there is a change in the storyline, but I am going to table that for now. I hope you enjoy! Here are the family pictures. Note, they may look different in your game as I have default replacement skins by @microscotch & @kestrelteens and eyes from @episims .

Thank you to @plumbtales , @tvickiesims , @philosimy , @drewinthesky , Simsdownload 12, Seba569003, & Broomhilda.

As always make a backup of your game before installing this or any DLC into your game to prevent permanent loss of all your hard work in your game.

I used TS2 UC to makeover this lot. This lot is CC free. If there are any issues, please let me know so I can fix and re-upload. Enjoy.

This is a full hood makeover of Three Lakes, the mountain vacation hood that came with Bon Voyage. All lots have been made over and I've also added 5 made over lots from the lot bin.

195 Main Street Pleasantview Remodel

The Dreamer house is offensive to me and that's all I'll say about that. I made it less boxy, less boringly white, and the roof is no longer taller than the entire house.

I took a lot of inspiration from the Sims 3 version of Darren so I made the whole house more artsy looking. Darren also gets his own studio with lots of large windows, and Dirk gets multiple consoles to play on. Does not include Darleen's grave, but it does include a very cute painting of Dirk.

I have another Desiderata Valley lot makeover to post, this one is 1097 West Leisure Lane, a lot I like to think of as The House of Unfortunate Angles.

The lot starts at $18909.

***This is a picture-heavy post, I admit I'm overly thorough***

I've kept some of the original footprint but most of it was a total gut, as you can see from the exterior shots:

-*-*-*-

-*-*-*-

Moving on to the the interior...

-*-*-*-

Entry/kitchen. Contains the sole phone in the entire house, definitely a mistake on my part. :/

-*-*-*-

Dining/first floor hall. Needs art, but that's on purpose. I try to strike a balance between bare minimum furnishings and decades-lived-in.

-*-*-*-

-*-*-*-

The main living area. Kind of an awkward space but I was sold on it.

-*-*-*-

First floor bath.

-*-*-*-

Coulda been a bedroom I guess but I liked it better as an office.

...And now on to the second floor.

-*-*-*-

Second floor bath.

-*-*-*-

The sunroom. The door between the plant and the chair opens to a balcony with an easel set up on it.

-*-*-*-

The smaller of the two bedrooms.

The larger bedroom, and the last stop on the tour. All told, this lot is now priced at $25545 which, while no longer a starter lot, is very reasonable.

(I've edited the prices of just about every single wall, floor, and object in my game, though, Maxis and custom alike.)

The 101st Marriage Proposal

(the name is based on real life love hotel which apparently ether don't exit no more or has changed it's name. I thought it was the best name ever. The love hotel's name is based on a movie?)

More pictures in this and this post. Looks so mutch better at night!!

It's CC free, and no Ikea stuff back needed.

You will need CEP.

Some defaults that I have (not required, but pictured):

The road deafult that I’m using ~

The grass default that I’m using ~

Clear class default

I also have resources page that I edit quite frequently.

I dunno if it's ok to share hotel lots. So for safety just download the normal community and -> changelotzoning hotel. I didn't have any issues with just the hotel download so i'm sharing it 🤷‍♂️

DOWNLOAD in two flawors:

Normal Community lot:  MediaFire - Sim File Share

Hotel Lot: MediaFire - Sim File Share

SPECIAL INFO FOR HOTELS: If you want your sims to be able to sleep on the lot use this mod by numenor. I also shared some good to know things about hotel lots in normal hoods in this post -long story short- don't visit hotels with only teens (pretty sure kids are the same), you can't leave and will be stuck. So teens/kids will have to bring adults (makes sense for this build tbo). ALSO! Build this in mind of the NPC EVRYWHERE PATCH -mod. So without it the food place is just empty. This mod will give you free food and place to work.

Maximizing what I can achieve with CC-free decorating by taking full advantage of the accessory spawner, harvesting cheats, unlockable career/hobby/skill/aspiration objects & the camera/easel/drafting table etc.

Those family photos of the Ramirez family though!
