Here's the first I chose to display. It's not the first house I built in the Sims 3, but it's one
of the first I uploaded with a new picture as it's main photo.

I decided to build a little modern suburb on an empty street in Riverview and this was the second
house I came up with. It's a 2 bedroom 2 bath home with a HUGE basement that has not one, but two
seperate entraces to the outside. The carport is a unique design that matches some of the gridwork
on the house.

There's a study in the back for a writer - you can actually see it through the back windows above
the second entrace to the basement. The workshop is tiny, but maybe you can put a few tables in
there and have it be for a collector... or a treadmill... another bathroom for when you put in a
pool? Whatever you like.

As you can see there's plenty of room to expand if you need to build another bedroom in the basment.
And here's a shot of the kitchen:

Here's Home #2 in the form of a Modern Villa... The front looks basic and modern
yet the back is a splash of style:

As you can see this home also features a great staircase accessing the second floor inside as well as out. A family of 5 sims would fit easily into this home.

Here's a shot of the street they're on... I'll upload the other two tomorrow.

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Great houses, Bex!

I rec'd!

Bex,

They are gorgeous. I hope to see you at BNS soon.

Annie

Thanks! more to come... I'm getting the hang of changing these photos.

Another modern home, this time befitting the woods. It's on my modern street with the others but
the coloring is perfect for a modern sim in the country. It's got a huge basement too, ready to
be turned into a play area and maybe add another bedroom.

Enjoy!

nice style of yours, i like your houses & rec´d them all

Very nice houses

rec'd them all

Thanks! More coming soon.

Here's a really cool contemporary home- it's more block-like than the others but it still has some roof flair. The carport is covered by the 3 bedrooms and bathrooms for the kids. So if you have a Sim family of 5, this home is perfect.

There's lots of room inside but it lets in lots of light and would be great for those sims who venture outside more often.

I know a lot of people focus on big houses, others on starters, but this is a nice mid-level home for your accomplished sims. Enjoy!

If you like it, please recommend it. Thanks!

Bex

wow!! I love all four of them!! I really love the open floor plan you used, i've been trying to experiment with different open floor plans to meld the rooms into one.

Thanks! yeah I find open floor plans to be really helpful so they don't end up tapping their foot for a while
