Little Homestead

There's not much that can really be said about a starter home.  They're fun to make.  When I feel my attention span faltering after contending with large family builds, a little starter is refreshing.  A mansion will take me a week or more to finish.  I can hammer out one of these in a day.

I always loved those tired-looking old ranch houses I drive by in the Texas countryside. I thought one of 'em would make a great little fixer-upper for some young sim.

Here's the details:

- Sits on a 20 x 30, facing the short side
- 2 bedrooms, furnished for a couple and one child
- 1 bath
- Living/Dining/Kitchen all share the same open space, warmed by a cute little tin fireplace (which, unlike my more expensive builds, is not Fireproofed. You can't afford fireproofing!)
- A garden in the backyard with lettuce, tomatoes, grapes, potatoes, onions, and an apple tree. All at Very Nice quality. Could keep the pantry stocked, or be the start of a farm.
- Only one store item: a bookshelf. Several Expansion items, however. As always, No CC.
- Priced under $16.5k

The lot has been playtested at full capacity. Future owners may want to check the property carefully. The previous owners could swear they heard termites in the walls.
