    OMGosh, this is fabulous. I love all the landscaping fall accents. You did such a good job. Also, your garage is wonderful. Especially the workshop section. So creative. This is what I want to eventually be able to accomplish. WOW. Just, wow.

    Autumn Thyme Farm is another superb creation, beautiful landscaping and outdoor areas and the basketball hoop looks perfectly placed between the garages. Love how you've brought the 'country' style indoors, the kitchen is a dream :)

    When I saw the title, I was kind of expecting a ton of cc, but no! Autumn Thyme Farm is amazing. It's a really beautiful, inviting home. Silly question, will the pumpkins rot? I know the carved ones do if you don't have a sim with high Handiness preserve them.

    @WrathofCath Absolutely beautiful! This is what my dream house would've been like in real life when my children were smaller! I adore wraparound porches for one thing and old farm houses in particular since that's what we had when I was growing up. We didn't have a pool (bummer), but we did have a large garden like this one.

    I love that you don't use CC so more Simmers can enjoy your builds, it's one of the reasons you're my favorite builder. You inspire me with your creativity. I only wish it came in a smaller version for a 'retired' couple without children still living at home. Large builds lag in my game, but that's not your fault. Perhaps I'll try to build one using inspiration from this build. I only wish I had Parenthood so I could recreate that gorgeous kitchen!

    Thank you so much for sharing! <3

    @masajo, Thank you so much for your wonderful comment, Christine! :blush:

    Thank you for the lovely comment @SerraNolwen! I had my tester sim *preserve* all the pumpkins (or so I thought) Before I uploaded the build. When I saw your comment, I tried placing the game on a different lot with a different sim, to see if they stayed that way. I'm pretty sure it must because it was just fine, on the new lot. I did apparently miss one of the green ones by the path however... Sigh. I guess losing one isn't too bad. :p

    Why Thank You so Very Much @Karababy52! Your lovely comments truly made my day! :blush: How lucky were you, to have the opportunity to grow up in an old farm house! They're one of my favorite homes to build, in game. :smile:

    Autumn Thyme Farm looks marvellous! Love the warm colours of the beautiful house, the outstanding landscaping and oh, be still my heart, those absolutely perfect WrathofCath interiors! <3 Love the lived in feel with the decorations in eg the teen bedrooms, the gorgeous colour combination of sunny yellow and wine red in the master bedroom, that tools and workshop nook in the garage, the MOO'd dining table, and so many more super design choices, fantastic build!

    Nutmeg Cottage is a very nice home! :) Very nice design of the exterior! The roofing and dormer, and the nutmeg colour scheme of the home looks very nice! The flowers look pretty on the edges of the home and around the tree bases. The design of the outdoors living sofa and armchair fireplace sitting nook is very nice! Sims will enjoy chatting there near the fire. The candles and fruit bowl are nice touches there. Very nice outdoors dining and hot tub patio area! Sims will enjoy cooking meals on the bbq and eating the food at the umbrella covered table in the outside air, and enjoy relaxing in the hot tub. It looks nice how the plants border the patio edges. Sims will enjoy painting on the easel in the sunshine. Very nice pool area! The flowers there look very pretty ! Sims will enjoy relaxing poolside on the loungers. Very nice furnishing and layout of the interior of the home ! The sofas and fireplace tv watching area is very nice for the sims to enjoy watching tv together near the fire or reading a book . The stained glass lamps are nice touches on the side tables. Very nice study desk nook corner for sims to enjoy sitting there using the computer. Very nice open plan, light filled kitchen and dining area! Sims will enjoy dining at the table with sunshine coming in through the windows.

    I really like Nutmeg Cottage. The kids' rooms are so cute! The master bedroom is nice, too. I wouldn't have expected those colors to work so nicely together, but you managed to spread them in just the right amount. The roofing and landscaping are very pretty as well. Might I ask where the plants around the patio are from? The leafy ones right next to the spa.

    Santa's Surf Shack
    1br, 1ba.
    Lot Size: 20x20
    Cost: $74,937
    No CC


    Gallery Link

    I Loved the addition of the new Beach-y Christmas items we got this week, so I decided to use those as my inspiration for this quick, fun little build. It's a kitschy little surf shack with one bedroom and one bath. The floor plan is totally open (with the exception of the bathroom), with only folding partitions to give the bedroom area some privacy. It will sleep two.

    Once Christmas is over, Santa loves to head on over to his private little surf shack in Brindleton Bay. He loves curling up by the fireplace with a good book or just chillin and watching some tv. There's a nice little kitchen to keep his tummy full. He can work on his chess game or check up on his elves (shivering back in the North Pole), by chatting with them on the computer. The large wrap around deck has a grill, picnic table, little herb and fruit garden and lots more. There's even room for Santa to bring his favorite little puppy and kitten!

    Let's take a peek. Here are some outdoor shots:
