I got this idea in my head, and instead of going to one of the wonderful builder teams to get them to build it, I thought I would try my hand at it. I do have to say that this is a VERY ambitious build for me. So I am taking my time with it, and working on it as inspiration comes to me. It is far from finished.
This is an over-view of what I have so far. It is on a 40x40 lot. The only building that has a roof & 4 walls is the sauna. Got to keep the steam in!
THis is a close-up of the sauna & WC. Please disregard the wall color, as I have changed it, but the layout of the sauna & WC is the same.
I did place the tub in a little garden area just in front of the sauna.
Here is a pic of the guest/2nd bedroom.
Here is a view of the kitchen & dining area. This was an earlier pic, so there are a few more details that are not shown. Will have to get an updated pic.
I still have a lot more work to do, but I have to admit that I am loving the kitchen & bath areas. it is just the rest of it that I have to work on! hehe
I also have to go in to plant the Kitchen garden, and the herb gardens, as well as the various nectar making grapes & fruits, but that will be left for when I play test, as that is the easiest part.
Thanks for taking a look.
Comments
heheh Thanks! Nope, I can't. However, I am real good at landscaping. Thought it might be better considering that almost all of it is outdoors. Great for now, but this residence better stay out of winter weather or the poor fairies will freeze their wings off.

Oh yeah... I will be doing that! Right now it is more of making sure I have everything out & kinda where I want it, then will be going though to work on colors & such. Wishing well was the first item I placed, and didn't quite know what I wanted. hehe I just kept seeing an entry walkway that led up to the Wishing well. Was thinking of a tree lined path up to the well, but went with a pergola instead.
@Mmdrgntobldrgn: Thanks! I will try to add more pics, and a few more updated ones as I go through.

There will be lots of flowers, bushes, and trees around. I want this to be a wonderful place for a fairy with the loves the outdoors trait to live. Since the only room that has 4 walls is the sauna and the basement (for nectar making & storage), it will keep the moodlet there almost all the time!
Only bad part is when Seasons comes out, you might not want it to snow. Poor things would freeze their wings off!
Thank you again for the comments! I will add more pics as I get more done.
Here are a few pics of the work done so far...

Sneak peek of the nursery & start of kid's area:
Did add a beehive. The open area is where the garden is going to go.
Still lots of work to do, but it is at least starting to take shape.

Think this is the most MOO I have ever used! Plus I love the terrain paints as rugs. hehe
As you can see from the last pic... I still have lots of work to do. I have to work on the kid's rooms & play area, the hobby & gym area, and then put in all the little details that make us & the sims happy. Then plant the garden area. Yep... still lots of work to do.
Can't wait to see more.

Plus, I do have to be honest... I have learned more in building this lot than I have on any other build. I may never be a builder powerhouse like Aleisha, MeganJo, or Yanti (wonderful they are!!), but I am not as bad as I used to think I was. I do want to get a Night shot to show... It is beautiful at night! And without buydebug lights, too!!
Again, thank you for the feedback!!
