    For some reason the mirrors are making the ceiling look odd in the one en-suite pick :shock:

    It looks normal in the game :?

    The master suite bathroom is very nice! :) Very nice elegantly soft colour shades that you have used. It looks very nice how you have done the curtains. It looks great that you have placed the pillars in the corners of the room. The plants on the walls add a nice touch to the room. The pedestal with the towels and candles on it is nice for sims to see when relaxing and bathing in the tub. The barn looks great!

    Thank you Rose :)

    I wanted to have a nice natural and lush, relaxing feel to it!

    It going to have the pillars in as much rooms as I can fit them I think a home this grand needs them!

    The barn hopefully should be a great addition to it when complete :)

    Good good sweetie and thank you :)

    You have a lot of faith in my building skills :oops: though i'v always been more of an interior designer :)

    I have to admit its looking pretty good from the exterior and planning to make the entrance grander :!:

    It looks bland from the front door :lol:

    Okay sweetie The bed stays :mrgreen:

    I just loved the leafs on it with the pillars and ivy too though i need to add the ivy on both sides :oops:

    Plus I never used the bed before, ever :(

    I want to keep it similar in a lot of the rooms with the exception of the kids bedroom you requested :!:

    How do you feel about a garden themed indoor room for the spa?

    Sadly i will have to build something on the grounds though unless i remove the floor in one of the side big rooms on ground level 8)


    I never did one before :( Ivy and plants and soon with brick walls and grass,tiny pond, ect, ect :P


    It just looks silly the entrance to me now, as i never dreamed the house would end up like this :shock: :lol:


    I was thinking about a nice bed of flowers in the middle front building with a drive coming around each side and front of the steps a bit like a hotel just for that front bit of the house :?: I will think of something for a bit of the farming stuff just on a grander scale :mrgreen:



    Edit



    also the barn i can make room for two or three :!: up to you :?:

    The ivy and vine entwined bed and pillars looks very nice! :) Sims will enjoy sleeping there and waking up to nice natural surroundings each morning! The lounger in the corner is nice for sims to relax on.

    You like the ideas 8)

    indoor garden theme

    The bed made be think of it and remember it being popular with other simmers at the start of the Sims 3 on YouTube :!:

    I will also add

    hot tub, sauna/mud bath and massage table :mrgreen:

    Decided to use a room in the house after all. I am changing the kitchen to the bigger room at the back middle of the ground floor and the original with the dinning room with fireplace,leaving the original dining room for the spa as its one of the biggest rooms on the ground floor next to kitchen and lounge :!:

    Would you mind if a few rooms have a fireplace, including bathrooms?


    I built 8 in total. I personally think bathrooms will look okay with the odd one :?


    I built them before planning the rooms but a house like this should look okay with them still in the rooms :)


    If i was rich i would have one in every bathroom :lol:



    Yes the barn I can make room for 3 horses and I am building a little something else in the upper levels of it :?: :mrgreen:


    Happy you like the front garden space plan facing the house itself :mrgreen:

    What i need to do now is complete the final room in the master suite, finish your huge kitchen and make a start of the spa, after that going to do some work out side the house :mrgreen:

    Pretty bedroom, I love the columns surrounding the bed. Very Greek and atmospheric, I think :)

    That's great to hear sweetie :)

    The spa I would normally do modern but thought the change would be better for this house

    If you look from each side of the house you can see where the fireplaces are for the rooms for the chimneys from ground level to level one


    The ground floor bathroom as a fireplace and one on level one. the rest are from,

    dinning room

    study

    music room

    guest bedroom

    and two other unconfirmed rooms most likely bedrooms :!:


    And the kitchen will be better with the back door anyway :)

    Thanks


    Update soon
