    Old Manor House is a very nice home ! :) Very nice exterior of it! The tower looks very nice! It looks nice the types of windows that you have used. It looks great how you have used the items from the manor set. Very nice wraparound porch! It looks great how you have done the front steps! The way you have done the plants through the outdoors areas looks very nice! The gazebo is very nice! Sims will enjoy sitting relaxing on the seats in the gazebo, enjoying the outdoors air. Nice pond area. The water fountain features in the pond looks nice. Very nice furnishing of the interior of the home! Very nice shades of colours that you have used through the home! Very nice living room. Nice comfortable elegant armchairs and sofas that you have placed there for sims to enjoy sitting and relaxing on. They will enjoy having a chat, watching tv or reading a book, and the fireplace will keep the room warm. The framed pictures on the wall are nice for sims to see when sitting there. The scenic picture on the wall above the tv is a nice background to see when looking at the tv. The type of ceiling lights that you have used through the home looks elegant and nice and suits well the type of home. The lights and statues on the fireplace ledge look nice there. The candle wall lights look stately and nice. Nice design of and furnishing of the kitchen and dining room! Nice type of dining seats that you have used. The flowers on the dining table are a pretty sight for sims to enjoy seeing when dining there. It looks great how you have done the fridge area with the counters placed either side of the fridge The lemonade jug and the coffee machine on the counters are great for sims to enjoy having a drink with their meal. Sims will enjoy listening to music from the stereo whilst dining. Very nice colour shade and texture of the kitchen and dining room curtains, and all the curtains through the home. The colours you have used through the home create a calming feel. Very nice furnishing of the bedrooms. The types of beds that you have used looks very nice. Very nice master bedroom! It looks nice how you have placed the candlelights on the bedside tables, and the sunflowers pictures on the wall are a nice sunny sight for sims to see when waking up in the mornings. Very nice vanity table. The candlelights, beauty products and flowers on the table are nice touches. Nice window sitting areas. It looks nice that you have the three angled full length mirror there for sims to check their appearance in. It looks nice that you how you have recoloured and placed the mannequin in the other double bedroom. Very nice scenic pictures that you have placed on the walls in the single bed room for sims to see when laying in bed.
    It is a very nice home! :)

    Wow, stunning build, Yanti! I hope you're doing well; I haven't been around much recently. Good timing on both our parts to drop by at the same time. xD

    I love your first pic showing the manor atop a hill bathed in sunlight. It looks almost real, and I can definitely imagine seeing something as grand as that in real life. Great job! :-)

    The massive porch is awesome, too. I would love a house like that in real life! And your gazebo is wonderfully built. In fact, everything about this house screams old world money and extravagance. I'd definitely download if I had this set from the store. :-)

    I can, however, still give a rec, so for sure one is coming your way! xD

    Beautiful work Yanti! Love the color contrast with the side tower :thumbup: and as always your landscaping is natural and eyecatching. Your interiors feel bright, warm and most importantly spacious, which I know can be difficult with all the furniture you normally find in a traditional style. It's hard to not make even a big room seem cramped, but you've done a fantastic job making your rooms feel open! :mrgreen: Rec'd

    Hi Yanti
    Old manor house is a very impressive build positioned perfectly at the top of a hill.
    I love the exterior pictures of this majestic build in the warm light of sunset, surrounded by a beautifully Yanti landscaped garden. The formal decor is elegant and looks wonderful in its neutral colour palette. Rec'd and of course straight into my favourite files it goes. Hugs Folly
