Figured I would post a few homes here as a showcase.
All lots built from real floorplans of homes made in the first half of the 20th century with a few mix ins of a more current era.
Floor plans range from the Sears Kithomes, Kithome companies from the 1920s-50s, Storybrooke homes, Hugh Comston Carmel Homes and Fairytale plans. I do not use CC and sometimes leave a lot of decorating up to players for their CC but I do decorate house and Gardens.
Hope you enjoy
First up will be the The Birmingham

Pardiggle or Obers was the last home I made @rosemow will get rest of Pardiggle up tonight its based on the STorybrook House plan by the same name and is also a real home. I got onto the Sears home kick as the house I grew up in was a sears home and as I looked at more plans I realized that a lot of homes around my hometown were sears homes i was kinda shocked

It looks like you have a very good eye for design @rcone. I'm particularly looking forward to checking out Pardiggle in game - it looks lovely! I thought you might like to know (if you don't already) that if you press G while in build mode, you can toggle the grid lines off in order to take better pictures. Apologies if you already knew this!

rosemow

The interior furnishing of Pardiggle is very nice! Very nice living room. The bookcase alcove beside the fireplace looks nice. It look nice how you have placed and angled the armchairs. Sims will enjoy sitting resting there watching tv or reading a book in front of the fire. Very nice layout of the kitchen! The type of cabinets that you have used looks nice and the placement of them on the walls in a curved corner direction looks nice. The yellow flowers on the dining table are sunny for sims to see when eating their meals. The wall plates are a nice homely touch on the fireplace wall, and the fruit bowl, wall cutlery, and spice set on the counters are nice kitchen touches. Very nice master bedroom! The scenic picture on the side wall is calming for sims to see when waking in the mornings. It is nice that there is a study desk in the room for sims to enjoy sitting there using the computer. The walk in clothes and shoes dressing room looks great! Very nice wall paneling and patterns in the other bedrooms. Sims will have nice views of the outdoors through their bedroom windows. The basement rec and activities area looks great! Very nice bar counter nook! Sims will enjoy sitting on the stools having a drink from the bar and chatting. The drinks display cabinet and the neon lights look nice on the wall there. The brick texture of the basement walls gives a great look to the areas. Sims will have fun playing chess or card games whilst enjoying listening to other sims playing the piano, and enjoy using the fitness equipment in the gym room to keep fit. The wooden wall texture of the basement bedroom looks restful for sleeping. Very nice outdoors areas! It looks very nice how you have used the hedging in the build. The sunken pool patio is very nice! Sims will have fun swimming in the pool or enjoy relaxing on the loungers poolside under the shade of the umbrella. Nice outdoors dining porch for sims to enjoy cooking meals on the BBQ and eating them at the table in the outdoors air, enjoying the outside natural plants setting.
The home is very nice

I did but was zoned out when I took said Photos Major Brain Fart lol. I never use grid that much after the build is actually up I like a free flow of where things go hence the use of the Alt button Hope to either photo another sears or another fairy maybe a Carmel Cally Home like Obers

rcone

Gretel
updated it to Gretel .2 in the Gallery.

One of HUgh Comstocks Carmel by the sea Hones built for his wifes dolls unsure of the name as it has been called both Hansel and Gretel. SO I went with Gretel. It is very small much like what many people are doing these days with Tiny homes I would love to live in this.

This is the first in my series of Fairy tale homes

rosemow

Both the real life home and your simversion of the home called Gretel are very nice! You have reflected the home very well in simform! The exterior of the home looks very nice! Very nice roofing! The stone fencing on the edges of the lot looks very nice. The flowers, rocks, large sunflowers, plants and cherry blossom trees are very pretty in the outdoors areas of the home! Very nice backyard areas! Sims will enjoy sitting around the firepit on the stumps toasting food and keeping warm. Sims will enjoy cooking meals on the BBQ and eating the food at the umbrella covered table in the outdoors air. Very nice pool area! The gnomes look nice in this build too. The furnishing of the home looks nice. It looks great seeing the real pictures of the home as well as the pictures of the simforms of the rooms. The teapot,fruit bowl and bottles on the kitchen shelves and the wall cutlery are nice kitchen touches there. Very nice fireplace area in the living room. The stone texture of the fireplace wall looks nice and the red flowers on the ledge are pretty for sims to see when watching tv there. The leafy pictures on the bathroom wall are nice for sims to see when bathing in the tub.
It is a very nice home

Wonderful showcase with beautiful creations. Gretel is a fantastic fairy tale home, the landscaping is very pretty and magical and I love the interior layout and design

Well here is a glance at Fable work done last night more garden in front roof finished up and started on kitchen









Also street view of some of Fable and Fables neighbors all at some point will be SHowcased

You can see The Birmingham at the end of the Street then my Cabin in the woods.2 (forgot the name and do not have sims open) which was my 4th house built almost 6 months ago. Then Fable current house I am working on and am into day 3 of the build today I believe will be day 4. And lastly my Modern castle build, I believe this was 2 builds after the Cabin I find looking back is interesting to see changes in build style. but it is actually HUGE inside. If I remember right 6 bedrooms and a atrium/open to living room area This may be the next I do as I am going to when I showcase update them with new stuff pack and Exp I got since making





after work when I get on Sims tonight will grab fotos of one of the other homes and showcase it

Also feel free to check my Gallery at ID: Rconewarrior and if you want to see one showcased just ask

OriginalName

@rcone

Wow, very impressive work! I'll be filling up my empty, and bulldozing other lots to make room for your work! Very nice

rcone

@OriginalName Trust me me not one original home stands in my Game I have one whole Neighborhood of all Sears Kithomes which looks cool as hell and kinda like a street in my home town may as I did above post just neighbor hoods that are full. The only thing I have yet to even try to make are businesses. and since I part time as a creator for homebuilds (Cob Homes and other natural builds) I love seeing some of these plans for fairytale/Storybrook/ Carmel by the Sea Homes as they are doable in Cob and some have been made from natural self builds IE Carmel homes of Hugh Comstock

rosemow

The picture of the street/neighbourhood that contains your homes is very nice! The homes look very nice together! They will make a great neighbourhood of homes in our games.
The Fable is looking very nice! Very nice exterior of the home. The dormer looks nice. The garden looks very pretty with how you have placed the flowers! Nice car parking spot. The enlarged truck looks great there.

rcone

rosemow

It is great that you have found The Morgan home! The exterior of the home is so nice! Very nice roofing on the home, and the wall patterning and the brick texture of the exterior looks very nice. The flowers and trees at the front of the home look very pretty how they are placed around the water fountain feature and around the lilypad pond.The left and right open shutter windows are nice touches in the home. Very nice layout of the interior of the home.
You will enjoy working on this home as well as Fable

yanti68

Wonderful showcase! My favourites are the cottages and the tudor build! Very charming!

rcone

Well woke up with a bad migraine this morning so day off so here we go next SHow case

The Elmhurst

The elmhurst is the 10th I believe of my Sears Kithomes from the 1920s and is of the Tudor style has three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (many homes per 70s had only one full bathroom and maybe a half bathroom) it costs ran close to $2,000 if I remember correctly monthly payments were under $50

On this build I decided to do a Side yard as one of my child hood neighbors had this house and had a side yard they owned 2 lots between streets hence side yard and they sadly did not have a pool pool is where their garden was

As always I did not ad much decoration as I know people use CC so enjoy and feel free to post what you have done with teh bones of teh houses I make would love to see what you do

Actual Elmhurst homes today



and this is why I want a climbing Ivy Plant in build but if you have CC feel free to add Ivy

and thats it. The elmhurst can be found in my Gallery page under my user ID Rconewarrior Their are 3 versions (first one was a mistake upload with a yard view of the house as main picture) then the second with corrected view. The Most Current one which I updated and corrected a few mistakes is listed under The Elmhurst .2

AS I said feel free to take and make it your own and if you want post it up here as I again would love to see it filled with CC stuff and look more like a live in home rather then looking like a model home

Cheers

next update will be in two days as I need to work tonight on Fable and The Morgan Still shocked I forgot about the Morgan
