Hello, Simmers!
What's better than a shotgun shack? I've begun creating a series of Americana-style lots for you to enjoy. All of them look wonderful in Willow Springs neighborhoods, and some are intended for use on the small starter lots (although - fair warning - they do not have "starter" prices, so use the "freerealestate on" cheat to purchase them when you move in your new family.)
Currently, these homes have no custom content and are tagged #NoCC.
Comments, suggestions and requests welcome!
NOTE: Sorry for the grid lines in some of the screenshots. I keep forgetting that the game removes the UI but not those silly lines when you screenshot from build mode.

THE CASTLETON
The Castleton is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath classic American Foursquare home based on plans directly from a 1920s catalog. I believe it really fits the architectural style and look of a foursquare. Download it and see for yourself!
THE BROOKSIDE
This cozy 2 bedroom 2 bath 2-story Craftsman is another American classic. From the Sears catalog directly to you!
THE MARQUETTE
The Marquette comes directly from the Sears & Roebuck catalog - house number 3046 from the Honor Bilt home plans. Although I took liberties with the interior (had to, more like, because of some limitations in build mode), the exterior is as true to the original as I could make it. This home sold in the early 20th century for $2,275, "already cut and fitted."

A stylish Mid-century modern. All the architectural rage right now! This is technically a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, but one bedroom is being used as an office.
THE MITCHELL
The Mitchell is an English-style bungalow from the 1930s - direct from the Sears catalog! It's a two-bedroom home with a large eat-in kitchen and living room with office space. It also fits on a tiny 20X15 lot in Willow Springs!

THE BELLWETHER
This is a classic mid-19th century Italianate style home. It has all the charm of a bygone era... with a few modern touches!
They are great homes!

Hi, @MandyAmandy! Thanks for your kind words.
Yes, you can download my houses. You can open up the Gallery from inside The Sims 4. If you're playing in live mode, there's a button on the upper right menu bar that opens the Gallery. You should be able to search for me by my username, KaylyRed. From there, you can download the houses and, if you want, follow me so you'll see when I upload more.

@vcosley - There aren't a lot of empty lots, but you can bulldoze existing ones when you move a sim in. I've just been rebuilding over the Maxis-made houses. You can also create a new saved game file. Since you can save everything you build, it's not such a hardship to build over an existing house.
@ceejay402 - I might consider requests. Depends on how much time I have.
I've added another home! See the third post in this thread for The Bellwether, my mid-19th century Italianate.
