Floor Plan for - 120 Beach Crest Strip!

The follow is documentation of how I created this lot. I just thought that by placing pictures of my floor plan was okay and anyone would just look at them just to get an idea of how I created it. Not the case. I now see I need to provide more than just pictures. I appreciate Lilly's questions as it helped me to better understand what additional info others may need in order to create the same lot that I created.

Sorry it took me so long to get these to you, but I just figured out how to upload my documentation that I created on Word for those of you who wish to create the same lot I did. **Please note, the illustrations you see here are not that great. When they are viewed in a Word or PDF format on my come, it is so much more clear than what you see here. I tried to adjust the pictures the best I could, so I apologize for the bad quality.

***Note: This is NOT a Beach Lot, therefore, can be place in any Hood that you may have!

Hope this helps everyone!

Hi, BBdoll!

These pictures are wonderful and should clear up the questions that I had on details. They are taken from great angles and in several I can see the floor tile squares that appear in build mode. I've jotted down your notes with pictures I drew from the floor plan. Now, I'm going back into my game and do some building!



Lilly

Thanks, hun! and keep me posted. Can't wait to see what you create.

Hi, BBdoll!

I did it!

It took a little doing. I used the notes I took but also toggled back and forth between my game, your original floor plan and the the one with more details. I had to be patient since my computer is slow on processing so it took a while. I just kept plugging away at it. I took pictures; however, I'm not sure how to share them or even retrieve them. I'll have to see what I can do about that. CindaLove has some directions and she says I should be able to put pictures in my blog.

It's not 100% complete but the basics are there. I like house that way and then can make some changes as I use them for more than one family and in more than one neighborhood. 120 Beach Crest is saved to my "lots & houses" bin. I made it in blue and white because that seemed appropriate for a "Beach Crest" drive address. I used a southwestern blue stucco for the outside and used white windows and doors as well as the using the outside steps and railing that were white with the blue line. I used blue flowers and added a couple more palm trees. I used multi-colored blue stones for the walks, balcony, roof, etc. I moved the mail box and garbage can but just over a little so they are on either side of the walk as you come out the front door, down the steps and then toward the road. Where you put your mail box, I put an angel sitting in blue flowers. And, where you put your garbage can, I put a plant.

Inside, I made 3 bedrooms on the garage level: a child's bedroom, a nursery and a master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. Since that room is fairly large, I'm thinking of enlarging the ensuite bathroom. I'm also thinking of putting in some of the half-wall dividers that you can see through on the top to divide the living room area into different areas such as a TV watching area; study or reading area, etc. I like using them since it keeps the room open but makes it easier to put things into funcitonal areas. Maybe, I'll have a music area. And, maybe a small pool and/or some playground equipment or a fishing pond.

It was fun to build. the plans. I have a number of ideas of how I'd like to use the house. If I figure out how to put up the pictures that I've taken, I'll let you know. I can hardly wait to put one of my families in this house and play with them in in. It's a wonderful house.

OMG! I just lost everything I just said to you. Now I have to type it all over again. Anyway, as I was saying BEFOREEEE,,,, WTG, Cinda!
I am very excited for you, and can't wait to see you new creation.

Yeah, that house is very Versatile... You can even put your Pool Inside in either the garage area, or one of the Bedrooms, as it was built on the Ground Level. You can add a Hot Tub on the roof, and have a BBQ and Rec area up there. Just add some stairs outside off the patio. A lot you can do with that house.

Your colors sound beautiful! That was the plan, for others to just use my flr plan and build how ever they want. You can even make it a 3-Story. I knew it would be much easier for you after you saw the pics. I am 'Visual' as well..

Well, have fun and I'm looking forward to seeing your finished product. : :

Hmmmmm, not sure why this popped up here, again.  But since it did, think I'll leave a comment.

I built this house and added some "greenhouse" tiles for part of the roof and then left a large space in the upper floor, so that, the bottom floor also gets some of the light--like EA did with the Greenman house in Riverblossom Hills.  Now 120 Beach Crest Strip is waiting for it's new owner--Daisy Greenman and her fiance, Justin.

Again, great house BBdoll!

Love to share it, BBdoll but right now I'm just frustrated with trying to use this site and my e-mail account with all the changes.  Lots of delays.  I've replied to posts, then hit send only to have the whole post deleted.  I can't access things on my e-mail account.  Just frustrated.  So, trying to play more TS2 and chill out (which will be a welcome thing this weekend as temps here are predicted to be in the 115 to 118 degree F, range and that is hot).

As far as posting on this site, I have the figured out the first step (and then they changed things--I'm not referring to the admins, here but the forumotion people) so now I'm thinking I might have to start all over, again.  I took a lot of pictures to share the house but just haven't been able, thanks to my computer illiteracy, to figure out how to share them.  And, I'm still working on getting some good close ups--not there, most of the time, yet.  I've also had some things that happen in life and at work interferewith my simming, but I plan to keep trying.

 U should post the problems you are having.  I don't think I had that issue.

Hope your other issues get better.  That can be quite stressful for sure.
