Aquae Simlis - Roman Fort
Since way back into the mists of time, the site of Bluewater Village has been famous for it's pure, life-giving springwaters. To the local population it was a place to water their cattle, wash their smalls, and engage in other unspeakable unhygienic acts in the manner of those lacking knowledge of basic plumbing.
Of course, this all changed when the Romans arrived. They had no intention of sharing their new-found spa with a horde of bare-bottomed barbarians and immediately built this fort to ensure that none of them came within a mile of the place again.
This is a 4x4 lot costing about 46k. It's unfurnished apart from some decoration to give it some atmosphere and though you could probably squeeze 3 bedrooms in, it's probably best as a 2 bed, 1 bath (plus outdoor rock spa/hot-tub) lot. For anyone who's interested, it's loosely based on the type of small forts, or milecastles, built by the Romans along Hadrian's Wall....though I doubt the real ones had fountains or flower pots in them!
