Roarke's Mansion
Sidenote: If I had had the same amount of rooms and made the lot more closely related in size to the linked information, this lot would not likely have been playable. I wanted to create a lot that had the feel and followed the general idea without it being too massive.
Various Details from various JD Robb books that I recreated:
- Entry Foyer - had a "boldly patterned rug of red and teal" and French Impressionist paintings on the walls
- Sitting Room - twin sofas with lush upholstry in sapphire and arts such as sculptures and glass
- Dining Room - fireplace had rose-veined marble and crystal
- Library - 2 floors, two generous seating areas, leather in the wood-trimmed deep burgundy sofas and chairs, jewel colors on glass lamp shades
- Bedroom - large room with sitting area, fireplace of pale green stone, large bed of midnight blue
Game House Specifics:
- Circular Driveway with 3 parking spots and detached 2 car Garage
- Grand Entry Hall - 3 stories
- Solarium
- Formal Sitting Room
- Formal Dining Room
- Butler's Quarters
- 2 level Library
- 4 Bedrooms (could be 6)
- 5 full baths, 2 half baths
- Office and connecting Conference Room
- Home Gym
- Media Room
- Laundry Room
Lot Details:
- Lot Size - 40x40
- Furnished - §402,641
- Unfurnished - §208,475

2. Select the .sims3pack file you got from extracting.
3. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
5. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Select the house icon, find the lot in the list, and tick the box next to it. Then press the Install button below the list.
6. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the lot to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
7. Run the game, and find your lot in Edit Town, in the premade lots bin.
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
