Windsor Castle
Having been interested in the medieval castles' architecture for a long time; I finally decided to create one in The Sims 3. After a bit of searching for the castles I knew, Windsor Castle seemed to be the most interesting castle to build. You can see the picture of the real castle above this text.
The castle had to be modified a bit since lots longer than 64 tiles don't exist in TS3. The perfect sized lot for this would have been something like 40x90, so therefore I had to reduce the length of some parts of the castle. Also thinking of the playability, the buildings next to the cathedral had to be changed quite a bit. Also the garden of the castle has been created by my imagination since I didn't want to try making a cheap copy of the real garden on a completely differently shaped area.
The rooms included:
7 bathrooms (3 of them in the main castle, 7 around the castle)
10 bedrooms (3 in the main castle, 7 as servants' bedrooms)
5 Kitchens (1 in the main castle, 4 in the servants' recidences)
Library
Diningroom
Lobby
Nectar Cellar
And on the top of that, a big garden
Lot price furnished: 486,958§
Unfurnished: 316,703§
IMPORTANT (Custom content not included):
In order to the cathedral to show up correctly, you need to download the following set:
Build Your Own Cathedral by Hekate999
If you also want the trees and plants to look like they do in the pictures (Only the colour changes to a more natural one), you need to download:
Altered Plants by HystericalParoxysm
None custom content is included and none EA store items are used.
An extra pic from the garden (as it was too big for the attachments):
Lot Size: 6x6
Lot Price: 486,958§
Additional Credits:
Hekate999 for the awesome Build Your Own Cathedral set
HystericalParoxysm for the Altered Plants mod

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.

About Me
Most likely all my uploads will be lots, mainly residential ones. I have no clue about meshing so it's not very likely that I'll upload any other items ;)
When it comes to policies, feel free to use my creations anywhere you want. However, if you'd be interested in uploading my creations somewhere, please do ask via pm first. I will not allow uploading them on paysites, though.
