Hello everyone! I built this house after seeing it for sale online. It was a gorgeous Queen Anne Style home (my personal favorite style) and I just knew I had to replicate it. It took a lot of work, but here she is. Now the house it is based on is over a hundred years old, so that is why there is a "Receiving Parlor" and "Family Parlor". That also explains the layout of the downstairs (it's a little... dated). The upstairs and back left corner of the downstairs was entirely up to my imagination, I should point out. When building my houses, I like to imagine a story while I build - it helps with furnishing. I imagined the TV series Ghosts - and imagined that I would have a female sim living here along with a few ghosts (that would be a lot of fun). Anyway, I wanted to keep the house comforting, cozy, and warm - but I also wanted it to have a creepy, old-home feel. I mostly tried to use things from Supernatural, so you will not find any new, modern decorations.

For a description of the rooms: Downstairs you will find an entryway leading to three different rooms: first the family parlor. The family parlor is the living room of the house, with an old TV to sit around with your family and watch old TV things. The first bedroom is off of the family parlor - it boasts a fireplace and a nice sitting area by the bay windows. An attached en suite, albeit tiny. Backtracking, across from the family parlor is the receiving parlor - where you chat with guests or hang out. Through that arch is the massive dining table and the modest kitchen. It attaches to the "grand" staircase room. In the back corner, you will find a utility and powder room, a sun or reading room, and access to the rear porch (sometimes called the work porch). Upstairs you will find two bedrooms (one inside the tower ) and a full bathroom complete with a "creepy" closet attached. You will also find an office that can be converted into a bedroom, with an attached bathroom and a separate room for a bathtub (it felt weird having a long, long bathroom, so I split it up).

I'm so excited to get into building more and sharing my creations - if you have any suggestions let me know (although I do prefer old homes instead of new ones ).
