Bedrooms
Hopefully this will turn out to be a series of buildings both residential and commercial (if I can drum up the nerve to build / upload a commercial zone lol) that are based on a "technology" theme, by that I mean things relating to computers, microchips, electronics and such. Might possibly include sci-fi oriented stuff but I don't know yet.
8-DIP Residential Microchip
Everyone's favourite piece of technology to live in, while the 8-DIP Residential Microchip may be old technology it's still full of that classic microchippy goodness we've come to know and love!
I did look at a few different basic chip designs but had the 8 legged spider style in mind at the time, so here's a comparison photo of one

Rooms
3 Bedrooms
2 Bathrooms
Kitchen
Dining room
Livingroom
3 car driveway area
Lot Size: 30x20
Lot Price: $106,114 (F) / $76,405 (UNF)
Side Notes
It is what it is, a giant microchip. Like a little hi-tech spider scurrying across your neighbourhood, err yeah anyway
.. it has 3 bedrooms on the 2nd floor (2 have doublebeds, 1 is a kids room), a hobby room and a bathroom too. The 1st floor has a kitchen, diningroom, livingroom and a bathroom. There's also space for 3 cars underneathe the giant chip built on flat copper connector driveways
.Testing
Have done some basic testing, everything seems in order (all objects seem to be accessable so far as I could see). If anyone finds any issues please let me know and I'll try to correct them as promptly as possible.
Lot Size: 3x2
Lot Price: $106,114
