Welcome to my Sims 2 Blog!

This blog is to keep track of all my Sims 2 (TS2) stuffeths. I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots - but, I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors. And I've written a few tutorials too. 😁

All of my items are available through Mod the Sims - MTS2: CatherineTCJD.

Most of my stuff is also posted on Tumblr: A Peacock's Tale.

And I'm slowly adding things to Simblr: CatherineTCJD.

I also have an archive of everything I have made on SFS: CatherineTCJD.

Thank you for visiting!

103 Custer Blvd, Downtown ~ Maxis Remodel #34 - Min CC

Originally uploaded to MTS on March 18th, 2018. 2022 update with less CC.

I tried to make these more "Victorian" in style - without adding too much CC - and update them for the modern Sim's lifestyles. I hope you will find a use for this house.

Peruse the floor plan pictures below to see what I changed...


NOTE: The picture below shows the bathroom incorrectly - the toilet and door have now been swapped. Sims will not stomp their feet anymore. 😅


Please scroll down through ALL the pictures to see everything this house has to offer. The lot has been play-tested; everything is accessible and in good working order. There are two smoke alarms - one at the stove, and one at the outside grill. The phone is in the kitchen, and the burglar alarm is by the back door. The kitchen includes a dishwasher, trash chute, stove, fridge, and wine bar. Space is pretty tight in this house; I do not recommend it for large families or for sims who like to entertain often.

This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever lived here. The package has been cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer.

There is parking for two vehicles; one on the driveway, and one in the garage.

This is a pet-friendly build. No pet items are included, but there is space to add them. The bathtub in the basement is accessible for doggie baths.

Pictures were taken with the following items in place, but they are NOT included:
- Backless Tub/Shower combo by HugeLunatic(HL)/MTS
- Seasons Match Fridge by SA99; updated to AL by HL/S2A
- Invisible Driveway by Sophie-David/MTS - if you want to see the pavers...
- Short Epee Fencing by Shakeschaft/TSR - around the rooftop Widow's Walk

The outdoor siding (walls) are from this bundle:
- The Lifestyle Build Bundle wallpapers/floors. (It's the second link in the top post - extracted from Lifestyle Stories by Argon/MATY) This 'bundle' lives back in my Bins folder so it doesn't have the CC star. If you ever enter one of my builds and find it has blank/unpapered walls/floors, it is because they are from this bundle and I didn't realize it. So, either substitute the wall/floor of your choice, or go get this bundle and re-install the lot (from your lot bin.)

Custom Content Included:
- Bakery Build Fence by Veranka/Tumblr
- Elleval Euro Stairs by HL/MTS2
- TGpeagreen Stair Recolor by Amythestfenix/S2A
- DeckStairs by Numenor/MTS2
- OpenTimberStairs by Reyn /MTS2 - these need a script file so follow the link and make sure you install them properly!
- Stairwall 3 and 4 by IngeJones/Simlogical
- LaFenetre Add-On tall window by tBudgett/MTS
- LaFenetre Add-Ons 4 windows by Windkeeper/TSR

Lot Price (furnished): $59,722
