Brooklyn Brownstone
Based on RL: 198 Washington Park, Brooklyn, NY
Both Single Family & Subleted versions are available to download
Place several of these side-by-side for a Row House effect like the cover picture implies.
8 bedroom - plus nursery - 5.5 bathroom
- no slope basement - attic - pet friendly - walled garden -
~~~ Only 3 CC - all stairs ~~~
The floor plan comes from Brownstoner.com; and the "Zillow" listing from last year. It was listed for 6.5-million, and sold Jan/2021 for $4,875,000. My floor plan inspiration picture is included in the pictures above.
I was just going to "suggest" that this lot could be made into apartments (I only want the Single Family Home, as originally designed, for my game.)
But, a friend of mine was having trouble converting a similar house into apartments - so I thought maybe I should try it before suggesting it. It took me over 5 hours, and quite a bit of rebuilding to make it work! Partly because of the No-Slope Basement with a lowered foundation/Grid-Adjuster work, and partly because of the Lot-Adjusted shrunk sides... but mostly because TS2 doesn't like staircases in apartments. *sigh*
So, the upper inside staircases have all been changed to the spiral staircases - I don't like the aesthetic - but it works. That's the only difference between versions.
Well that, and rezoning for apartments.
So, the "Sublets Available" version: offers two apartments.
- The bottom 2 floors (Garden level and Basement) with 2 room-mate style bed/bath suites and a small kitchen. Rent is $3,941
- The upper 3 floors (plus the attic) with 6 bedrooms (plus a nursery) and 3.5 Bathrooms. Rent is $7,693.
Yes, it's pricey... but not nearly 6.5-million!
This house/Apt is furnished, and lightly decorated. All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included. The stoves, grill, and fireplaces all have smoke alarms. Both front doors are burglar alarmed. There are telephones on each level.
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 no parking.
This is a pet-friendly build. No pet items are included - but there is plenty of space to add them, both tubs are accessible for dog washing. The back yard is not accessible to large dogs because of the 2-click foundation height. They can get to the terrace dining area, but not down to the grass. Unless you have Simler90' Stair Mods - linked below.
Possibly used but NOT included - so, you may need to GO get it:
- I use the Lifestyle Build Bundle wallpapers/floors ALL the time. (If you followed that link, 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 I used ones from this bundle and forgot to mention it. So, either substitute the wall/floor of your choice, or go get this bundle and re-install the lot (from your lot bin.)
Thank you, Mootilda for the awesome Grid Adjuster and Lot Adjuster tools - both were used to make this lot.
You may also want to get:
- Simler90's Stair Mods so the 2-Step foundation to down to the yard will work for large dogs.

How to rent a Furnished Apartment:
- Bring up the cheat box with CTRL-SHIFT-C.
- Enter the following cheat: boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true
- Walk your sim to the front door of the apartment that you want to rent. They need to be standing right in front of the door.
- Clear any actions from your sim's queue - including other sims trying to talk to them.
- SHIFT-click on the door of the apartment you wish to rent and choose "Rent Furnished."
- If the action falls out of your queue, your sim probably needs to be closer to the door.
- Once the apartment is rented, bring up the cheat box again.
- Enter: boolProp testingCheatsEnabled false to turn the cheat off again.
