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!

Park Flats: a duplex apartment under a park. A flat flat, if you will.

Park Flats

...a very flat flat, if you will!
New 2022 version - now with minimal CC

All new!!! Grand Re-Opening September 2015 December 2022. 😉

Park Flats ~ enjoy getting back to nature - while living in the big city!
Now, I know this isn't the only apartment building with a park on it's roof... But, it is one of the only parks with an apartment under it! That's right folks, Park Flats uses an all new energy-efficient style of berm building; which keeps the cool, cool and/or the heat inside where you want it. I've heard it said that one can never have enough parks in the 'hood - so here's one with an apartment underneath.

Take a look at the floor plan below - these two studio flats pack a lot of living area into a slick, compact space.

The apartments feature: a powder room at the base of the winding stairs, a computer/tech nook under the stairs, a full gourmet kitchen, dining area, bar, living area, sleeping area and another full bathroom in the far corner. Everything your sim will need to live comfortably is included - art, entertainment, communications, and skill building items - including a small gardening area in the 'park'.

Please scroll down through all the pictures. Your sim will love to call this place home!

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

Just to be clear: Both apartments are furnished EXACTLY the same. They are mirrored of each other.

This 2022 Updated version uses much less CC than the original! I did not retake the pictures - any CC shown in the pictures has been replaced with in-game (non-CC) items. (Like - the EAStore Asian plant shown in the 'computer' picture above... it was replaced with the No-fuss Ficus. Etc.

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.
