Driad's Home

[Neashaleigh]

With the upcoming Expansion Pack featuring fairies (among other strange and amazing creatures), I thought I'd create a house that would be perfect for fairies, driads and those who feel they are One with Nature. Using a mushroom as my inspiration, I managed to come up with this house. I hope you like it as much as I liked creating it. It does not contain any cc, but does have a large amount of store items, which I'll list.

Size: 40x40
Cost - Furnished: §155,067
Cost - Unfurnished: §77,325

Bedrooms: 1 master, 1 double child's room with a bunk bed and one nursery.
1 bathroom
1 central living room
Large kitchen and dining
Study
Large yard with pond (and fish spawners)

Note: Contains the Tree of Prosperity from Lunar Lakes and the Wishing Well from Lucky Palms along with the following store items:

Ps: I would welcome constructive criticism


And that goes for all my builds

[JudesSims]

I love this! Gotta have it! Thank you

[alex51299]

This is amazing! I would love to download it myself except for my unfortunate lack of store items.

[Neashaleigh]

Thank you both.

And yeah... this one does take an awful lot of store items. But there's so many nice things!

[xFezIsAFreakx]

This is actually breathtaking! I have bits and pieces of the Store Content, but probably so much would be replaced and I don't think I'd do a great job of trying to regain the beauty! So lovely though, wish I had these skills.

[sharpsiren]

Wow, that's really gorgeous! I love fairies and would love to try to download this.

[Neashaleigh]

Thank you. Unfortunately there isn't (yet) any fairy-type items in the base game or expansions. Not until Supernatural comes out. So I've had to resort to store content to make it look authentic. This means that if people don't have all the items, they'll be replaced, which might take away from the experience a bit. It's sad, but when Supernatural comes out I plan on making some more fairy-type houses.

[Schipperke]

Of all the houses I've seen here, this is the one I most want.  I'll have to check my store stuff to get an idea of how similar it would look after downloading.

Neashaleigh, when you check the price, can you also include the lot size?  Thanks.

Of course I totally forgot about those when I was uploading it. I'll do that this morning.

[Neashaleigh]

My first post is ammended to include size of lot and costs.

[Lilygirl]

I have to commend you, Neashaleigh, on putting in all that effort to look up, list, and include links for all the Store Items in this build. Thank you for the effort!

It's a delightful and unique house, thank-you for sharing.

Thank you It took me ages this morning to compile that list. I hope it makes it easier for people... especially as I'm aware that there is so much store stuff in this house.

I guess I'm a store junkie

[sharpsiren]

I'm so glad you are going to do more fairy-related stuff once the EP comes out. I was going to ask, but I didn't want to be pushy! Thanks for all your hard work and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Wow ! This is absolutely stunning. The decor is just so perfect. You are such a super builder. I really can't wait for fall to get those new Expansions . These type of buildings are going to be so perfect. Thanks for sharing !
