The twenty-second house in my "1920s Series" - inspired by 62 Beautiful Vintage Home Designs from the 1920s - is an economical Square Colonial. According to the brochure: "square type [houses] are usually in demand by those who figure costs carefully for they offer the most space for the money expended..." Well, this house is definitely square. It is 8T X 8T. And, much like House #20 in this series, I built it with economy in mind (though the paint may be a bit more colorful in this one.) It is built with sturdy economical windows, doors, counters, cabinets, etc. and it's "6 Rooms and Bath" with added Carriage House garage and full basement come in right around $32K.





I kinda feel like I cheated by using the spiral stairs... But, I really wanted to keep the size of this house a square. The spiral stairs was by far the best solution!


Please scroll through all the above pictures to see everything this house has to offer. Furniture for this house includes a double bed, nightstand with alarm clock, loveseat, and a dining table. All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included. The telephone is on the wall in the kitchen. The front door is burglar alarmed. The range has a smoke alarm.


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. Pictures were taken with Invisible Fire Alarms in place, but the lot is packaged without that mod. So, you will see the fire alarm over the stove in the kitchen. Pictures were also taken with the Invisible Driveway, but the lot is not packaged with it. I highly recommend both invisifying options! .


CC list - used but NOT included - so, GO get it:
- Unlevel Wall - #90 by Numenor @ MTS2 - used to fix wonky wall issues. Some people weren't sure how to install this wall... Click the info button down below to see how I did it
- Lifestyle Build Bundle - It's the second link in the top post - extracted from Lifestyle Stories by Argon @ MATY. Many of the wallpapers used in this 1920s series come from this bundle.
- Whitewood REC of SSN Stormproof Door by Michelle @ MTS
- White Wood Fence/No posts by Huge Lunatic (HL) @ MTS2

...and I highly recommend getting:
- Invisible Smoke Alarm by pfish @ MTS2
- Invisible Driveway by Sophie-David @ MTS2


Custom Content Included:
- Deck Stairs main by Numenor @ MTS2 - no script file needed as these override the original stairs.
- Deck Stairs REC - Washed White by HugeLunatic (HL) @ MTS2
- Stair Corner Wooden by Spaik/Slaved by HL @ SimsArtists
- VIP Door 1T by Huge Lunatic (HL) @ MTS2
- Value Arch 2T by fanseefish @ LeeFish


Standard mods I use that are not necessary nor included - but were probably used whilst building/photo-ing/prepping this house for upload...
If you need help installing Numenor's Unlevel Wall #90, click this info button:

I use Niol/Moi's Roof Shader for brighter roofs
And, HW/Honeywell's A Little Greyer: Roof Trim Defaults
Then, if it's a Bespoke Roof recolor - it will be THESE adjusted versions by The Llama Park/Tumblr that you see used in the pictures.
(However, what you get in the packaged file, will either be the plain EA roof or the straight, un-modified Bespoke roof from the set here on MTS2.)
Maranatah's White Wall Top texture replacement
Moo's Turn On/Off Lights
Menaceman's Lunatech Lighting Fix
BeosBoxBoy's no-red-pause-mod
Nopke's Go Under Spiral Stairs mod for proper spiral stair usage
And, of course, everyone needs Numenor's CEP and SEP!
I also use FRAPs to take in-game pictures, and PhotoShop to clean/collage said pictures.
And, I highly recommend using gummilutt's Invisible Medicine Cabinet to add features to any mirror - as per her policy, it's not used or included in this lot.


Lot Size: 2x2
Lot Price (furnished): $32,364
