Since this house was built for a contest I used quite a few store items (no actual CC) but I hate to make people feel like they have to pay for something or they can’t use the house so I’ve divided the list into items that are required but can probably be replaced by in game objects or CC and objects that are just decor/space fillers that can be removed and/or replaced without ruining the playability of the lot.

Required for game play but can easily be replaced with in game objects:
Bauhaus Stupendous Door
Classic Credenza (Dresser)
Dual Comfort Double Bed
Rockin’ Stationary Roadcase (1-tile dresser)
Hip chair
Overly General Dining chair
Pump-less Waterwork Sink

Decor/space fillers (not essential to game play, just for prettiness):
Ultramodern End Table
The Big Cheese Coat Rack
Loitering Luggage
Sweet Masses Chromodynamic Candy Dish
3-plant long planter from the Renault set
New Years Nectar – Champagne bottle
Terra – potted palm
Perfect Place Shelf
Palm light (+Fan)
Jazz Me Up Photo Series
The Curve
Perpetual Long ceiling Lamp
Friendly Office Lamp
Tropical Leaves of Repose
Traveler's Choice Hat Box
Telephone from Gens Registration gift pack

Please note some of these items come from the Ultra Lounge set which EA have taken off sale (thanks) so if you don’t own them you will not be able to buy them but as I said above, there’s nothing really that can’t be replaced, will just take a little effort on your part

Testing showed the following:
1. One of the green chairs in the garden creates a route failure when you try to use it. The only cure was to pull it a few tiles out from the wall which I didn't want to do for aesthetics so it remains as decor only. The other two work perfectly fine.
2. Because of the shrubs along the back wall only one side of the hot tub is accessible but you can always scoot to the opposite seat so the hot tub is still useable.

Lot Price: F93,216, U52,285
