Carnelian was created on the lot at 2400 Pinochle Point, Sunset Valley and tested at 60 Maywood Lane, same 'hood. Any 40x30 flat lot would be suitable. I also tested it in Bridgeport. SEE NOTES BELOW..
Carnelian is a modern, contemporary house aimed at the Sim couple sometimes classified these days as 'empty nesters' [or a professional couple without dependants ] who like to entertain friends and associates at pool parties and barbeques, but who also value their personal space. It is a 3storey, 1 bedroom/2bathroom home with a 2car garage and a gated pool deck.
A comfortably furnished reception/sittingroom occupies the whole of the ground floor - plenty of cushioned seating, a grand piano and bookcase, plus the full-wall aquarium allows a see-through to the pools beyond. Double glass doors at the back of this room allow easy entry to the pool deck.
Access to the second level is gained via a single stair to the right of the front door . . . here will be found [in order of appearance], a very well equipped kitchen with it's own meals area for quick snacks and informal eating, a more formal diningroom with glass table and modern stool seating; this morphs into the TV lounge and another conversation corner in front of the windows overlooking the pools.
The upper floor is strictly residents only as it's sole function is as bedroom and/or retreat. Here is a luxurious, 4poster bed and the usual bedroom accoutrements, plus a sittingroom and a glasstopped desk with notebook computer. A full service ensuite bathroom completes this level.
If future accommodation needs decreed, this floor could comfortably provide a further 2 or 3 rooms at small effort/cost and with minimal disruption to the household.
The outdoor entertaining aspect dominates the landscaping of the grounds. A 4-pool complex with lighting and fountains has centre-stage adjacent to the house - this has gates at all entry points [there are three]. Loungers with sunshades are provided for lazing after a swim session - or there is a pair of machines for more structured exercise activity. Just off the paved pool- deck area, under the beautiful red oaks, is a firepit with seating, garden lights and an outdoor stereo. On the garage end of the deck is a state-of-the-art barbeque grill ; cafe-style seating is provided. There are no small plantings requiring ongoing maintenance, just some mature palms and those stately oaks.
[Carnelian -sometimes called 'cornelian' - is a variety of Chalcedony, in a deep red-brown colouration].

The TSR Creations below were used in this Creation.
This is a marcorse original work. You may not re-upload it anywhere, use it as a templete to build a lot for upload [you may do anything you like in your own game LOL] or claim it as your own work . I have the following installed on my base-game: WA/A/LN. HELS/FL/OL. My game is patched to 7.3.2 . . including the 1.24 base-game patch.
BRIDGEPORT TEST. When I was checking out the other towns for a likely test space I found that 40x30 lots are pretty scarce in Twinbook and next to non-existent in Bridgeport. Also the 'make your own lot' tool doesn't have a 40x30 size option - this is a really bad oversight, I feel - . . . . so I went real estate shopping in Bridgeport. I didn't like the looks of that rundown, ramshackle 'dance club', The Grind, on the wharves. I demolished it with great pleasure and 'built' Carnelian there. It settled down as though made for that exact space. What an improvement to the scenic appeal of this seedy area. Perhaps you might like to do the same in your Bridgeport? Just don't forget to rezone the lot 'residential' after your demolition. Just for interest sake, in my previews, I have included a camera shot of the house there.
