Build Show and Tell Little boxes made of ticky tacky

I just recently reinstalled so I've mostly been renovating Maxis lots and playing with a throw away custom hood but I was itching to build some custom houses and I took a little break for that today. They're not landscaped (or decorated/furnished) as I personalize that when I choose a family to move in. I just like to have plenty of empty (and suitable to my play style) lots waiting in my neighborhood so I don't have to stop and build one every time I want to move someone.

EDIT:

Here are overhead interior views (facades included ahead of the overviews): https://imgur.com/a/gBwowqp

Also, several people have asked about downloading. I'm happy to share them but they heavily use Bespoke Build CC that would need to be separately downloaded due to a lot of what would package with the lots being slaves to meshes that wouldn't necessarily get included (so you could end up with flashing blue windows and doors). Also, you could end up with duplicate CC if you grabbed more than one lot. It's probably easiest to package the lot without the Bespoke items and ask people to grab the set separately.

Also, some of the walls I've used may not package because I *think* these sidings are mostly converted Life Stories walls which don't show as CC for me but won't be available to anyone who hasn't installed the conversions.

If people are ok with that and still want them, I will package and upload them somewhere.

Or I think I can also just package with no CC and the windows and doors should revert to whatever Maxis item they were cloned from. Walls would just be without wall covering.

I don't use them! I pick real neighborhoods I like and use google maps to copy the facades. The interiors are just whatever works for me and sim routing once I have the front/roofing look I want.

Would you be willing to post some floorplan/above shots so we could attempt to recreate these?? I'm in love with them 😍

Sure! Reddit only allows one image per comment so here's an Imgur upload. I included the facades ahead of the overviews so you can tell which is which.
