I turned the worst house into apartments - The Sims 4

[@NocturnallyNyx]

Oh that was my comment lol! The stairs to nowhere house! I'm so glad you picked this one! Your build is so much better Deli!

[@deligracy]

Thank you for the idea!

I kind of want a segment in the livestreams where whoever is responsible explains their decisions on things like the stairs to nowhere and the missing toilets...

[@Shadow8Star]

It seems like they just ran out of time and slapped together a few buildings right before release.

[@one_mel_swoop]

At this point I'm convinced that they do these awful builds on purpose, just for people to talk about it.

[@EyeKahnography]

It really feels like someone accidentally moved the stairs in the back and it auto deleted the door for being in the way oops and no one caught it before launch. The poor Charm family o.0 I really appreciate they have relied on more Simmers with building talent to help create the starter homes after this. Would it be too much to give us a couple more lots in there though?

[@deligracy]

That would be so funny

[@deligracy]

@@one_mel_swoopI’m kinda not mad about it cause it has become entertaining and fun to renovate 😂

[@ZachPizazz]

The way this house was originally makes me think it was a "Build a house in 15 minutes and don't delete anything" challenge

[@Chet_Thornbushel]

This is super cute. I imagine the downstairs sim would be elderly and actually own the home and once their family was grown they had the upstairs turned into an apartment to rent because they no longer needed such a large space. It would be fun gameplay to have the downstairs resident be a kindly witch since they’re in the magic pack.

[@deligracy]

I actually made downstairs “apartment 1” because I was thinking the same thing!

[@casey54321]

I love when you do CC builds. There are so many awesome creators out there that absolutely deserve the recognition. And since it can be overwhelming to first dip your toe into CC, these videos give folks a nice idea of where to start!

[@deligracy]

I totally agree! Thanks

[@annasmith4911]

That stairway to nowhere in the back always makes me think of the Winchester mystery house that also has stairways to nowhere and doors that go nowhere 😂

[@rosameryrojas-delcerro1059]

Actually the strange architecture was not intentional at all. Sarah herself was the architect and told the builders what she wanted, and just kept building, probably because she was bored. Alot was not up to building codes (very loose back then anyway) so a large part of the house collapsed in the 1906 Earthquake. So all those stairs and doors DID go somewhere until 1906. Then she didn't live long enough to rebuild her mansion. It was bequeathed to her niece and the niece sold it to people who invented the ghost story BS, forgetting to mention the Earthquake collapse just to sell tickets to the house owned by an eccentric old rich lady. I grew up near the Winchester House but have never visited, we were taught the real story in school, so we know that it is literally just that, a tourist trap.

[@fateme8103]

Your voice is so calming. I can't blame Bowser. I literally watch your builds before bed. I feel relaxed 😊

[@claofna]

Not just Bowser finds your voice soothing. Sometimes I put on your old videos and I find them so relaxing that we and my cat both fall asleep so peacefully! It's a compliment I promise!

[@danawilliams5622]

Omg I updated this house SO long ago that I forgot what it originally looked like! I was like, "What?? What's wrong with this house? I love it." Then I saw the original, and I was like ohhhhhh. Yeah, I don't love that 😂

[@deligracy]

Watching this just after midnight, hubby snoring along with Bowser. Makes me giggle cause its quite adorable (especially when i realise we are also James and Maddi 😅😅😅)

[@UnusedOldAccount123]

This is so beautiful, also I love hearing Bowser snore, makes the video more relaxing and cozy somehow 😊

[@foranzo1582]

I sometimes wonder if simmers remember about F5 placing. You don't always have to struggle with alt placing and worrying if windows etc are still of the same height 😅 The outside of the house is stunning!! I love the added balconies :}

[@skyechimes658]

I appreciate you limiting the number of cc packs per build and stating upfront which ones you will be using on the build. I don’t use CC because my pc is a potato that has badly needed updating for awhile but keeps dropping on the priority list ( replacing my roof was expensive) - but the way you do it means that if I really wanted a build, I could get it without downloading a million pieces of cc from different creators. There are so many amazing CC creators and it’s so interesting to see even if I probably won’t use it myself.

[@deligracy]

Yeah I like this method too, I think it also highlights the creator more clearly to help support them. Cc can be overwhelming otherwise!

[@jessjessjess222]

I love open space/open living but wow, when you actually have “rooms” for everything, it feels much more homey. You can stylize it and make it more personal too. I think this kind of layout works best for eclectic/maximalist people and the more open living works more for minimalism. Another amazing build, deli! 💌

[@fantasyditz]

I think you forgot the fridge upstairs 😂 it's clearly a tradition now. Beautiful build! Have Happy Holidays!

[@iboken39]

I just found your channel few days ago and I’m glad!, your builds are gorgeous and your videos are calming. definitely my new favorite sims content creator!

[@RicanStarz]

I love all the CC you added. I have them and need to use them more often. I have so much CC that I tend to forget about these gems. ❤

[@MissHummingbird]

I'm not going to lie. I opened up this lot to renovate and I thought I did something with the stairs before even starting. I was so confused😅 I personally turned mine into a magical library... I love the little display plate idea though. my grandmother did that with teacups and when she passed each of us got one😊 i adore the second house

[@eddiecummings513]

Where I’m from in the US, it’s very common for old American Foursquare homes to be converted into apartments. Typically one unit on the first level, and another unit taking up the second level and attic. The upstairs unit usually has its own dedicated entrance from the outside utilizing an existing back staircase. That could be a fun idea for a build! Love your content.

I feel like this house was inspired by the Winchester Mystery House, hence the stairs to nowhere (the mansion famously had doors and stairs that took to nowhere) and the art nouveau style. So if I had to renovate this house I would go full crazy with it, just like the Winchester Mystery House. I feel like that adds some story to it.
