You made this look so much better! BFF house next? I've always thought there should be a garage or pool with how large their yard is!

[@holladaytimes]

For the BFF house, there's one missing window by the kitchen that drives me insane!

[@bailey626]

Yes that house is so strange!

[@ryanf109]

This looks fantastic! Really appreciate how you kinda kept the original vibe rather than just make a whole new house. Honestly would love for this to be a series where you eventually get to all the houses in base game haha.

[@MelissaLawrence2002]

The Spencer-Kim-Lewis house needs Jesus. It's horrific.

[@littlestbroccoli]

😂😂😂 Truth

[@marinakukenbach3851]

With the brown roof and the flowers alone it already looks better!

[@orichidsspace]

I love when renovations are truly renovations not just rebuilds. This is so good love your take on the design.

[@missDoubleU1]

Oh it looks so much better! Thank you for keeping the main shape of the house btw I really appreciate it when basegame renos don't majorly change the house shell!

[@HonestInsightsTarot]

Omg Tonya. The before is like a dusty, dank House Flipper house in the before shots. You made it feel very homey and cozy.

[@Gryphi]

thank you!! The original definitely needed some work haha

[@kowhaiii]

What a lovely renovation!! It's so warm and inviting, and I'd love to see more BG / DLC build renos using limited / no packs :D ❤

[@shannaandersonzongo8128]

Beautiful update! I feel like this is what the house would look like after a couple bought that sad starter and spent their lives building it up and improving it and now they’re retired and raising their grandkids.

[@emilydonut3262]

I have been using renovated basegame builds now on my second EA account which just has basegame and kits

[@ajbabay]

Would love to see a reno of this with For Rent so you could make the top part a little studio apartment. Love this for base game only!

[@amelieh9499]

it turned out so lovely! very warm and comfy ❤ would loooooove to see more renovations of base game houses

[@taylorrose7834]

Love this 🤩 this refresh is lovely and you should keep this up! I love the idea of renovating the old janky ea builds. Can you do the Landgraab mansion in oasis springs next? 🌴

[@tiffanymoore3182]

I know it isn't a pretty house but it really bugs me that every simmer that renos this house changes it from its origins. Like the shape, roof pitch and tall walls were on purpose for cooling the shotgun style house. Gryphy did keep the double front doors and layout so they were the closest. In RL double shotgun style houses just get torn down instead of preserved.

[@lefty.-.journals]

sul sul! i downloaded this house on my console, and my sim was a writer and wouldnt let me publish books in the mail box because of the bush around it! just thought id let you know

[@skyechimes658]

The new nursery kit DOES have a changing table. The code for changing tables was put in the base game, even though the item itself was in the Growing Together pack - which is part of what was fueling the “changing tables should have been in the infant base game patch” controversy. That’s why so many cc creators were able to make “base game compatible “ changing tables as soon as get together came out, the code was right there. I’m pretty sure the reason they did it was so that more changing tables could be added later more easily, but it did fuel the “this should be free” controversy. Interestingly the nursery kit changing table does work with base game only, however it doesn’t have a slot for trash cans/laundry hampers to snap to it, so all the dirty diapers go on the floor.

[@barborasvandova7899]

It looks great! And just with base game... I would love if you could renovate other houses with base game in this town, especially those that are more than $20 000. It would be a project, but I would love if you could renovate Spencer-Kim Lewis' house and the mansion that is in neighbourhood with them. Those two are nightmare and I would gladly get those renovations for my safe file just so I can avoid doing it myself.

[@az25blue]

Great job! The original build is definitely a bit sad lol. I know it's a big ask but if you did a series renovating every base game home with the same theme/budget, etc., I wouldn't be mad 😅

[@hime986]

Love to see you do Willow creek as a whole

[@wolfieboy4452]

I think the idea of the different wall heights in The Sims 4 is great, but it just doesn’t work the majority of the time.

[@emilydonut3262]

2:19 a good house to renovate next would be either the pancakes house or the bff house 😊

[@louisebarber3503]

I'd love to see this again but not limited to base game 🙂

[@mickers296]

Ooh, I love this so much! The brown on the outside really warms it up and gives it more dimension. I love how you keep the original vibe, rather than completely changing the house. It's more like an actual reno this way! And honestly, I would love to see you renovate all the EA builds in all the worlds (for the original family, if applicable) using just the base game + that pack! You have such a good eye for design and decor, and I'd love to be able to place your builds in all my saves, haha. Another fantastic job here, Tonya! ♥

[@krbridge1023]

Weirdest house on the game lol

[@aviiletters]

Could you do this series but in another world like Windenburg, base game and get together?

[@mayho7427]

Huge request: Please would it be possible to renovate cypress terrace next…

[@meeowys]

Ooo this does look like a home now. I redid this as a crazy cat chef owner with a flat attached in the front. Can't wait to see the next reno

[@littlestbroccoli]

Love all the browns and oranges in this house, we need to bring that back to interior design!!

[@christopherwilliam9034]

Hi, guys. Nice to see you! Why The Sims 4 not use cars item like the last series?

[@pim9107]

It’s so nice. I hope this renovate share in game gallery 😊🎉❤

[@skyechimes658]

I love how this came out! It’s got the dated but maintained charm the original was going for but didn’t achieve. You really brought out the potential in this build.

[@Gryphi]

Thank you!!

[@nickylawoozworld]

Not only 3 swatches on ur favorite couch now! Lol

[@justynaaleksiejuk1802]

Still voting for the Kim-Lewis house!

[@JeffreySherman-p5n]

You forgot the fire alarm for the stove, Lol

[@chelseybligen2385]

This looks amazing!! Idk if you have before but I’d love to see you build a late 90s/early 2000s styled split foyer home ❤

[@WHAATEVEN]

i literally never use this house but this looks so good!! can’t wait to give renovation a go myself now

[@gayroach2916]

Um im sorry when did those couches start existing wtf

[@missDoubleU1]

They are base game couches that have always been in the game. She added the pillows seperately to the couch...pillows were a recent addition to the game from a log in event.

[@MeawLai]

Love it ❤

[@starryeyed1361]

i love all the bird decorations! very nostalgic lol

[@marciamarques2899]

the guitar is a free pack everyone gets, like the free holiday stuff

[@littlestbroccoli]

Is the rug in the nursery one of these? I can't find that in my game

[@marciamarques2899]

@@littlestbroccoli the rug is base game, from the infants update, I think the main swatch is triangles, but not sure

[@marciamarques2899]

@@littlestbroccoli it's the mountains rug, at 8:48 you can see where it is

[@littlestbroccoli]

@@marciamarques2899 Oh great, tysm. I never changed the swatch on that one somehow so far! The mtns are so cute

[@BusyBusyPanda]

Aw man I really wanted to love this build even though it's not the right colors the short windows are just wrong. A Shotgun Camelback in this style really has to have floor to ceiling windows. 1:00 you delete them here for short windows & flower boxes. That's just not right even if the end product is still really pretty.

[@Gryphi]

I wanted to keep the floor to ceiling windows but the swatches didn't match!

[@BusyBusyPanda]

@@Gryphi while I see your point most things in life don't match. If the Sims 4 has more things that reasonably compliment each other it would be easier to mix & match when things didn't match.

[@LunarsimmerYT]

This looks so much better!!! ❤

[@AnnabelleMiyamoto-v6y]

Daugherty Creek

[@coda_o7]

looks so good ❤

[@autumnuit]

loved it!

[@MF-cj9ln]

This is so fun! I'm not that familiar with the original houses so it would be nice if you could do a "before" tour before starting the Reno so I could fully appreciate the changes! Thanks for reading!

[@LilithAlywn]

I literally just started playing with the original version of this house and had so many questions about the design lol I will happily download your renovated version. Thank you!
