32 Lot-Adjusted Empty Lots

Have you always wanted to build on small 1X1 lots? Or have a smaller sized beach lot for your surfer shack? Well, now you can! I have done all the Lot-Adjusting work for you. 😉

These lots were made with the UC installed. If you don't have all the EPs/SPs (or at least AL/M&G as your highest one,) you prolly can't use these! (I provided links below, for similar "empty lot" collections - some of them don't need all EP/SPs.)

ALL possible lot sizes are included (within the game's original size limit of 6X6) - including Beach lots.

LotCatalog Refresh Project ~ a complete Lot Bin overhaul

This is a Complete Overhaul of the Lot Bin. Every lot has been fixed, improved, cleaned, and now comes with a custom thumbnail. Many of the lots have been shrunk, and several of them have 2-Step foundations... After installing these files, the next time you generate a new TS2 Saved Game your lot catalog ("Lot Bin") should look a lot better, and the houses should be easier to use. Your sims will be able to move-in and start living - without having to worry about missing fire alarms and telephones, nasty sim references, or if they paid too much for extra acreage they just don't need. I really tried to keep EA/Maxis' original intent for the houses in the Lot Bin. They are meant to be a "starting point" for your sim families. I tried to keep each lot's original 'flavor'... Every Lot Bin house/lot has been edited and has a custom thumbnail...

This is a Complete Overhaul of the Specialty Lot Bin.

Every property (17 apartments and 2 hotels) has been edited, fixed, improved, cleaned, and now comes with a custom thumbnail. Many of the lots have been shrunk, and three of them have 2-Step foundations.

After installing these files, the next time you open your Specialty Lot Bin, it should look a lot better, and the apartments should be easier to use. Your sims will be able to move-in and start living - without having to worry about missing fire alarms, telephones, and nasty sim references.

#57 Road To Nowhere, Strangetown

Maxis Make-over

2022 Update - Now with only 1 CC (Marvine's Ladder.) If you flip through all the included pictures, you'll see what I've changed... I wanted to keep it as close to what EAxis originally made - but - have it also be a bit more playable and aesthetically pleasing (to my taste anyway!) LOL!

196 Main Street, Desiderata Valley

~ Maxis Make-Over #25 ~

This house [the Maxis original] can be found in Desiderata Valley - 196 Main Street. I tried to keep the look and feel much the same as how Maxis built it, BUT make it more suited to my playing style and decorative tastes. For instance: I like stairs with a landing, and formal dining areas that are separate from the living areas... there needed to be a garage added (I hate cars parked all willy nilly about the place!) The original upstairs was just wasted space (to my way of thinking) and just what, WHAT are we supposed to do with that little dead-end hallway next to the stairs (in the original design?) *sigh* I dunno. So, I changed it.

2022 Update: Any CC you see in the pictures has been removed - it now only has the stairs, listed below. And yes, the red roof needs to be changed... 😕

Custom Content Included: - HL's Recolorable Chic Stairs and Open underneath Chic Stairs

120 Siena St ~ Maxis Make-Over: Now with driveway and basement 

This started out as one of my "Quick Edits", but then I couldn't keep the price under $20K (as the original was) and I kinda lost track of what I was doing... 😅 So... now this place is fully decked out in a decidedly male/sports themed style. I finished plumbing out the bathroom - it has a water closet and a walk-in shower. Both bedrooms have mirrored closets. The kitchen has upgraded appliances and a microwave, with counter top eating space for four. Outside you will find a new patio with a grill and mini-fridge (gotta keep the beverages cool while you're workin' on the car!) and a carport.
