SEA-CLUSION, 40x40 residential lot, 9/8/13Unfortunately, my studio became full and had exceeded the quota limit, so had to start deleting some of my studio items - this is one of them. :(
PICTURESThis house was created for leep44508's "Sim's Safe Haven Contest". The challenge was to create any type of build that was considered to be a safe place for your sim. I went with a rock star who wanted to get away from the public eye.
Sea-clusion is a modern beach home designed for rock star Johnny Robbins. He treasures his privacy and enjoys getting away from the limelight when he’s not on tour or staying at his city apartment. He considers this place his safe haven, a place where he can go to relax, unwind, entertain his guests and be protected from the public eye and the paparazzi. It’s totally private with a gated driveway entrance and security gates at all entrances into the home. Once inside the gates and up the stairs to the main level, you’ll be greeted to the private enclosed courtyard pool and terrace. Since one of Johnny’s passions is surfing, he had a beautiful ocean wave mural painted on the wall adjacent to the pool featuring hand laid mosaic tiles. Also off the courtyard and situated directly above the garage is a separate music studio with soundproofed walls and a convenient bathroom. Johnny’s band members will often come to visit and they really enjoy their jam sessions in this space.

The house was designed with entertaining and relaxation in mind. Located on the main level is an open concept dining room/living room which includes a piano and a fireplace, a large kitchen with breakfast bar and a spacious TV room that’s open to the top level. Stone accents the walls in both the TV room and the living room.

A major focal point on this floor is the gigantic aquarium built between the TV room and the game room. The game room features a pool table, a bar, a stereo and built-in seating.

The top level consists of a split bedroom floor plan so that the master suite is private from the two guest bedrooms. Also on this floor is a separate office, an open loft style reading nook with balcony access, and a 4 piece guest bathroom situated near the guest bedrooms. Walls of windows are located in all 3 bedrooms and overlook the courtyard pool. The corridor to the two bedroom wings is open to the TV room below, and captures the ocean views through the windows in the two-story tall TV room.

There are four balconies in this home to take in the magnificent scenery: a large terrace shared by the master bedroom and reading area, a deck off the kitchen with an outdoor kitchen and stairs to access the beach below, and two small walk-out balconies - one between the kitchen and dining room (accessed through a walkway tucked behind the staircase) and the 2nd one off the larger guest bedroom.
The double garage on the ground level houses Johnny’s sports cars and has an entry into the basement with easy access to the spiral stairs leading up to the main level. The basement level is Johnny’s favorite area. It contains a gym, a bathroom with shower, a refrigerator and counter to keep beverages and snacks handy, a laundry room, another gaming area with a large picture window looking directly into the pool. (The garage also has a view into the opposite side of the pool.) The gaming area has seating space, table tennis, darts and an arcade game. After a hard workout in the gym, Johnny enjoys getting pampered in the massage room which includes an attached sauna room.

Also in the basement is access to a 2nd garage where he keeps his boat, and access to the outdoor basketball court. In the back corner on the other side of the pool sits a private studio apartment where his personal masseuse/housekeeper and her husband live full-time. Her husband takes care of the property for Johnny so he doesn’t have to worry about any maintenance or yard work.
