ACKNEY-UPON-SHERNE CREATORS' COLLABORATION, Aug 2021 - Mar 2022
A community project with themed builds for a traditional English village, hosted by suzses . The make-believe named English village world is a modified version of EA's Riverview and was tweaked and edited by Hidehi to create the English landscape. This post features the builds that I contributed to this project. In case you missed the forum post about Ackney-upon-Sherne, here is the link again.
***Builds are listed in descending chronological order***

Inspired by the home that was featured in the movie "The Holiday", this cozy two-story English cottage has 2 bdrms, 1-1/2 baths, a den, laundry space and 3 fireplaces. The interiors have a cozy, lived-in look with an eclectic decor style and was based off of pictures taken from the movie. (This was my very first contribution to this project and I really enjoyed researching the photos from this movie so I could create a sim version. It happens to be one of my favorite movies and I've seen it multiple times. 😀
