Is it a House, Vineyard, Nectary, Dance Club or Gym …?
The more you investigate, you will find out it is all of the above.

This build is an aggressive build that combines many aspects of my smaller builds into one large Training Facility for young Sims. It provides everything a Sim needs to Live, Work, Train and Party like no tomorrow. Manned with a suitable Tutor, 3 Young Adult Sims can get into the best shape of their lives, while working and putting away enough money to eventually get out there and start a family with more than a book full of knowledge and a pocketful of change.
Above ground, the establishment has a rustic feel, but accesses an Open Air design.
In short … if your Sim Hates the Outdoors, this is not the place for you.



The Vineyard contains 102 fruit bearing plants and trees, all cultivated and fertilized, as well as already produced to Perfect Grade. Its is not that hard to manage the vineyard with 3 residents, but almost impossible to have any free-time if you try it with one. Unlike most vineyard designs, I didn't crowd the plants unreasonably, to allow for a more relaxed look. There are no large blanketed areas of straight rows.

If the question ever comes up as to what the cash end of the vineyard is about, there is a full-scale Nectary in the cellar. With enough room to store 1500 bottles of nectar, you may be surprised to know that the download comes with two thirds of the storage capacity filled already. All nectars Included in the download are between 2,000 and 20,000 simoleons a bottle (you can find some good recipes if you read the bottle descriptions). The are two upgraded nectar makers, separated by a fridge to keep your produce fresh.


*Note … Not shown in the picture above, but included in the download, there is a red treasure chest located in the Nectary that contains a decent amount of fruit … including some kinds I did not plat, and a good deal of applicable fertilizer to get started with while you settle in.

Okay … up until now we have covered the work aspect of the build, but who wants to be all work no play? To help train your Sims as athletes, the build has a state-of art Workout Facility in the basement. The facility includes 4 elliptical runners, and 2 workout benches. Televisions and a stereo are available for enjoyment as you work out. To the right-hand side of the Workout Area, a hallway leads to two full bathrooms complete with showers and shared access to the Club Area. The left-hand side of the Workout Area leads to 2 hot tubs in a separate room, complete with their own entertainment center, and also with shared access to the Club Area.

The club has 2 bars, table seating as well, a stage with instruments, club lighting and a dance floor. The soothing light and deco style provide everything you need to entertain friends or advance your music skill. There are also 2 "built-in" Teleporter Rooms along the outside wall of the Club Area not occupied by the stage.

All in all, there are 18 upgradeable appliances or electronics included in the download, and the Testing Team has already upgraded them all to one specification or another. As mentioned before, the vineyard is planted, fertilized and already producing fruit for your immediate use. Fruits planted include Life Plants, Flame Bushes, Watermelon Vines, and all the available grapes in the game. Fruit bearing trees included in the build grow Plums, Pomelos, Pomegranates and Cherries. All plants are Perfect Grade.
There is NO Custom Content in this build!
All I can say is that the testing staff seemed to enjoy themselves with this build.

Have Fun … Happy Simming,
BlackSand
