Build’n’Share Challenge #41
A Taste For Finer Things
You are engrossed in the latest issue of 'Dwell' when Rose’s dog begins barking frantically in alarm. You rush across your office and throw open your door to see a tall, spindly man with a very unhappy white cat hissing and digging its claws into the man’s shoulder. Rose is trying desperately to restrain her uncharacteristically agitated dog and shoots you a look that clearly says 'HELP!'
“Why don’t you come in my office, sir,” you say, motioning to the office behind you. The man rushes past you into the office. As soon as the door closes, the cat becomes docile and begins to purr. Like its owner, the cat is long and thin, with white fur, faint grey striping, and the largest ears you’ve ever seen on a cat.
“What a peculiar cat. I’ve never seen one like that before, Mister..?”
“Corbett. Niles Corbett. My companion is Buerre Blanc. She is a Devon Rex.”
“It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Corbett. I apologize for the welcoming committee. My assistant's dog is usually very friendly, but this is the first time we've had a feline visitor. What can I do for you?” Mr. Corbett is a sour-looking man with a long face, a heavy brow, and a small down-turned mouth. His clothes are understated but clearly made of fine fabrics.
“Well, I'm in need of a new home for myself and Buerre Blanc,” he says, stroking the cat's pale fur. “I am a professional food critic and author of the blog 'Pour L'Assiette'. I work from home, so I need something with a comfortable study. I would also like two bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom, and another full bathroom for the rest of the house. I don't need a lot of room, as it's just Buerre Blanc and me, but I would like quality furnishings and a well-appointed kitchen with an attached room for wine storage. I am a collector of fine wines, so the wine storage should have separate temperature controls.”
“Is there a particular style of home you prefer, Mr. Corbett?”
“I gravitate toward French Country architecture. I enjoy the stately architecture and formal aesthetic.”
“What kind of budget are we dealing with, and how soon would you like your new home completed?”
“Apartment life has grown quite tiresome for me. Buerre Blanc and I are both ready for the quiet of our own home. We would like to be out of our apartment in two weeks. As for the budget, I am prepared to spend up to 95,000 and not a penny more. I trust that is feasible?”
“Absolutely! I will get started immediately!”

ENTRY DETAILS:
A French Country Cottage built on a moderate 30 x 20 in Newcrest. Plan is modified from a house I stayed at in the french country side in the 90s. The house is decorated with fine well built furniture based on what was actually in the real house. On the main floor as you come into the house are 2 arches leading to, on the left the living room and on the right the dining room with the kitchen behind it with a walk- in Wine storage room. Upstairs are 2 bedrooms and a study. The master bedroom contains a en-suite bathroom. The second bathroom for the house is located on the second floor at the front of the house. The Back patio/yard contains a Barbecue and dining set for sims to sit and relax. Also located in the back patio is a small garden for your Sims to plant their own Produce.
As I said this is based on a house I stayed in for about a month it was more orange in shade and had a 3 car garage workroom with a guest suite above which is where I stayed. It was quite lovely but far more over grown with a pool and on a fairly large lot of land I think about 3 acres.
