Thanks to nice-and-quiet for sending this 1910 purple Edwardian in Bridgeport, Connecticut. It's a 2 family currently being used as a single family. According to the description, it can be converted back by replacing a wall that was taken down, so they don't list how many bds. and baths there are. $399K.
I imagine that the wall they removed was here in the entrance hall b/c these would be the stairs to the 2nd fl. apt.
The wall would likely go where the column is. Isn't that unusual? They exposed a chimney and placed a decorative structure around it.
Two sitting rooms may have been combined into one.
This home is very creative. Look at the dining room ceiling. And, there's also a fireplace.
The kitchen is adorable. The floor looks original and look at the reproduction stove. They even built in an armoire for a pantry. Looks like they put beams on the ceiling, too. Look at the little island they made out of a nightstand.
This looks like a bedroom upstairs.
I don't care much for what they did with this kitchen. I'm thinking that a wall was taken down to make it one open space.
If this was turned back into a 2 family, this could be a combination kitchen/living room.
This is one of the bathrooms and it's been remodeled.
Not sure what they did here. Is that a glass wall? I wish they would've shown this piece on the right. I want to say it's a fireplace?
In the attic, literally under the eaves, is a cozy apt. Cute living room.
Here's a little dining area.
Cute kitchen. This is very creative.
Here's a cozy bedroom too. I love the wall.
And, here's a nice vintage bathroom. They made a cute apt. without having to open the roof.
There's a balcony up here.
Looking down at the yard- love the checkered lawn.
What a lovely garden.
It's like a fairytale.
This is the front of the stone garage. It looks medieval, doesn't it?
And, this back, so you park around the block and come out the back of the garage.
What a unique, creative home.

If YOU!! Yes you!! If you love mystery games (like prof. Layton), Sherlock, Titanic, Welcome Home, literally anything from the 1860s-1930s, you are going to LOVE (or at least like) this little web-based story I’m working on!!
It’s called Dear Clarent, and it’s a silly mystery investigating a shipwreck from 1914. Yes, it is very much interactive!! There are lots of password/cipher protected links, documents, audio, etc :)
Also, all of the artwork on the site is made by me (so far), so supporting the site means supporting an emerging artist!
We have a funny mascot too if you love silly little guys btw <3

Sears Home no. 115
A humble starter home based on the 1908 catalog home from Sears.
Sears Modern Home no. 115
This modest Edwardian era-Gilded Age starter home is based in plans, price, and appearance on one of the earliest Sears kit homes, the 1908 #115. Sold from 1908-1942, Sears Modern Homes were ordered through mail-order catalogs to be shipped by rail to buyers, who would assemble them by hand. Like Ikea, but for affordable housing. These houses were marketed to the growing American middle class and helped to popularize the latest technologies in home building, such as balloon frame construction, plumbing, electricity, and heating.
This lot includes:
4 bedrooms
2 baths (none in the original plans which is why they aren't labeled on my poster)
Parlor, Kitchen, and Pantry, as well as two covered porches
Unfurnished and Unfinished to fit price
20 x 15 lot size
$21,914 simoleons - or around 725$ adjusted for inflation when I built it in 2021. The dollar simoleon has depreciated more since then so it's not priced as historically accurate anymore :( Better value for your sims though!
Packs Used- packs in bold are essential:
Cottage Living, University, Cats & Dogs, Get Together, Vampires, Jungle Adventure.
This build was mostly made with base game materials, all packs used were for decoration only. No CC used.
