Ashfield Estate | The Sims 4 Speed Build

[Music] well hello there my darlings happy bloody friday to you and welcome to a speed build we haven't done one of these in a hot titty minute and look at us here we are this is ashfield estate it is a three bedroom three bathroom english country house that i got inspiration from an estate agents they were they were selling this house and it was gorgeous absolutely loved it and i lost the bloody reference image so i can't show you what it looked like so i would have flopped it up on the screen um and i lost the reference image quite um soon into building this as well so i just decided right i've got enough enough inspiration i'm going to completely just wing it and see what i can come up with myself so that is exactly what i did now we are using lots of custom content today because custom content is amazing and i'm very much for it using the creators uh felixander and harry and pierre sim plum bob t society and also peacemaker as well so all five of them i am using all of their custom content in the game i will try and link it down below today but if not i will do it over the weekend and get you guys the custom content that you would need but it is the majority of everything from those particular creators that is my favorites and i i like to use them i do so you can see we've kind of skipped on ahead a little bit now we've put the wallpapers on that wallpaper is from felixander by the way if you do want to go into owl i just hit my bloody elbow oh it's not funny when you do that i don't know why they call it your funny bone because it's not funny it's very very hurts but um yeah that wallpaper is on the house of harlock's website if you want to go and get it it is completely free um some of the objects that i do use in this game are but um on patreon and they're not out to public just yet i don't think a few particular things including the new brownstone kitchen from harry um and i think several pieces from pierre sim for his oak house collection i'm unsure if they're out on public release yet but they will be in the future so if you don't want to go and pay then you can just wait for them to be free there's an option there for you yes it is now now i'm littering the front of the build up with this beautiful wisteria this wisteria is from plum bob t society it is part of a i think it's called the country garden collection it's a beautiful pack full of absolutely gorgeous pieces um and i love them i love this wisteria it just fits into this build so perfectly so that's exactly what i decided to do now to this site i'm going to be building a little garage a garage if you will and i was like oh do we want to make it taller should we make the two walls taller i end up going up to the top doing that cheat where i can you can build at different heights people think that you can do this naturally you can't you've got to do it this way if you want a medium height wall on the same level as a short wall um so that's what i'm doing here to just get a garage in and then in the end i end up going for a short wall anyway so that whole thing was a waste of bloody time but uh i just yeah i just wanted a little separate garage in here now i love the interior in here we went for a little bit more of a modern traditional vibe but a lot more of a darker aesthetic on the inside i wanted a moody feel on the inside still some brighter pieces here and there the brighter rooms here and there especially with the bedrooms i've injected a bit of color into the bedrooms but i yeah wanted to keep that darker moodier exterior i mean interior um the voiceover will be failing today yes it will as always but we're just gonna have to go with it now this um wall that i'm using is from debug i'm unsure what pack this came from actually i think it's base game i don't see a logo on it anywhere so yeah it must be a base game wall i just thought it fit fit perfectly in this build so i absolutely go to town on it and i put it absolutely everywhere and you'll probably see me pausing every now and again i don't know if i do pause but i was very much into a podcast at this point i was watched listening to the mile hut mile higher podcast with kendo kendo kendall and josh and my favorite podcast they go over conspiracies and all sorts they're just bloody lovely people i just want to be friends with them but good if for goodness sake josh and kendall i want to be friends with you let's make this happen please thank you very much and if you are unsure what this podcast is it's what i just said it's like a conspiracy aliens ghosts paranormal podcasts it's my absolute favorite i would definitely recommend anybody who's into that to go over and give it a watch because it's amazing yes it is so what i'm doing here is putting some gravel all the way up to the garage area and i'm using the new um flooring from um it's from that kitchen pack the country kitchen pack i just thought it looked really nice on the outside so yeah that's why that's what i'm doing darlings and i end up framing the path in with this stone that came with jungle adventure i think it came with i use this a lot to line paths i just really like the small pieces i just wish we had pieces like this in the build catalog i don't understand why little things like this get overlooked in the sims like they should just take a big look at what their community are doing and how they're building and stuff i think and bring out objects like that i don't know i'm moaning about the sims again but you know what i'm allowed i'm allowed how are you all doing i hope you're all right i hope you're all gonna have a lovely weekend i'm looking forward to this weekend tom's coming home we're just gonna chill out chill out big time maybe go on a nice big walk now that blues leg is definitely better it's definitely definitely better he is and he can it's so funny because you can kind of sense it in himself as well or you can see it in himself sorry not sense he's just oh my legs not hurt anymore you can see him like kicking his back legs out and he's having a lovely time bless him so thank you to all of you gorgeous buggers my darling friends all around the world who sent him some good wishes and good vibes because it bloody it worked my loves i always think that i always think there is something in a group of people if they've all got the same wish and they've all got the same energy then you can make good things happen and you guys you guys healed him you really did so yeah thank you for that now this little area at the back here it was quite tight i didn't want to put this on a big a lot i did have a thought process of maybe we should do this on a 64 by 64 then i was like no because it will take 90 years and i just don't have the time to do a 64 by 64 yet i do want to do one soon i don't want to do like a village but i'm thinking about saving that for the let's build um when we go off to brindleton bay but yeah so i kept honor i kept it on earth i think this is a 40 by 30 is that i build on this lot so much is the summer home lot in windenburg i just love this lot the lighting is great here especially in the evening which is the lighting what i'm using now um it's gorgeous uh but yes i'm putting more ivy around at the minute but a lot of it was creeping in the interior so i do did have to change that quite a bit but it still looks nice and i wish we would have more ivy in the game more ivy like this like a regular shaped looking ivy that we could like place in places i'd be very much for it love those like arched windows on that little where what that is is the bay window in the living area love those arch windows or they are from felixander as well they are also on the house of harlock's website where you can go and download them for free uh and they just really look nice from the interior as well because we put a nice leafy wallpaper from the tiny travelers pack from harry and felix and it just fits in with the vibe really does really love the interior inside here i use a lot of wood paneling or only wood paneling i think throughout the whole house but we do we inject some colors in and i just love it i really really like how the interior came out um but we'll talk about that a bit further on yes we will so here i was like right we're gonna need to put a barrier of some kind in because the sims will just walk through that wall so what i end up doing is putting loads of trees there and short iron fence just to act as a bit of a barrier against um the actual wall itself so your sims don't come and float through darlings they really don't thank you as well so much for all of your lovely comments on my last videos i've still gotta catch up with a few from the previous two videos so don't think i'm ignoring those comments i have read them i just haven't interacted with them yet so leave it to me over the weekend i'll have all comments um caught up with um but yes it's the thing i love to do i love to listen i love to read your comments and i love to interact with you guys it's so important to me that is the biggest importance to me for this community is making sure that you guys know that you are not just a number to me you're not i'm not going to sing nearly dead then nearly nearly dead caught myself just in time before i serenaded you with a numbers song oh christ what am i like i did think about putting a statue there but i've just i didn't i was like yeah so i end up putting some rocks from snowy escape there with the moss on top and and i just prefer it prefer how that looks and again obviously again some terrain painting and around the tree areas um and going down the lawn lines as well just to give it a bit more realism and i end up putting a bush on this side as well which i just thought looked stunning next to that tree it really did and then i go around the whole lot and do some more uh terrain painting as well but but yes i do love how this house came out i would live in this house in a heartbeat i tell you i bloody much words uh annoyingly when i was doing gameplay that stupid bloody hoover pack made everything dusty and it was glitching out and it was dust bunnies that i couldn't get rid of it was just so annoying so yeah has anybody else been having problems with that pack i know quite a lot of people have and it's quite buggy so yes very fuming more restore more wistoria more wisteria onto the back i wanted to absolutely litter this build in this gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous piece of custom content um my lord it was one of my favorite ever cc packs was the the cottage pack from plum bob t society it was so well done and there are so many objects and it's not only um like build stuff it's create a sim it's it's all sorts so if you haven't got it i would implore you to go and download it and i'll make sure to link that down below once i have put all of the cc down below over this weekend at some point maybe monday if it creeps into monday you'll have to excuse me but it's so hard to i need to get like a document where all of the custom content i use all of the time is just there and then anything new needs to be added to it i think i'll do that in the future just so you can have a full list of the cc that i always use um in your game or if you do or at least a um document with it all on you know so yes so this little area here is a little like patio area i didn't want it to be too this house is very minimal so i wanted that to reflect in the garden as well i didn't want too much stuff out here i didn't want a barbecue or anything i just wanted a lovely place but they could come and sit by the fire pit in relative comfort and that is what i've came up with i really like how it looks and i just think the vibes it suits the house really and i was very much for it very much for it indeed what are you all what are you getting up to this weekend darlings i watched the new well the square enix um showcase last night where they actually showed off the next life is strange game oh my god i cut up bloody white to play it like the life both of the life of strange games were one of my favorites i absolutely loved them so i cannot wait to play that on stream with you guys it's gonna be an absolute ball um but yes i'm good i'm good i'm i've got a few games i want to play i actually want to do a bit of gaming this weekend i really do i always miss out on doing gaming because i'm gaming for a bloody like day job you know so i don't have time now anymore and gaming is was one of my favorite hobbies it was so this weekend i'm definitely going to be getting on my pc and doing a bit of gaming unsure at what game just yet but but yes um i think we're going to go into the interiors now i'm just putting a bit more of these toppery bushes in so here we are that gorgeous fireplace is from pierre sim um it is from the oak house collection is stunning and that is a tv i'm putting up on the wall i know it looks like a piece of art but it's not it's from harry and felix for the living room pack uh it just fits in with this this is the living room by the way i don't know i don't know if you knew but this is the living room those gorgeous sofas are from pierre's him as well as as well as the coffee table i just wanted a pop of white in here wanted this room to be a little bit more brighter than the rest of the house considering it's got these big bay windows with this bright wallpaper on i wanted this room to have a little bit more brightness to it so this is probably the brightest room in the house apart from the teenage bedroom which i did make mustard yellow with mustard yellow wood paneling i know it must sound awful but trust me i was very happy with it when it came to it i won't lie to you but that's coming up a bit later on anyway you'll see it but look at this that wood paneling by the way is from peacemaker i cannot remember what it's called um or the title of it so i'll make sure to link that down below as well uh when i do the cc links but just look at this living room i'm for it i'd just imagine the calming atmosphere in here reading a book having a glass of gin i'd be very much for it i really would really really would and mixing everybody's furniture together as well it was really nice to mix all my favorite cc creators um pieces together and they just fit in so well especially going along the lines of felix harry and pierre-sim because the max's match is just perfection from all of them so it just fit in with this vibe lovely now this babe window here i was like i want lots of greenery in this corner mainly to blend in with the outdoors but also to blend in with the wallpaper because the wallpaper has got all of those gorgeous gorgeous patterns all over it and i just thought it fit in fit in very well but as i said i do go along the lines of minimalism in this house minimalism is my i just absolutely love it and i love trying to get that across in the sims without it looking too empty or not realistic i think there's a fine line between those two especially when you're trying to build in the sims it's a bit difficult but i did it i think i did it so this little bit here is like a it's a parlor i would say like a pile of slash library where you can see it's got a bit more of a darker moody aesthetic in here because i use lots of black furniture and lots of dark woods and stuff so my in my head the sim that lives here he is an architect and this would be maybe somewhere he could bring his prospective clients and sit down and just have a nice chat and go over some um models of builds or something i don't know i'm not an architect i don't know what they do but i thought this room just had a nice feeling to it it's a nice moody atmosphere in here um which i love and yes again using lots of harry and felix's living room stuff including including those bellini um sofa chairs gorgeous things i love them but yes very nice very nice parlor you could even make this into a kids like a play room if you wanted if you wanted to renovate this you could make it into a playroom but i don't know i just wanted it to have this nice atmosphere in here i did put up two wall lights which gave it a little bit more lighting but i still think it's still got that moody edge to it which yeah i really like those wall mounted cabinets there they're from pierre sim as well for the oak house collection they just glide right up to the wall and they're floating from beneath i just thought they really suit the atmosphere in here um really like it i do and this is obviously loads of fireplaces in here i think there's about six fireplaces in total in this house um one in each bedroom one in the office one in this room and one in the um living room but yes so kitchen kitchen is probably the most minimal room of the house using harry's new gorgeous amazing brownstone kitchen probably no not probably definitely my favorite kitchen that harry's done so far without a doubt um i'm in love with it i think it's beautiful it's my aesthetic completely i would it's quite similar to my kitchen in a way um without the lip around the top i've got like almost a cascadin edge to my work tops and they're in like a slatey sort of tone um but the cupboards and everything look very similar to mine in real life but mine's mine's not black mine's like a sort of light really light smokey grey which i love i love it and look at that beautiful island i didn't want to go and use the full island piece they've got that harry's got that like prism sort of geometric island piece i wanted to just have a little bit of it and then have an extra little bit on the end where they can come and sit and eat their breakfast or something in the kitchen area and i just love this kitchen i do i think it's just it's my vibe something for it imagine how clean you could keep it and oh i'm for it so yeah i didn't put any kind of decoration up on the sides apart from a plant that you'll see in the video tour at the end and that was it really but yes dining room dining room i wanted the dining room to still blend in with the kitchen so i used darker furniture but using light wooden or white wooden panels just to bring a bit of brightness to the room so if they do have guests over it's just a little bit bright a bit more sunny they could open up those double patio windows out into the garden area um pat your door sorry so i just wanted this room to just reflect on the kitchen with the color tones but still have a bit more of a brighter feel to it and i think i think i pulled it off so i won't lie to you so very much happy with it yes i am this is the office so this was um as we said i think the the husband is the architect so he needed a very nice office just come and get all of his sketches and design pieces done again i wanted a bit more of a moody vibe in here so lots black paneling on the wall in here for a start um just a very nice moody atmosphere in here and i love it and this goes right onto the end of the house as well so this is like the little like pokey outy bit that's a very technical term in architecture the pokey um so yeah i knew i wanted to put an office in here so that's what i went and did and i just love it just love all these vibes i think the house blends through really nicely as well with everything that is used even going up into the bedrooms where we do inject a bit more color especially into the teen bedroom and the child's bedroom we definitely add some color into those rooms but i still think it kind of is cohesive it fits in very well and i was very happy very very happy with this build always so much easier for me to build with custom content because all of these pieces reflect my own style so it's so much easier building for myself rather than thinking of somebody else which i just enjoyed doing so everything came together really really easily i do always like pre-build my rooms first to make sure i'm happy with it and then i delete the lot and then go back like i'm doing now and put everything back in where it was um just because i just find that a lot easier now uh yes i do yes i do so this is the master bedroom anyway while i was waffling look at those gorgeous wardrobes they are from pierre sim for the elk house collection just think they're stunning do think they're stunning and again really bringing in that moody darker vibe into the bedroom as well and by use of lots of darker furnitures and just selective lighting here and there which i really enjoy i do don't know if this could be me this bedroom it's my tastes definitely but personally i do prefer a bit more of a brighter bedroom i would if this was my room i would go a bit more lighter gray with the paneling rather than having them black but i just wanted that vibe to come through in this house so that's what i did yes i did and yeah i think it's nice that little chair in the corner is from peacemaker by the way i think it's the gwendolyn chair i just wanted a bit more of a classic armchair up in the bedroom area so we're into the mustard room look at the color look at the color of those bloody wall panels i'm for it i match it in with the curtains as well and i did want to get a bit of a pattern on the bedding so i go for that gray uh what is that is that um oh i forgot the name of those flowers magnolia i think it's magnolia tree um just wanted a bit of a pattern a bit of a pattern in there still reflecting on the colors though because they do have like little injections of um that mustard tone from the walls um and in here i was like oh should i do like orange wardrobes and i was like no aidan that's a bit much we'll stick we'll stick with black we'll stick with black to match them with the door so it's still darker in here which i like but i think the brightness of the wall panels and stuff just really lifted this room up and yeah i'm very much for it i think it's perfect room for a teen not just a teen this could be adults as well but just a bit more of a grown-up room i think and i just love the vibe of it in here i do i love it absolutely love how this room came out we ended up doing a little tv in here as well with the um the samsung frame esque tv uh that looks like a piece of art i put that on the wall and i just size it down a few times as well just so just so it fits in with the wall paneling and it doesn't like swamp this room too much very much for it very much for it and jade when we get to the bathroom as well i'm in love with the bathroom bathroom is probably one of my favorite bathrooms that i've done in quite a while um you'll see that a bit further on but yeah it looks lovely looks lovely now into the kid's bedroom not very realistic well you know it is fireplaces in kids bedroom it does happen but you wouldn't necessarily put a fire on in a kid's bedroom to be honest with you but i i did i thought you know what bugger it if she catches on fire it's only a her own fault check it i'm joking but um i just think it looks nice now we end up going for a bit more of a softer palette in here as well using white furniture also change the color of the fireplace for a bit more of a smokier grey just so it fits in a bit lighter in here but lots of pink in here pink paneling lots of little cutesy bits but still looking very classy i really wanted the classy vibe to come through in the beginning i was like oh should we use this dollhouse and i was like no because we need to get a wardrobe in here and that was me noticing there was no more room for it so we ended up getting rid of that and just popping this in pop in this beautiful one from the tiny traveler pack and i changed the color of the bed frame as well i was just looking a bit everything was a bit too pink pink so i end up going for a white um bed frame as well it just it helped and it looked a little bit better to me but yes this is me just hunting around for a few pieces i end up getting rid of that mirror above the fireplace let me go for that little world map instead i just think i just wanted a bit more of a cutesy vibe to put in here to be honest with you i really did and then up here i put a little shelf little shelf with a hat on i thought it was gorgeous um and then a little picture frame on top of it as well very nice indeed i really like how this room came out it was very cute very very cute and then i'm getting a little rug in there too just to just to soften up the room a little bit so into the bathroom so this is a dream bathroom of mine color everything the palette the minimalist the minimalism everything just works for me in here and yeah i just i really love it it's just the lighting that comes through in this bathroom as well you'll see that in the video tour at the end it just it looked beautiful beautiful very much for it i would definitely have this bathroom in a heartbeat i really would anyway my darlings i hope you have the most amazing weekends whatever you do i'll be back on monday with let's build the worlds oh sorry let's build the world [Music] um and then yes that's it i'm not going to tell you my schedule next week because it could change but i hope you have a lovely bloody weekend whatever you get up to my darlings you're gonna go
