Building a TARTOSA STARTER HOME | The Sims 4

starter homes we've done a few on the channel now and every single one what I'm trying to do is just go in a different world build it to that kind of architectural style and only use the packs that came with that specific world today we are in tartosa which is the world that came with my wedding stories and we're gonna do a kind of Grecian or Greek inspired starter home using around 20 000 Simoleons and this is the lot I've decided to pick this is a 20 by 20 lot in the kind of coastal area of tartosa uh I think this is the perfect size for a little cheeky star to home it's got its own little little mini Island moment which I'm absolutely for there's only little bridge and stuff I have already pulled out a few little pieces here that I just think aesthetically fit into the style of this world I did find a reference image on Pinterest that I really liked but I've decided to kind of go on my own little whim and I did little practice build earlier just to kind of sort of see a shape and so if you see me looking over to the right here it's because it's literally copying it down Darlings yes I am a date but anyway let's go Hi how are you all doing it is um well it's not it's Monday for me but it's going to be Tuesday for you I am pre-recording quite a few videos this week uh just because I've got little Daisy to look after um she is doing very well she is a big bundle of energy let me just say that um so it's been a bit of a shock to the system to get used to having a puppy in the house again but I'm absolutely loving it I really really am she is an absolute sweetheart she's in the puppy nipping biting stage at the minute so I'm just going through with the training with all of that and it should be absolutely fine but yeah I'm at I'm absolutely adoring having a little puppy um in the house again I really really am very very happy but yeah that's the little update for you darling's little update for you so this is the kind of like basic shape that I got I think what I wanted to do was I think what we did is I Rose this one up two levels here like that and then what we did is popped in a little Archway did I not bring the archway out I didn't now we are kind of limited on doors and things because we're only using base game and my wedding stories but this will all make sense I hope as we continue onwards yes it will so I'm going to do a little half wall moment up on this level here that should be okay we're gonna go around there so this is almost like a little open courtyard moment I am going to Bish bash boost that out that's like a little open courtyard moment I did some stairs in here like this but I just saved some money I get rid of the underneath and that gives you like 600 simoleons back um it's all about those little cheats loves isn't it when you're um building for starter homes and limited budget builds and that's what we're doing today yes we are indeed right I'm gonna bring this one right up to there and then I am going to do another one just below it I think and bring you to there too yeah that's cute so just add a bit of Interest so what I'm thinking is the stone that I want to use first off is the unbent smoothness so a lot of Greek homes are white to reflect the sun to keep the house cool um and it just looks bloody glorious I remember going to Santorini um and seeing all of those white sugar cubed houses on top of the cliffs and it was just one of the most beautiful places I've ever been in my life it really was um Greece is my favorite place to Holiday in the entire world I absolutely love it um yes very much forward and as you may or may not know my boyfriend is Greek so you know what more can be said about that to be honest oh that's gorgeous and I think I'm gonna do a little fence on that point there right above here we do need a little canopy moment I'm thinking I'm just gonna add in um something like this all the way across gorgeous I'm gonna do a little trim on that as well so let's trim that one up this is probably going to be expensive isn't it how much are you how much are you 44 simoleons that's fine and then for the roof texture we're just going to go for this one here and the lightest that we can get that should be fine and then I do want to color these trims or maybe we could go for blue on the trims it's not blue though is it I wish they would um update the trim colors I really do I think they're shy to be honest with you that's not going to give me the blue that I want now we're best just sticking off with white then instead I think that's kind of cute we do need a wood lover Bannister but I'm just worried that this might be a little bit too expensive as well 350 simoleons we're gonna do it we're gonna do it because I just think it will add something yeah lovely stunning Cover Girl Right Moving On so the main entrance how dare you the main entrance is going to be down on this side here let me get the Grid on I'm going to pop you to around about there I think and then we're going to do the window with the kind of like um security railing on the bottom I might even move you into like there actually or there it's a bit more balanced that's nice and then I'm going to do another one up here and I do want a doll coming out here but I would love a double door I'm wondering if I could get a nice just maybe glass double door so it's a little bit more modern I'm going to swap the doors around I'm going to use the slidey big door down at the bottom here and use the smaller one on top I just think that looks a little bit better very much for that very much for that now one thing we don't have to worry about too much with this house is the price of the windows the windows are like 30 simoleons I think so I'm going to add in quite a few of these windows so I'm going to do another one around here um I probably want to do another one on the side here as well and I think we need to do a couple more down here too so I'm going to do one more there let's get you to the right height there and another one there as well not gonna use them around on the other side because we don't need them oh just forgot we need to use uh these ones down on this point because they've got the security bar on now I don't know what I'm doing around the back just yet I think the back's gonna look quite flat at the minute um so we'll get to that a little bit later once we've figured out what we're doing around here anyway so I do want some of these now we're not very spoiled for Choice with flowers and stuff with base game and my wedding stories um not at all so we won't be able to do like the Borgen via you know that gorgeous like Borg in the earth that climbs up a lot of Grecian house that I see um but I will kind of like pay respect to it by putting a little bit of pink in like that now I was thinking maybe we could use these instead of using uh columns maybe I could use these here yeah I think I'm gonna do that so you can go there and then you go there yeah but I'm gonna need to lift this one up uh boop boop one and two like that and that was free as well that's all from debug yeah that's cute I like that we're gonna use this as a fence and I also want to try and get a fireplace in here but I'm a bit worried about money so I'm gonna keep a chimney out anyway and we're gonna continue onwards now I want to use this rustic Sandstone for this bilge I think it's just the perfect looking um flooring and I'm gonna use this all on the out um all on the outside and I don't think I'm going to use it on the interior I think we're going to go for a bit more rhetorical or tile on the interior but everywhere else that's outside I'm gonna use it because I just think it will match in beautifully slow area oh it's looking very nice we are definitely going to go to town as well on some debug items to make this look a lot more attractive on the outside but yes anyway I thought this here would be great for a little wall so there we go I'll put that fence all that like walls just around the actual front part of the house and I've also made a little access point here so they've got an easy kind of access hop onto the stairs to go up into the bedroom areas now you can probably see I've pulled out some of this Wisteria as well which is from my wedding stories even though it came with uh the cottage living expansion and but that's in debugs that was all free and then I pulled out this pergola over on this side and that got me thinking oh we could have a nice little like dining area around underneath of the pergola so that's what we're gonna do I think I'm gonna use this flooring all the way around to there but I'm just going to take a bit away from the front here because I think I'm gonna like hedge it up a little bit almost so I'm going to hedge it up to a roundabout there just to give a little bit more privacy just on that little area I think that would work quite nicely so I'm gonna find a base game hedge that I just think would fit into this world semi-okay I think it needs to be a little bit lighter than that to be honest so I'm going to use this base game one here it's just a little bit lighter it's a little bit lighter and I think it would just suit the world a little bit more than a darker green one and it does I was correct I was correct pat on the back and tap on the top of the major links right I'm gonna flop you to there and bring you right into about there I think just a little look at you are you a bit far far out yeah there we go yeah that's a bit better you see what I mean it just almost snugs that area in quite nicely yeah I'm into that so what I want to do is I want to paint the platforms here but I would love I don't think we've got any kind of like tile that would work well unless we do like a terracotta moment or I could bring a bit of blue in that way oh that looks nice oh yes let's do that yeah that's cute that is very cute so we've got 10 000 simoleons left and I have not bought one ounce of furniture for this house so what I need to do is just pull out everything that I know they will need before we move on to do anything else because we might not have enough loves okay so what I've done is I've put on some more windows I've got some more windows Here There and Everywhere I do need to change these out for just the normal ones and just to make this flat back look a little bit more um interesting shall we say I'm gonna get rid of those tiles save us 48 simoleons there just stop it from looking so flat at the minute while this house is still in the store at home kind of like phase I've used this plant here that came with uh my wedding stories and it just it just fills that in because as always with these starter homes I will be developing on it and we will make it a bit more of like a three to four bedroom family home next time and definitely want to do that so I'm making sure to leave spaces around the sides and stuff where I know I can extend outwards and make this house a little bit bigger now into the Interiors I have chosen these tiles here on the floor and also some of these tiles up on this end here which is where the kitchen is going to be and I do want access out onto this point which I have for the same tiles in this little Courtyard area as well just to bring a little bit more color out there and I kind of like that um so this is what I've had in mind so what I'm going to do is we're not having a toilet downstairs so I'm gonna bring this up twice here get rid of this uh wall I went blank then how did I not remember what a wall was called I tell you why silly bum right and then oh no I'm not gonna eye drop anything because it will disrupt my filters I'm gonna use this uh cheeky it's a Stairway and I'm gonna Bish bash boost the underneath of the out to save some money that was 136 simoleons um how much that is 10 more simoleons to make it a little bit bigger oh you know what I'm kind of into that I'm kind of into that it's making me want to almost carry this on up there as well just so that kind of like yeah that texture carries on up all the way over to that point there now this is where I'm gonna use I just eye dropped something doing it it's just so natural um for me to eye drop things that the filters just go well they just go the end you know and I'm thinking about putting this one in this point here now so they've got like a little bit more of a modern aesthetic coming out from do I want to just do it directly underneath that window I think I do actually yes yeah let's do that yeah that's cute I like that and we'll fill that up with some flowers and plants and stuff uh this would be nice to have like a little patio tables and chairs but in start a home phase we're just going to stick with a dining table out on this area here so that's what we're gonna do yes we are on date now we've got 8 250 simoleons left I have already picked out a bed I've picked out a bed and I've also picked out a unit here as well um we'll make this place look a little bit more attractive when we get to it and I've also made a start on the bathroom itself and I'm thinking about using those tiles in the bathroom too but again we'll make a start on that once we get to it I do want to concentrate on now on the kitchen now this is probably where we're going to struggle because we only have base game kitchens and base game kitchens are too expensive and very boring to look at they really are they aggravate me just being there um I don't really want to go down the route of having this in here it's such uh it's just not the vibe even the blue like it's just not for me I think we need to go more classic with it we're going to use limited counters here so I'm going to keep this quite a small kitchen to be honest with you it does mean that I might I'm gonna have to move these windows up slightly I think we should do a corner piece I think we should do the fridge there I think we should do the oven here we're gonna go for the cheapest oven we can I'm gonna go for a white one as well there we go I think we need to do one more counter like that okay we've still got six thousand simoleons that's not too bad a cheeky little fridge over onto this side and again using the cheapest one we possibly can I'm gonna bring it into fruition around there to our looks yeah and I will get to maybe doing a little bit of detailing with some debug in this kitchen just so it doesn't look too boring but it will look boring it's the start at home they always intend to look boring uh GPS think I'm gonna use you but can we have a bit more of a god tap please there we go that's better I will flop you to there I'm Gonna Leave This space here I was gonna put a fireplace in here but I just we haven't got the money no the choices of fireplaces either because the fireplaces are all a bit vile and base game wise so I'm going to make this into a bit of a living area with maybe a nice bookshelf so I need to find some nice sofas so here we go one living room I'm gonna flop I'm gonna use this bookcase it's a bit contemporary but I think it kind of matches in quite nicely with this whole a house kind of feeling it in here don't tend to use that very much either because I just used it to death back in the day so maybe that needs a little Resurgence of some kind um I'm gonna use this big sofa here but I'm also going to use this little um chair I'm gonna flop you over into this position here now remember I am going for kind of like EA limitations once again um and also bloody um budget limitations so we've got two Whoppers coming on to us well that sounds very nice um and also I'm going to put in this little plant here onto that area there I just think that it's a nice little a little a little Nook to be honest and I also just to decorate this wall over here I put in this little side table little Hall table with a mirror above it and then I used this little coated pack flopped it up there loves it up maybe a little bit higher there we go yes you know I think that's kind of nice actually kind of nice it's very bare but I think it goes with the style of the house quite well um I mean you could even have a small little dining table here which I might do if we've got enough money I'll do a small little dining table there with some chairs but I need to concentrate on the other areas that I want to fill up first before I make any choices like that the same with like shelves and like decoration and stuff we're just going to leave it as it is for the moment but so far I'm kind of enjoying how it's looking yes I am indeed so we do need a dining table and chairs for that outside so that's what I'm going to go ahead find now and this is what I've done I've used the table from my wedding stories but the base game chairs the chairs were just a little bit too expensive to kind of match in with the table uh I've put this little Ivy piece back here with a little plant pot I've also bought out a barbecue this was 650 simoleons but I would really love some kind of outside like entertaining space so that kind of made sense to spend a bit of money on that and I hung up these little flower baskets here that hang from the pergola oh I think that looks marvelous now what I would say that would be needed out here oh watch you oh my God that's in debug oh we should use that we should use that I mean it would be rude if we didn't use a bit of Bougainvillea I did not even know that was the thing that just popped out and said hello then and so I'm very much for that this is what we're using yes we are into we're going to do this together this is me getting excited and distracted at the same time and we're just going to continue on with it we really really bloody our darling so I'm gonna flop you to there bring you down a little bit more my love yep that's stunning oh this is just the ticket this is the absolute biscuit lovable computer really do yeah I like that but I'm almost wanting to use a little bit up in the courtyard as well so let's see if we can squeeze them in I might be able to if I size them down yeah but I also needed a little bit over on this side as well I think so I'm gonna come around to this point and flop you up to here yeah yeah that's cute just a little bit more pink around there I might even do a little bit more on this corner or something but for the minute oh stunning very much for it now there's not much going on back here but I do want to make it look a little bit more semi-attractive so I think first off what I want to do is just do a little bit of terrain um painting around here I think I'm gonna go for something like this yeah just connecting this area at the back of the house here and I'll bring that around onto this side just a little bit this is quite rougher the minute I will go through and fine tune it all I just want this to kind of like blend in with the world a little bit better there we go oh my toe clacking did you hear her she's back she's back she's back for summer season she's absolutely back for the summer season right and I'm gonna do some soil underneath of this hedge yeah that seems to be fine same around here to there and then I'm gonna go back to that stone and just those edges like that oh let me see yes but as I said I do want to go through and fine tune it a little bit more so I'm happy with this we've still got 3600 simoleons left we haven't done the bathroom or anything yet but I reckon we're going to have quite a bit left over for some extra decoration now saying extra decoration I want to finish off this like facade the front of it with some more Landscaping some details on the actual house itself just to bring it to life a little bit more so I'm gonna go ahead and do that and then we'll get under the interiors and do that together and there we go just a few more final details I'll go around and point everything out that I've done you can obviously see I've put some more trees onto the law and I've perfected the terrain painting a little bit more just to make it look a little bit more you know fits into the landscape a little bit better shall we say um I've put some planters out on here we've also put a little plant in a planter there what else did we do I put some more tree empty more foliage on the back of the build itself uh including some more of that Bougainvillea up on that point there uh what else did I do I've pulled out a little Sun lounger here we've got some lighting on each of the door points so including the one on the uh Courtyard in there I've put up a little table and chairs moment just out from the bedroom itself so they've got like a little cheeky view to look out you know I'd be very much up for that uh I just think that kind of works quite nicely um and that's it I think that's all I did really just bringing out those little final details and we've still got 3135 simoleons left so we're not doing too badly my loves so we're going to get in and we're going to put in some final details around everywhere else I think what we should do is just finish off the bathroom while we're here just so we know we've got everything that they will need this is what we're gonna do we're gonna put the shower over on this point here because I really like those two windows I just like the way that they kind of like look through each other I am going to change them out for the correct ones though because I did say I was gonna do that and I didn't do that did I did I no no I did not right so I'm gonna flop you to there and the same with you as well my love you're gonna be this one that correct position it is lovely stunning so they got a shower then they just need a toilet and sink over on this point here we're not gonna go mad we're gonna go for the GP ish ones we could go a little bit better so we'll put the 460 Simoleon one in there and also with the sink I think we'll go for this one here yeah that kind of matches in with that toilet quite nicely as well so I'm gonna pop you to there too um including a mirror we'll go for a bit more we've gone for a lighter wood in here so we'll go for a lighter wood tone with the mirror itself can I use this one instead of a bit cheaper isn't it um this one yeah let's rise your oh just what just the one there we go there I mean I can even use a bloody toilet roll in here love that's what I'm gonna do I'll go for this one and I'll flop you over onto the side here like that a bit High not too bad there we go stunning um I'm not gonna put a towel or anything up I don't think that's a necessity at the minute I think we can decorate the place a little bit better uh rather than just putting a towel there so we've got the bedroom as I said we have got the bedroom so I'm thinking we could do two dresses we could do a little dress over on this side and then I could use that other taller boy in that same color and put you over on this side how much are you 470 simoleons that's not too bad so I could like flop them either side there we've got 1 800 simoleons left I would love some kind of mirror um I don't know if I want to use one of the standing ones though especially not that one that's very expensive oh maybe you actually I think I'll use this one I think I used this one here how much was that again 100 no 455 we're not spending that much money um I want to oh we've still got details to put in other places so I'm just going to use that mirror there yeah that's cute two bedside tables I think we'll go for the most basic ones we'll go for this one here uh that color is fine I'm gonna flop you into that side one there and another one on this side like so because this is the bedroom I'm thinking about putting a rug in here as well um but I do want to get some bedside lamps and there we go two bedside lamps use the ones from my wedding stories a base Game Rug I also put a chair in this room as well just by the window here little plant top there and another plant over on that side it's nice I but as I said whenever I use base game stuff it just feels like I've used and used it and seen it time and time and time and time again um but we've got 900 simoleons left so I'm thinking about making the downstairs just a little bit more attractive and I think we should start off by putting in a light over into this area do we go for the white ones we did and I sized you down just the once yes I'm gonna put a light in this area here um I don't know what I'm going to utilize that space for I don't think it needs to be utilized at the minute you guys can make a decision on what to put there I'm Gonna Leave it completely blank for the minute yes I am a dad so what we do need is obviously one of these bad boys so let's not put it right near the oven and we also need an outside bin don't we and the outside bins are quite expensive from memra 220 simoleons I'm going to hide it around where can we hide it we could probably put it at the back of the house to be honest with you I'm gonna put it here put it here and flop it in that position like there gorgeous so we've got 510 simoleons so what could we do maybe a nice little bit of like a detail up here a little wall hanging or something so decorations let's have a little look what we could put up here um or maybe some plates that would look cute 390 simoleons yes should we go for the court now I kind of prefer the Bluer one yeah we'll go for this one pew around about there just for a little bit of detail we've got 120 simoleons left um I think what I might do is just flop up the cheapest shelf we can muster or just do one of those and then I might be able to put on something that'll just make it look like it's a kitchen you know like this there we go it's a kitchen oh that was the perfect amount of money we've got zero simoleons left I'm gonna move that down and then move it across there right there we're done Potter's a starter I'm kind of happy with how this has turned out to be honest with you I think it's gonna be a good house to develop on because we've got a space on the back here and we've got base space on the side here so maybe next week what is what I'll do is come back and develop this into like a three bedroom family home with a pool and a nice like big outside entertainment space but we'll still keep it on the same lot we'll go for the 20 by 20 lot I might just Shuffle It Forward or something so we've got a bit more room and we'll extend out this house but anyways a little tall shall we so this is the house this is the house very cute very nice um little entrance a little Sun lounger area there stairs going up that way stairs going up into this little Courtyard moment up to there as well you've got spaces to grow your plants here I mean what is a house by me without any Planters you know and we've got a nice big outdoor dining spaces in a perfect area I think because it kind of looks over the whole day famous for that and a blank back area here but we'll add that the more that we go on so let's go in the actual front door first so you come in through this way straight into the kind of open plan living and kitchen area um it's a bit bare it could do a bit of work but it is the start at home and I still think it's kind of semi-interesting to be honest with you especially how it swings over onto this side here into um the Courtyard area little enclosed Courtyard but it's not that big but you could put like a little I don't know a little bench or something there or again as I said a patio table and chairs and kind of vibing with that you come up through this way you have to go around this way to go up these stairs and then it's got its own little balcony moment here as well lovely jobly and then in through into the only bedroom in the house um very nice indeed then the only bedroom is where the toilet is sadly so if you've got guests over they'll have to go for your bedroom to get to your toilet but it's the starter home you know and you've got to start as you mean to go on um and we will start again next week with this and um turn it into something magical let's do that oh let's leave on this light oh yes lovely job play anyway my loves thank you so much for watching this I really appreciate you I will be back tomorrow with some let's build the worlds we have some more let's build the world's coming this week as well and I also am going to be renovating the land grab Mansion this week on the channel using only base game and maybe the desert Lux pack as well I might have to utilize that pack in that build just because base game and a mansion is going to be a bit dull I need a little kit pack just to give me a boost but that's what I'm gonna do um so yeah anyway leave me some lovely comments down below my loves and I'll see you all tomorrow goodbye
