In the next couple of days I am about to submit this huge Victorian. I made this lot with our pattern artist (djehmli) in mind. I wanted to show how beautiful her patterns look in her favorite style of home with Victorian gardens, though I almost wish the lot was bigger to make more interesting gardens.
There is no garage, just a parking block. I felt a garage would detract from the over all beauty of the home and less room for gardens and knowing me, I love to landscape lol! I call it The Grand Lady well because, well look at it! It is as grand as an big Victorian of it's day with a wrap around porch and even has a sunroom in the back and of course a gazebo.
Before I submit this lot, I will be taking out some furnishings since the file size is well over 16mb. I need to learn not to be so excessive lol! but sometimes I get carried away in the moment and always wonder what else I can do in the lot.
The colors I chose remind me of original colors that might have been seen on an old Victorian. I almost went with white siding,(yuck) so I kept the brick and the scalloped patterns. The scalloped patterns is as close to gingerbread as I can get which is seen on Victorians. Well hope you like it Julie, it will have plenty of bedrooms to start a new legacy :)
