Lot size: 30 x 30


The elegant Oak Hill Estate dates back to the Edwardian period, and has enjoyed a long, colorful (and some say haunted) history. Does your Sim dare explore this lot....?

Qube Design is pleased to present this wonderful fully-featured estate home on a 30 x 30 lot. This home offers dramatic, historic architecture, Farrow and Ball color-matched trim, and all the luxury touches you expect in a large, huge-lot estate. Designed for a small lot (or, put it on a huge lot and landscape away), this home can finish off a period street-scape, or offer an exquisite back-drop for your next machinema project.

No detail has been overlooked - everything from a beautiful rose garden with heart-shaped swimming pool to a 4 car garage, two-level green house, guest suite and full laundry room. And that is just in the basement! The main level offers a formal living room and dining room (with adjoining terrace and dramatic two-storey arbor), a large family kitchen overlooking the garden green-house, a stunning two-storey library with piano alcove and a large sunroom. The second level offers three bedrooms and a big family bath, and the attic has been finished, but awaits your decorating ideas - a large master suite? Media room with star-gazing balcony? Or horror-filled prison chamber, where the only escape is to jump into the blood-red pool.....

On the Scottish coastline of Loc Ness, the ruins of Urquhart Castle have stood for time immemorial. Qube Design has just completed a full restoration of this mysterious castle, and now it is a comfortable family home. Rumors that the Loc Ness monster dwells in the catacombs are pure speculation, however we do advise against swimming the the lower-level pool....


This stunning family estate will make the most fastidious celebrity or vampire proud to call home, and no detail has been overlooked. The lush, overgrown garden leads you into a dramatic paneled entrance hall with beautiful marble floors and a warm inviting fireplace (one of many throughout the home). The grand staircase rises to a mid-level landing that overlooks one of two outdoor pool areas. A formal living room, sun porch and library are to the left, and a warm 'hearth' room, kitchen, dining and family rooms are to the right. The second level offers two master suites (with outdoor access), a double nursery, and a 'study tower' for the children with stairs leading up to the home theatre room on the third level. The basement is partially developed and offers 4 car garage space, a billiards room, laundry, guest rooms, and access to the lower level terraces. Private nanny's quarters are separate from the main house, and off the lower level pool area.

Please enjoy this lovely home from Qube Design.
