Life on the Water in Bellisseria

One of the most popular Linden Home themes is the Houseboat. All four houseboat models have a private dock area and access to open water channels, making them a good choice for people that enjoy sailing and being close to the water.

For this location with an amazing view of a lighthouse, I chose the smallest houseboat, the “Evening Star”.

The first thing I added to the houseboat was a purchased add on that covered the downstairs walls, created a bathroom space, and added stairs to a new upper room. Then, used the House Control module to change the original houseboat surfaces, tinted and/or retextured the add on pieces where needed, and added a simple mesh prim with a white plank wood texture to the lower level floor. The add on comes with a built in kitchen island, but I wanted to use my own so stretched and resized an Ionic island to fit over the original. A door to the newly added bathroom is back by the stairs.

Upstairs, the new room was turned into a bedroom and a little vanity/office space. Since this is a boat, there are many curved corners. I think it turned out well!

The add on came with a very nice pergola for the top deck. Since the big draw of this boat’s location is the view from the starboard side, I replaced the pergola with a small seating area for coffee, drinks and chats.

Then to finish it off, added a pool, a little greenery and a swing, plus a walkway to the pool…still within the 351 prim limits for Linden Homes!
