Maitimo Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I've just been to see them and I actually like them better than I did from just the pics. The types are: Aldridge - 1024 - 2 storey Bradbury - 1024 - 1 storey Coniston - 1024 - 1 storey Denver - 512 - 1 storey Ender - 512 - 2 storey Faraday - 512 - 1 storey Gatewood - 512 - 2 storey Heaton - 1024 - 2 storey The 1024 size ones are HUGE - at least as big as the Fantasy houses if not bigger. The 512 ones are big for the parcels too; bigger than Trads, maybe the same size as the Stilts, with very little garden. I feel like it will be very difficult to furnish any of these houses well, given the prim limit. I like the smaller ones best (especially Ender and Gatewood). 5 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet the Average Camper region which is all 512s is really no more than 25 homes Edited December 6, 2021 by Evangeline Ling 4 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I have only seen the pictures. I like the homes themselves, but I'm not so sure about the landscaping. Hoping there will be a bit more to it than what is in the demo region. Even the Traditional homes had hills and more foliage. As someone else mentioned, the limited landscaping is giving the impression of them being closer together and more cooker-cutter like. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Hollyberry Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 The doorknobs are at hand-height! The doorknobs are at hand-height! SOOOO excited about the doorknobs at hand-height Everything is to scale. The rooms are the right size. The floor to ceiling windows are bright and happy. The colour blue of the walls is a wonderful colour blue. I can't wait to decorate one of these for myself ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT120 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I'm liking them. Not gonna give up my perfect log home but I may have to make an alt and go premium for a bit to play with them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartzwhim Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I checked out the new reveal and I actually like the smaller homes. I am a bit let down that the ones I really liked are 512 parcel size. I would have liked to see some flowers about the neighborhood, but I don't think I saw not 1 flower. Hopefully that will come. All in all great work Moles. Many wanted an upgrade to Meadowbrooke and here it is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claireschen Hesten Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Think I may be hanging on to my stilt a while longer yet. Meadowbrook for me was the least bad Linden Home 1.0 option. I did try most of the styles since it wasn't worth getting 512sqm land the short time I was premium years ago. Maybe it's just me but some of the homes have a Trompe Loeil look about them externally. Well that was my first thought with the Bradbury bungalow. While the homes aren't terrible. I'm not sure I want to give up what I have when I have something similar looking from Trompe in my inventory 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia Tamalyn Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I may be missing it when looking at the photos, but I'm not seeing many hedges. That's a big plus if you ask me! (As a side note, I'm certainly glad I'm not a Mole. The tone in some of these comments...yikes.) 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the interior, I think the Newbrooke homes are better designed with more usable space. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity1776 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I'm pretty much going to withhold my judgement on the exterior and landscaping till we see the final release. I think the neighborhoods will look a lot better with a variety of exterior textures. I would like to see more landscaping. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahThe Wanderer Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I like it, it's modern minimalist, love the landscape specially the white rocks, gonna get me one for sure: 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaa Starlight Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I know this is a business and LL is out to make as much money as they can with their product. That said I think the amount of homes on the region are just too much. I know it was said it's because some parcels are 512 while others are 1024 but it still is too much! I love the homes but am really hoping for more landscaping and space(breathing room around neighbors) on the regions themselves. I loved the landscaping and design of the fantasy and am hoping that modern would do some things similar to create more even playing field for good spots. So I'd love to see how the final result turns out and hope the regions will have hills, rivers, waterfalls etc.. to have as many beautiful spots as possible. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myntz Mysterious Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Cant wait to get home this evening to check some of these out. I'm still very much attached to my stilt house at this point. But excited to see whats new that's for sure! 😄 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercedes Avon Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I like them and I can see the possibilities. I will definitely pick one up when they release and tinker with it to see if I want to move in permanently. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eowyn Southmoor Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 guessing the fact that the homes are still WIP is why I'm sinking into the floor? Anyway, they look fairly nice to me, but i prefer the smaller ones on the 512 parcels. Love the fencing and the outdoor areas and pools too. Like with all the other themes though, everyone will race to get one from the initial release, where as the real gems come later when the Moles hand build the unique regions like coastlines etc 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulsian Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Lovely and very well done; another home run gw. I can't wait to start seeing this area pop up on the map. I loved watching and awwing the way the traditionals were put in a few at a time and following the progress. Today was fun event ty. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madonna666 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I quite like them in a nostalgic way. They're a fabbo update for the old Meadowbrook homes (which I've spent a considerable amount of time in 🤣) However because of this I think that's why I'm not swayed at the moment to get one when they're released. However I might down the line swap my public house for one (currently a trad) If there will be some on the coastline available or along a river and depending how far the new regions will be from the centre of Bellisseria. So never say never. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it doesn’t come across as snarky, because I am genuinely interested in knowing. I kind of figured it would be modern. That was my favorite style in the old Linden homes. I’m glad that there will be a choice between 512 and 1024s. That’s something new and unexpected. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Starbrook Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 4 hours ago, Evangeline Ling said: Other than that this region if it is indicative of what a typical "Newbrook" region will look like is some major failsauce. They managed to squeeze in more tightly the houses than even those in the chalet and stilt areas. 30 homes in that region that is way too much. Hardly any water... no interesting topography at all. not like the Chalets but at least Chalets had some interesting topographyWith that said and as much as I'm disappointed.. That’s the way I felt about the chalets at the great reveal. Uninspired. By the time the regions were released, though, the landscaping was a lot more lush. As the design evolved, a lot of water elements were introduced. I’m reserving judgement on the new theme. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
