Leora Greenwood Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) I am not as big a fan of large houses so my favorite so far is the Bella Vista, layout #2 (the open plan, Bella Rosa is the other #2 floorplan): Edited December 7, 2023 by Leora Greenwood clarity counts 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persephone Emerald Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) I'm glad they're showing some of the model homes with furniture. * I haven't been to see them yet, so I only know from the pictures posted.

Leora Greenwood Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 I will admit to a preference for the open-plan layouts. Here is #3 Open Plan - Precioso. I love the back with that gorgeous patio! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elora Lunasea Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Just dumped my ranch waiting for these. Walked through the decorated ones and I really like all the open, sunny spaces. Any idea when they may actually be available? I've been so busy with RL work stuff I feel like I'll miss out on the release! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christhiana Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I love the new theme. That'll be a yes for me! I especially like the 'Grande' models. They will need some Spanish tile flooring though to make them perfect, but that is easily done. Once again an amazing job by the Lindens and Moles! They keep outdoing themselves ♥ 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leora Greenwood Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 Here is the Open Plan version of House 1 - Felicita. It has the loveliest chimneys and a back patio that just begs for the pool attached in the demo. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leora Greenwood Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 Here are a few pics of #4 Open Plan - Gran Palma. I love the balconies and the exterior stairs but confess to being a bit confused about the layout upstairs as both the Normal and the Open Plan in the demos area have a bunch of small rooms upstairs. So I will not photograph those till I figure out what is what. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they just not rez or did you derender things so you could take the pics? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Istelathis Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) I like them I would rather have an urban theme though, something cyberpunk with lots of neon lights and excitement, I'm not much for the lifestyle of the rich and famous. Give me a bit of grunge, a bit of techno dystopia, and excitement and I'm in. It is hard to argue with a view like this though Edited December 7, 2023 by Istelathis 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only derendered a couple of trees to improve the view in exterior shots so I would say they had just not rezzed for me. The demo region IS very crowded, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moles Lulabell Mole Posted December 7, 2023 Moles Share Posted December 7, 2023 Ah. I'm sorry you didn't get to see the home with all the furnishings rezzed. Perhaps when it's less busy you might want to take another look. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps when it's less busy you might want to take another look. I will be happy to! I especially love the fact that there are at least five parcels in the demo region with live house controllers so we can play with and examine the various floorplans.

SarahKB7 Koskinen Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) I like their design, but these homes exterior textures look "too new" to be authentically Mediterranean. They could all do with a retexturing option to allow worn, old, cracked, chipped, dirtier exterior texturing to make it look more natural, contemporary and convincing. At the moment, they all look like freshly built retro-Med show homes from a "new build" housing development. And the actual Mediterranean isn't like that. These kinds of homes can be several hundred years old. And the same with the surrounding street texturing too.

Christhiana Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I think that is what they are meant to represent. I will make Exterior Paint Shells for them, that'll give you some options.... 9 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evangeline Arcadia Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) I'm not on the Plus plan so I won't be getting one of these, but I do think they're really nicely done. I think they have an elegant feel. I particularly love the long windows and love love love the balconys! They (the balconys) are the best out of the homes so far IMO. It's great that some of the demo homes have been furnished again. Adding an optional fireplace is a nice touch.

I've always like one-storey homes. There are some details in the larger homes that I like, too. I'm excited about this new theme. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Sangria Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Well done, Linden Labs and Moles! Many residents will want this. That being said, I would love to see 'Craftsman Bungalows, Prairie style, and a true 'Modern' like the Trompe Loeil builds in Bellisseria. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starladustangel Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Oh they are pretty. I'm scared of dropping my ranch house yet knowing 2048s are not always available but I'd love to have one in the future 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity Blakewell Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 They're pretty enough for me to revisit going to PP+, but is it really worth an extra $150 a year to me? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
