In the Realm of Magic pack, the window called "Window of Opportunity" gives off a white PVC windows vibe. I use them all the time in my builds when I want the houses to look more "British" in their style. You want to choose the white swatch, this gives you the window WITHOUT the stain-glass patterns on the frame and inner frame.
@@DevonBumpkin ALSO just realised too, all the white swatches for the windows in this pack even the rounded ones work the same way. So you can even use the rounded corner windows too in the same way with the square window in between them. Great for a front living room window.
Love your British builds Aiden. I'd also love to see you do terrace of three of these council homes and do each in a different decor style that the residents might aspire to. So perhaps a cottage decor style, an industrial one and a boho. But there's SO MANY different styles out there. I just think it'd be fun to see how different you could make the standard British council home look.
Thank you for this! I've lived in council homes all my life and even today I can't afford to rent privately or buy my own home, I'm definitely not embarrassed as I used to be to say my home is council owned.
Hailing from the states, here. A good 80-90 percent of families who take government housing (and food assistance) are people trying to provide for their families and are perfectly LOVELY individuals. I’ve had so many of them come through when I was working in retail back in the day and they were always my favorite customers. The problem is the 10-20 percent a**holes who screw over the system and ruin it for the rest. Personally, I feel if a government is going to make it SO difficult to afford living, they need to to allow concessions in some ways.
Watching you do the detailing on the build and, while we're from completely different ends of the UK, this is SO BRITISH I can actually feel it through the screen lol. Love it!
I lived in one of these for last year in primary school and going into secondary school. 3 bedroom, the box room was smaller than a closet, couldn't open the door the full way because the single bed took up too much room! We didn't have sky TV then, it was before sky TV days! Love the British builds and want to see more of them.
there is a swatch of the realm of magic window that i find looks fairly pvc british style lol. its the "window of opportunity" and theres a plain white and black swatch that i use for builds like this
It’s currently 33°C / 90°F where I am, and with humidity factored in, you can imagine the discomfort. I hope the heatwave you’re supposed to be getting isn’t that terrible and everyone stays safe! Happy building! ❤
I grew up on a council estate where everyone knew everyone else -great timesWe had a car (there were only 3 on the street at the time) We had a phone that everyone in the street would come and use instead of walking to the phone box 🤦🏻♀️😂And yes,we had a sky dish 😂Hope you had a fantastic holiday!
My uncle & auntie lived in a house just like this when I was a kid. Only difference was it was 3 bed as they had 3 kids & the interior decor was brown. But feels very nostalgic.
I’m kind of obsessed with sims tiny houses! But this one feels like the most realistic one I’ve seen. I’ve definitely been in this house before vibes 👏
I had to google mrs Hinge and ended up finding an article on her old house. She actually has a vanity table that looks exactly like the one from that luxe kit (I forget the name) I love decorating houses that are not my taste at all. It’s so fun doing a theme or basing it on something existing
omg the speed build music was SO CUTE. Also, why don't we have decent gates in the Sims?!?! I tried looking for CC on curseforge but there was like, 4 total, and none of them worked for what I wanted.
I went off to check out Mrs Hinch and was shocked to see her living room looking just like yours, with the addition of crushed velvet sofas. Thought I would hate it but it’s actually quite appealing. I personally prefer a little colour but I don’t mind a clean white base.
Agh, I’m absolutely obsessed with your entire beingggg!! lol Srsly, watching your vids inspired me to start posting my own. Thank you for always being a cheeky pick me up past time for me. ❤
AHAAHA ur little comments on different bits, like when u placed the smooth keeper, and then said "trip hazard" AHAHAAHHAAH i laughed so much, thanks for a great video and an good build!, i just subscribed!
Absolutely loved this, I grew up in an ex-council house and watching this is so nostalgic, I always loved living in a smaller house because it felt so cosy to me
Devon, you are a gem. Your videos are an anchor in stormy seas and your voice is like a siren singing in the darkness leading us all back to the light... Thank you
You did put a pipe on the left, it got deleted when you did the fence. We have similar looking places here in Canada, near Ottawa. I was from the deep countryside so I didn’t know those places when I was young, discovered them when I moved to town. The boyfriend of one of my cousin was raised in one of them.
Me and my Husband lived in an MOD property in Plymouth and looked similar heheheh :P We had PVC windows where it had the pvc white panels at the bottom, when we had storms and really windy they bent inwards, thought the windows were going to come in! Lovely house Aden :D Oooh you are naughty chucking the newspapers under a bush lol 😂 😂 When we were looking to buy a house one was all grey 3 bedroomed both big bedrooms everything was grey ewww
Love your channel, Aden. I'm probably responsible for so many views because I'll put you on to fall asleep. Your voice is soothing LOL!! But then I rewatch, because I want to be sure I pay attention at least one of the watches.
Don’t know Mrs Hinch but you created such a compelling character. 😅 The music was giving Pixar vibes. Hope you don’t mind me asking but what’s the name of the track (assume you use epidemic sound)?
Looking refreshed! Newcrest is truly the driest of worlds I know the sims team gave their reasons for making all of the lots empty but they could’ve at least made the surrounding scenery look interesting 🤨 Pvc windows are horrendously hideous but they are a staple for British-home-nostalgia 🤌 Gonna have to watch this in parts. - 4:25 - to come back and finish
so cute! also was the icon of your logo in the thumbnail of the video meant to look like a pp? I know its your initials but the lowercase letters back to back made me giggle a bit
Haven't watched yet (know I'll love it like always), I need to pop in the comments to ask something. Does anyone know off hand Aden's creator code? I might remember (I think it's "bumpkin") but want to double check.
This is absolutely a young grandmother’s house (she prefers to be called “Glammy” because she isn’t “old enough” to be a Nan or Grandma)
Why did I think of one of my aunts who isn't a grandma yet 😅
Brilliant 😂
‘Glam-ma’
B&M-core, perfect
Now now! Rishi Sunak never had Sky TV 😂😂😂 I love this, grew up in an 80s council house and had the best days of my life with a massive garden! Xx❤
Oh I forgot this, I felt so bad for him 🎻
Literally was going to say reckon a young Rishi looked up with dreams in his mind when he saw the sky dish 😅😅😅
Love when you do British builds. Makes me feel all nostalgic ❤
I love when you do British builds! It's so fun to get to know the different styles through you.

OMG I never knew this window existed! Its perfect!
@@DevonBumpkin I knew you'd like it! ENJOY! Would love to see you use them ASAP in one of your builds

"Enough room to swing a hamster in it... NOT a cat."
*scrambles for BOTH asthma medicine*
Im British and I've lived in council houses all my life! My parents are disabled so we had to live in a tiny council house ❤
It's totally Mrs Finch! A desaturated space dedicated to cleanliness lol!
The interior is totally bringing back memories of 2000s British home makeover shows like 60 Minute Makeover. I love the nostalgia!

Home sick today and watching my comfort youtuber ❤️

‘Very Dunelm’ 😂 thank you 🙏
Please keep being you and creating brilliant content ❤
"Devoid of soul" so right! I am loving your narrative. I'm really here for that!!
This is basically the house I grew up in!
I discovered your channel at 1:30 this morning and I'm in love!!! Wonderful builds🥰🥰🥰

That is spot on for Mrs Hinch's living room apart from the rug should be shag pile lol.
I went off to check out Mrs Hinch and was shocked to see her living room looking just like yours, with the addition of crushed velvet sofas. Thought I would hate it but it’s actually quite appealing. I personally prefer a little colour but I don’t mind a clean white base.
I live in Australia and the council houses look similar here.
A few of them put together on the same lot would make a good council estate.
This looked so much like my home growing up, I was actually startled for a second when I saw the thumbnail
I moved to the UK last year and am so glad that I’m finally getting your references 😂
Agh, I’m absolutely obsessed with your entire beingggg!! lol Srsly, watching your vids inspired me to start posting my own. Thank you for always being a cheeky pick me up past time for me. ❤

love this! the park is so nostalgic TT
i want to live in one of these so bad 😭 they have so much charm
I live the nostalgia I get when I see a satellite dish in your builds
Very clean, it speaks to my OCD virgo self! I feel her vibe apart from the no color of course...
I remember when you build the council block (I think it was called) and I loved that so much!
As much as I hate the crushed velvet look, you’ve nailed it. Also love a wee visit to Dunelm so no judgement here
Ah so many of those near here too! Love to see these in a row sometime!
Love this! And you have a great personality :-) very entertaining and it was super relaxing to watch how your build worked out ❤
This house is so aggressively B&M, home bargains, dunelm and tk maxx. Excellent job hehe 😝
OMG the vibes of this are perfect! Very Mrs Hinch!!!
Me and my Husband lived in an MOD property in Plymouth and looked similar heheheh :P
We had PVC windows where it had the pvc white panels at the bottom, when we had storms and really windy they bent inwards, thought the windows were going to come in!
Lovely house Aden :D
Oooh you are naughty chucking the newspapers under a bush lol 😂 😂
When we were looking to buy a house one was all grey 3 bedroomed both big bedrooms everything was grey ewww
I will absolutely be contacting your mom
about the plastic willow 😂
"Verrrry Dunelm!" 😂
The music is giving big Six Feet Under vibes
Aden you are glowing! 😍
Why have you built my aunt's house?
Kidding but it's eerily similar 😅
You've given me an idea for a tiny town idea (using deligracy's challenge) but council house tiny town. (my last tiny town challenge went squiffy)
the vibes are *chef kiss* no notes.
So im in southern American and its been 105 degrees f. I don't know what that is in Celsius 😂
Absolutely loved this build. ❤
We had record temp of 107F yesterday, no air movement. Very odd for this part of the US
i believe minc does some windows with the pvc look, as well as some other lovely cc sets. I believe they are sims resource though.
Love your channel, Aden. I'm probably responsible for so many views because I'll put you on to fall asleep. Your voice is soothing LOL!! But then I rewatch, because I want to be sure I pay attention at least one of the watches.
ooo new music, its giving sims 3 vibes
This really reminds me of the street I grew up in! (Estover) another great build 👏
Estover boy here too! :D
i can smell this house and im obsessed with it
Slap on some pebbledash and paint everything inside magnolia and it's like I never left! Would never swap that council house childhood for anything
I'm so glad you're back!
‘We’ve got enough room to swing a hamster in here…’ 😂😂😂😂😂😂☺️😂
No but I thought the words MRS HINCH the second before you said them!!!
The amount of times we had parties at a single house because it was the only one with sky 😂
It’s screaming for a live laugh love sign
Aden: Do we have a gate for this? Me: No. Sight unseen, no. They NEVER have a gate.
Love it ... but I wanted to ask... No mailbox? ... Anyway... glad to see you back after your holiday ... you deserved it ...
We don't have mailboxes in the UK. We have letterboxes on the door :)
Ive heard this decoration style called fiat 500 😂
In the US, we call it the projects.
Council House - how nice. We call them PROJECTS in the USA - not a great thing. Let me tell you.
Just perfect 😂❤
Moving mrs.crumblebottom in immidately
Not me working for Dunelm, feeling like you're mad at me 🙈🤣
Not at all! Love a bitta Dunelm (sometimes)
Nothing wrong with a bit of Dunelm.
the modern luxe kit not including a crushed velvet sofa feels like a crime against mrs hinch😭
Legit my garden… 😂
Don’t know Mrs Hinch but you created such a compelling character. 😅 The music was giving Pixar vibes. Hope you don’t mind me asking but what’s the name of the track (assume you use epidemic sound)?
It's on Epidemic Sound and it's called Charmed Encounter by Arthur Benson :)
@@DevonBumpkin Ah thank you so much. Listening again now it reminds me of WALL-E 🥹
Looking refreshed!
Newcrest is truly the driest of worlds I know the sims team gave their reasons for making all of the lots empty but they could’ve at least made the surrounding scenery look interesting 🤨
Pvc windows are horrendously hideous but they are a staple for British-home-nostalgia 🤌
Gonna have to watch this in parts.
- 4:25 - to come back and finish
Honestly wish I could delete the world 😂
I bet even her junk drawer is organized.
You definitely did put that drain pipe in. Don’t let this game gaslight you!
Right? I knew it
There’s enough room to swing a hamster, not a cat 🤣🤣🤣
20:37 imagine farting and someone brings out a vacuum to suck the scent out of your bum 😩
how did you manage to get the fence on the very edge of the lot???? ive wanted to be able to this for ages
Very keeping up appearances
I had to google Mrs. Hinch
so cute! also was the icon of your logo in the thumbnail of the video meant to look like a pp? I know its your initials but the lowercase letters back to back made me giggle a bit
Is a council house supposed to be "free housing" in the UK?
this is cute
Haven't watched yet (know I'll love it like always), I need to pop in the comments to ask something. Does anyone know off hand Aden's creator code? I might remember (I think it's "bumpkin") but want to double check.
It's 'BUMPKIN' thank you so much!
What device do u play this game om?
Our council house is from the 1880s rofl.
What mods did u use
If there are no kids, why the swing and playground?
Just because?
