This lavish medieval manor is attached to a blacksmith’s forge. It’s been updated to be fully compatible with the Off-the-Grid lifestyle and include Cottage Living content as well as other newer packs. This is a revamp of an older lot I built many years ago before Off-the-Grid was an official feature in the game. Community spaces have special instructions for being placed properly so make sure you read the Gallery description for this lot carefully. The default space has some generic fun activities for Sims to enjoy, but if you need something more specific, you can vote to turn this lot into a marketplace, a community garden, or a maker space. This medieval community space offers plenty for local residents to do. Good thing there’s three bedrooms that can accommodate up to five Sims. With six animal sheds, four chicken coops, 50 garden plots, birds, bees, insects, and bunnies to tend to, anyone living here will have their hands full. This mid-priced family farm is the largest plot of land in Henford-on-Bagley and isn’t for anyone who’s afraid of hard work. With thick stone walls, narrow windows, guards and cannons on the roof, training yard, animals, and crops secure inside strong courtyard walls, and a moat running along the back of the building with a hungry alligator in it, only the bravest souls would dare try and infiltrate this stronghold. This small, fortified manor fit for a knight puts safety first. It has outdoorsy activities for all ages, including toddlers, so everyone can take a break from toiling in the fields once in a while and have some fun. This (mostly) medieval park is a great spot to enjoy an afternoon with the entire family. No electricity or items that generate electricity, so no wind turbines, solar panels, or generators.All plumbing and appliances had to be functional Off-the-Grid and look rustic and/or old.I had a few rules for myself when designing my medieval Henford-on-Bagley to make sure I was keeping things as low-tech as possible while still creating fun and functional spaces for my Sims: It does its job bringing my imagination back in time while I’m playing. I’m not a historical expert by any means and I also had to work within the game’s limitations but I love this (mostly) medieval world I’ve created, anyway.

Before you check these builds out yourself and go “Hey Snarky, this isn’t actually 100% authentic to medieval history,” you’re absolutely right. I spent weeks rebuilding Henford-on-Bagley from the ground up with CC-free medieval builds! All the builds are functional off-the-grid and are actually livable, usable spaces for your Sims so you can play normally in them.
