housing.
the pinegrove apartment building looms over the cul-de-sac and casts its imposing shadow, which might normally cause problems if not for the impressive number of lights its equipped with. this is where the majority of shadowpeaks residents live. the floor plan is nothing to sneeze at, and each apartment will feature accents in your sin colors and have a kitchen, a living room, 2 bathrooms, & 2 bedrooms. the front door will also have a crest with your sin brand on it. they'll also have electricity, running water, and be minimally furnished ( ex. pots, pans, utensils, beds, sheets, chairs, & tables ) - any additional decor can be either found or won ( in games ).
if you'd like to broaden your horizons ( and expand your living situation ) then you can always leave the pinegrove apartments in favor of moving into one of the empty houses framing it. there are two types of floor plans, but the only difference is the size. like the apartments your accent colors will depend on the sins inhabiting the house as will the crests on the doors. you'll also get a minimally furnished house.
🎇 all of the previous upgrades belonging to your sin's original houses are still available, but now they exist in a shared pocket dimension - so if kaveh and neuvillette both open the door to the spa, then they'll end up crossing paths in the spa. in your character's new homes they'll stumble across a couple of different doors labeled with sin brands corresponding to theirs ( and their roommates ) with the upgrades residing behind them. *note* that only a wrath can open a wrath door and only an envy can open an envy door even if they happen to be living under the same roof - robin can't open the door to wrath's pool, but sunday can invite robin into wrath's pool.
in either case ( apartment or house ) you'll find a severely aged brochure that feels familiar...

Spa.
At the center is a grand soaking pool bath with added jets and mood lighting, while a suspended gem chandelier under a domed skylight provides a calming ambiance of sophistication. Prefer a smaller bathtub to fill with rose petals and read a book in? A private section provides two near the rain showers for your individual enjoyment!
A separate section features double rain showers with frame-less glass enclosures and privacy mists when someone is within, along with many options for a pleasurable experience. Misting, jet sprays, fragrant waters are all among the options to enjoy, and these drain and sanitize after every use. Amazing! And of course, private toilets with hose and bidet cleaning are tucked away in alcoves providing full privacy and odor elimination post-use. You'll have enough toilet paper, but don't expect to get more back if you use any of it to throw at anyone else's home out of spite!
The faucets and sinks are elevated with elegant small gem inlays across the edges, while the cabinets come fully stocked with all one needs for their experience- soft towels and robes in whatever sizes one needs, sanitary napkins and necessities and makeup removing wipes, headbands for those facials and masks, and a product cabinet with luxury shampoos, soaps, moisturizers, oils and creams as well as bath salts and dried flowers. While these unfortunately cannot be given to anyone else outside of Pride, they are certainly welcome to visit and indulge in them.
The massage beds in a separate, private section with decorated walls for privacy, are covered in soft silver fabric that replaces and sanitizes itself after every use, and incensories provide a gentle mist for the ambiance. The glittering ceiling gems change color with a soft glow to add to the mood- bring a companion to enjoy yourself, or go hands on. 😉 The accompanying sauna's wooden benches are lined with silver and purple cushions, with moonstone accents in the wood to provide a subtle ethereal glow when hit by the ambient lighting.
All of this comes together to create a luxurious space- and lucky for all, full sanitation and cleaning happens every twelve hours. It's like those bloodstains weren't even there!
