: Green is the new cool -  even when it's  harnessing the fiery power of the sun, or the cold chilly wind. Your Sims won’t just be saving the planet with their solar panels and windmills, they’ll be saving Simoleons, too!
* '''Fence Columns'''
: Fence columns allow you to build the porch of your dreams and other covered areas surrounded by railings and columns. They support floors and roofs above them, so just imagine all the beautiful possibilities!
Line 52 ⟶ 56:
===Building Dazzling Exteriors===
This stuff pack adds a variety of new styles and decorations for mansions.
 
* '''Art Deco'''
: Best described as modern and elegant, this style uses basic shapes and geometric elements for purely decorative purposes. Art Deco is excellent for the purpose of achieving a modern-retro look.
Line 61 ⟶ 64:
 
==The Sims 2: Mansion and Garden Stuff Cheat==
* '''''setQuarterTilePlacement [on | off]'''''
:After entering this cheat you can turn quarter tile placement on and off using “Ctrl + F” anytime you are in Build or Buy Mode. Quarter Tile Placement allows you to place objects offset from the grid in quarter tile increments.

==Trivia==
* This is the biggest stuff pack for ''[[The Sims 2]]''. It includes many new objects, hairstyles and architecture elements. Apart from that, there are also animations for the new objects (the ceiling fan, for example). The only other stuff pack with new gameplay features and animations was ''[[The Sims 2: Happy Holiday Stuff]]''.
* When the player installs or runs the pack, it is referred to as "Expansion Pack 9".
* If the player has ''The Sims 2: Nightlife'', the game will show that the player has ''The Sims 2: Double Deluxe'' instead when selecting the Downtown Chooser.
