"Welcome to Ashington, where the lake and mountains meet the sea. If you love fishing, gardening or just the outdoors, this is the perfect town for you and your family."
When I managed to fix the EIG issue (thanks to this video), the world was already in its testing phase, so I decided to leave it as it was, with just a few minor changes that would include some selected expansions, the ones that I thought would suit the world better. These changes are limited to the lots only and not to the world. In fact, what I did was simply placing lots that I would otherwise have shared separately. This is the list of items used for each EP:
Ambitions: washing machines and clotheslines in four houses (3 The Rose, 2 The Lake, 3 The Gardens, and 3 The Circle);
Late Night: lot assignments, bars and items in hangout spots;
Generations: recreational objects in the festival lot and wedding arches in two nightclubs. Toddlers' inventory may also contain the imaginary friend doll;
Pets: pet-related objects in the dog park, cat jungle, and festival lot;
Seasons: recreational objects in the festival lot.
If you don't have some of these EPs, the objects will be removed or replaced with base game ones according to EA settings, but the world itself will still be functional.
Lots
All rabbit holes from the base game (but the diner) are included. The military base, science lab, and criminal hideout are in basements because of size reasons.
The world features a library, a gym with an indoor and an outdoor pool (there isn't a separate community pool), an art gallery (built by me but inspired by the one in Distant Glacier by MySimRealty), a dog park, a cat jungle, two big parks, a small park, a festival ground, four hangout spots of different types, a beach, and two fishing spots.
There are 38 Sims (19 males and 19 females, plus 4 unrevealed pregnancies) living in Ashington, divided into 13 households each with its own story. Their ages cover all life stages from toddler to elder. All Sims are base game compatible, most know at least one skill, have a job, and have relationships and friendships outside their household.
Known issues
The festival lot was somehow wiped clean when I populated the world, but I only noticed one month after uploading to the Exchange. Please bulldoze it and replace it with the correct one (alternate download link)
In winter, Nraas Overwatch reports stuck Sims complaining that they cannot exit Lake Peak. I checked the routing around the lot and tried to bulldoze and replace it to no avail. I couldn't figure out what the problem was, but it seems linked to heavy snow, and possibly igloos and snowmen taking up place and blocking Sims.
Wild horses may get stuck on the hospital lot because it's only large enough to fit the rabbit hole. The world isn't built for horses anyway, so you may want to disable them.
Not really an issue, but from an aerial view the road in front of the town hall looks warped near the pond when it's actually flat.

(Screenshots were taken without the use of lighting mods, and not edited. The snow looks a little different because I use the Snow but better! Mod by Liralei. Other than that, that is exactly how the world looks in-game.)

Diving right through the roof of the gym lot in Ashington by @floweringash
This world is a remake of Eriu Fe' by @gruesim without the custom content. Eriu Fe' is one of my favorite worlds, but the houses are unfurnished. I really love the waterfalls and the lakes in this world. I didn't know my Sim could jump so high on the diving board. She went right through the roof, hilarious!
