I managed to (almost) get the look I want, but a wall is created using a roof piece (I am trying to get just a trim). It would be great to have stand-alone eave trimming that we can angle and add a finish to the underside of it without this trimming making walls. If I could delete just the walls using a roof piece, the trimming would be nearly achieved: but that option is not available. This pic represents a copy of common New England Colonial homes. Although we can make barn shaped roofs using the in game tools, these New England Colonials have flat ceilings/walls inside (only the attic has the angled ceiling/roof). The trimming is just for looks in these homes.

P.S. windows for the foundations would also complete a more realistic look when basements are created. In the Colonial shown above, that basement had thin latch windows that let outside light into the basement.
