Does The Sims™ 2: Package Installer.app tell you that it installed the house?

Does other Custom Content display? Do you have any other missing lots?

It is possible that you have run into the Mac's Open File Limit. You might want to read my post here http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=595866 It will have some symtoms of trying to have too many Open Files on your Mac.

I don't have Sierra I have El Capitan, so I can't test that part, sorry.

Is the file in Teleport after you've installed it and before you've opened the game? Is it gone from Teleport after you've run the game?

What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.

If you have the Too Many Open Files Problem in your Mac the Solution is to Either have less files in your Downloads Folder or do the Fix that I describe here http://www.insimenator.org/index.ph...html#msg1628939

I hope that you can understand it, it is somewhat technical. Try saving a copy of my post there to your computer and then using Google translate on the instructions maybe.

The parts with XML are the parts that you copy and paste into 2 separate files and the rest are instructions.

Check it out and see. If you put the fix in most of the problems that you have been having with the Sims 2 will disapear.

Maybe you have a friend that knows English better? I wish I could translate the instructions for you.
