FISHERMANS COTTAGE ver 3 - go fishing on the Abbecean Sea
yZsyoI_zuh0
The Fisherman's Cottage is located west of Anvil. Follow the coastline from Anvil Harbor and you will run into it. It is built on a pier on the shore and has an extraordinary view over the Abbecean sunset. The house is for free, but with ver 3 it comes with a small quest. Noone knows what happened to the fisherman who used to lived here, but if you look on the table on the pier outside the cottage, you will get a clue on how to obtain the key. NOTE: If you are already using the cottage and don't want to do the quest, read section "Upgrade". The house is lower class Anvil style (interior no 1) furnished with middle class- and some lower class furniture. It includes dining-room, kitchen with fireplace and a double-bedroom on second floor. Trapdoor to basement with extra storage capacity and an abundance of crafting features. It is made companion-friendly, is fully path-gridded and has persistant beds and chairs that companions can use. The mod also includes 26 no-respawn-containers (many of them 'mini-barrels') in the main cottage and 42 non-respawn-containers in the basement. Outside the cottage, there are 4 non-respawn barrels.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2015, consider using a mod manager like Wrye Bash or OBMM to avoid overwriting conflicts.
- Head west from Anvil Harbor along the coast to find the cottage—it's on a pier, so keep an eye on the shoreline.
- If you're using Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE), check if the mod requires it; if not, it should work with a standard install.
