Vetrheim (vinter - home) a medium sized apartment in the Gray Quarter in Windhelm, next to Sadri's Used Wares.
Simple story for the origin of the mod? I'm playing a Dunmer and I wanted to live with my fellow dark elves after I got rid of the bigot Ulfric.
So imagine you had all the septims you could need, and you want to build a REALLY nice place to Windhelm? Jarl's Steward goes, "Sorry, we just don't have any mansions or lots available right now, but you are free to renovate the Vetrheim house, it's been empty since The Butcher got Niruva.
And that's how this flat was build.

This mod utilizes the General Displays mod for displaying unique items.
Use the "Treasures" safe in the secret room.
Troubleshooting these features is most efficient at the page for that mod.
No other versions will be made, but I will provide updates and fixes if the need arises as I'm sure it does.
