📋 About This Mod

In my screenshots and video I am using: Tetrachromatic ENB, Vivid Weathers, and Skyrim Mod Combiner textures
4 Mannequins Named Storage Beautiful Views Custom Music Displays for dragon priest masks, claws, and daedric artifacts Shield displays and weapon racks SO many bookshelves Many Custom Textures Optional Kid and Follower Beds Outhouse Stable that horse will wait at when you fast travel or go inside. All crafting stations except a smelter. Some are custom. Navmeshed Static Everything (so stuff won't fly everywhere) Cozy as Fuck
You need BOTH main files. I kept the .esp and resources separate to keep download sizes down for updates and patches. Put these in your Skyrim data folder. GG.
Please use a mod manager. There are a ton of custom resources, textures, and music tracks in this mod and it would be a huge pain to try to manually uninstall.
OPTIONAL FILES
There are two optional patches to change the portal room into a bedroom for either followers or children. You may only use one of these, and you still need the main .esp and resources.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 200 endorsements and 5,505 downloads.
- Custom textures give it a distinct, magical look.
- Plenty of display space for your loot and artifacts.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods.
- No mention of compatibility with popular mods like USSEP or other house mods, so conflicts are possible.
- Limited to a single home; if you're looking for a larger player home mod, this might feel small.
For Skyrim players who want a cozy, magical retreat for their mage character, with plenty of display space. If you're a completionist who loves collecting and showing off items, this is a great fit. Skip if you prefer large, multi-functional player homes or need modern compatibility.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage this mod easily.
- Check the mod's load order; place it after other house mods to avoid conflicts.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, you may need to port the mod or use a compatibility patch.
