📋 About This Mod

What does this mod do?

This mod uses the Great Cities series' Reach Town/Village house architecture to overhaul the single house at Kolskeggr Mine, effectively finalising coverage of non-farm or otherwise uniquely architectured houses in the hold.

This settlement mod is completely standalone, however, it is intended to be used alongside the following:

  • []The Great Village of Old Hroldan

    []The Great Town of Karthwasten

    Also available are my lighting tweaks to the above mods to make the house interiors feel a little more homely. The tweaks are contained only to the cells and light placements in the houses and touch nothing else. If you are using a patched lighting overhaul, such as one of those found on the "Patch Collection" for Old Hroldan or Karthwasten (Links will take you to the corresponding Patch Collection), you should skip my tweaked plugins as they will conflict.

    Compatibility

    This mod will likely conflict with mods that edit Kolskeggr Mine and/or the interior of the house.

    I currently offer this mod as is and will not be providing any patches for other mods, although people are free to make and upload any patches they like.

    Credits

    Archinatic for making the Great Cities mods and providing the archtiecture as a modders resource.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 852 endorsements and over 500k downloads.
  • Simple visual upgrade that makes Kolskeggr Mine fit the Reach's architectural style.
  • Lightweight and focused—doesn't touch gameplay, just the house.

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires two other mods (The Great Town of Karthwasten and The Great Village of Old Hroldan) to work.
  • Last updated in 2022—might have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or other mods.
  • Only changes one house; if you're expecting a full overhaul of the mine, this isn't it.
🎯 Is This For You?

📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have both required mods installed and loaded before this one, or the house may not appear correctly.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle load order—place this mod after the dependencies.
  • Check for patches if you use other mods that alter Kolskeggr Mine, as conflicts may occur.
