📋 About This Mod

All DLC's required

Located near Cradle Crush Rock, Hearth Fire is a small, fantasy style home, nestled into an old, ancient tree trunk. Included you will find a hot tub, a garden with a green house and an Armory in the basement.  There are two versions because I am not good at scripting enough to make a magic button that changes the rooms. The HMA version is compatible with HearthFire Multiple Adoptions and can sleep up to 4 children. The regular version makes the former mentioned child's room a followers quarters for up to 4. Do not install both. You either want kids or you don't. I do not recommend switching to a different version in the same game. If you do change your mind and decide you want to try the other one, Remove your belongings (and your family if thats the case) and then you need to disable or remove the old one before installing the new. If not the world may explode.

You have the option to fast travel here and it will drop you off right at the front gate with the for sale sign. Cost of the property is 2000 septim

Your fridge in the kitchen and the trunks in the house are safe storage . Also anything that is empty like a knapsack is also safe.

There is an alchemy bench in the green house for those times you don't want to go inside. Also , 12 soil piles in the planter for you to plant as you wish. The garden has plenty of veggies that will respawn.

The hot tub is seated for 5 and has a feature to let you get naked but you do have to redress yourself. Your followers should also remove clothing and redress themselves. Children may go in and take a while to redress but seem to do so eventually. Also you can activate and disable the water and steam by using the faucet. The tub will un-fill upon disable.

There is a place to chop wood at the stable, as well as a fire pit for you and your followers to enjoy.

There is a forge along with a tanning area and a few ample supplies and potions for your convenience. The supplies given from crates and etc are based on level so will vary upon that.

Inside you will find a cozy living room with a place for some books and your Elder Scrolls , along with a few alters scattered about.

In the kitchen there is some food, storage, a place to cook and bake. Barrels are not safe storage and will respawn making  your stuff disappear , so don't add anything to them .

If you have the adoptions version there is also a way to set the table or unset it by going to the shelves where the dishes are. The water in the sink also turns  on and off.

The Armory door is a Trap Door under the staircase. Inside you will find plenty of di
