📋 About This Mod
The Treasure of Riverwood Manor
"Riverwood Manor is the scene of an old legend. Rumor has it that Riverwood Manor was once built by a Dragonborn. Not much can be said about the former owner, except that he mysteriously disappeared and is said to have left behind a fabulous treasure. Perhaps the new owner will find the legendary treasure one day, should it really exist." (Author unknown)
This extensive mod features a small and simple player house near Riverwood for beginners, a second player home as an alternative, an epic treasure hunt, unique NPCs and followers, real master trainers, powerful equipment, weapons and spells. There are new locations to explore, several eastereggs and much more to discover.

Requires Skyrim Special Edition 1. 6. 342. 0 or greater. NOT SUPPORTED ON OLDER VERSIONS!
Main Features:
Player Home
A small player home near Riverwood with everything you need for a good start. The estate contains things like forge, workbench, smelter, grain mill, garden with fertile soils for planting, an oven, a functional butterchurn for homemade butter as well as training dummies with which you can improve your skills and many other features. The Armory in the basement has lots of weapon racks and mannequins to display your weapons and armor.
In the trophy room you have the opportunity to display your collectibles such as dragon priest masks, dragon claws and so on.
The estate is located west of Riverwood and is marked on the map. In order to get the key for the house, read the note at the door. This will start the quest.
The house is fully Hearthfire compatible, which means your whole family can move in, but you need to install the MOD Hearthfire Multiple Adoptions for this to work, which is optional. If you don't want your family to move in, you don't need to install that mod.
A second alternative player home has been added in version 1. 9.
Treasure Hunt
The treasure hunt features a fabulous treasure with powerful enchanted equipment, weapons and spells, which you will normally not find in Vanilla Skyrim. I don't want to reveal some details, because there would be no surprise and you should have fun to find things out on your own. The treasure is meant for mid and end game, but if you manage it to find the treasure on lower levels, you can consider yourself lucky. But be warned: Some things may be a little bit overpowered then. In order to find the treasure you can use your quest marker, but only up to a certain point, then you will be on your own.
To start the quest read the note in the basement.

Adds two small player homes near Riverwood, a treasure hunt, new quests, unique NPCs and followers, master trainers, and powerful gear. For Skyrim players wanting a content-rich but beginner-friendly addition. 278 endorsements and 6,058 downloads show solid community support.
