About this mod

Just adds a simple, free, starter player home in Balmora.
The house is located on Balmora's West side, next to the pawnbroker.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
I created this mod because I wanted a simple, starter home in the city of Balmora. While mods like 'Balmora Lighthouse' are beautiful and I highly recommend that one in particular, it didn't quite fit in with my early game role roleplaying. 

The house is a simple, one room job with a bed, wardrobe, chest, shelves and a bookcase. Please not that the clutter from the screenshots is not included, and was placed there in game by my character. It just looks better with some bits around than completely bare for the screenshots.
I have made the house with only simple furnishings to encourage players to decorate themselves and be able to move in without having to worry about discarding 20 redware bowls you don't want. I also find that it makes decorating more individualised and character building, (especially if you like role-playing). 

I imagine that my character claimed this house by murdering a distant aunt she knew to be in Balmora, after arriving in Seyda Neen. 

Cell name in CS is 'Home'.
Please note that I adapted the original version of this mod whilst having Tamriel Rebuilt and Tamriel Data loaded as Master files, however it should not need them to run. 
You can remove their requirements via Wyre Mash. It's a simple and quick fix to the mod. It may complain that some master files weren't selected when you go to update it's master list, click ok through it all then hit save, thus removing those two master files.
Credit goes to Saliosnoctin for this easy fix. 

I have also included an optional file of my original version of the house, with reduced and less fancy furnishings for a more minimal, starter vibe. 

Enjoy your new home :)


Compatible with version 2.8.9 of BCOM.


Future plans 
- look into bug that teleports the player to roof instead of entering interior house cell
- implement door fix for the minimal furnishings version
- add a key to for the home so you don't have to break in to enter for the first time
