Adds a classy player home on the river bank near Fort Magia.


Details

This is the first mod released by me. It adds a good sized, classy player home with hallway, kitchen, dining area, living room, study, bedroom, bathroom, companion friendly basement, garden shed, beach area with gazebo, and a small target practice range.

The mod has been cleaned with TES4Edit and all meshes have been optimized with PyFFI 2.1.9

None known.


Other issues
============
Please note that if you use HDR Lighting in-game, the interiors may appear too bright, and shiny surfaces may glow unnaturally. This is beyond my control, and is caused by some of the resource textures used having overly reflective textures.
