Just want to give my compliments to you, since I’ve gone down a Skyrim player home mod rabbit hole to find the perfect home for my character. You’re my absolute favorite Skyrim realtor!
If you're on PC, you can use console to click on the bed and type clear ownership. Then followers can sleep in the beds. You can also setscale to 1 to bring them back to normal size if they'll fit.
Finally, nice, clean, apartment, standing in the Solitude itself (no dock, no 200km away, or far inside the Solitude, right near the exit which is very nice), and its very well balanced in terms of size😊
That home is adorable, love it! The yard is just the best! In all reality, there is nothing that I don’t just simply love!! Thank you Feb, awesome showcase, you’re the best!
Things I like: The technique of having it be "in" Solitude and exit to Solitude, but not actually taking up Solitude real estate and not needing patches for it to work with any town overhaul. That's actually brilliant and I'd love to see more mod authors take notice. The enclosed private yard. The purchasable extras - wish there were more soils, though. Things I don't like: The interior layout is weird and awkward and unfortunately a dealbreaker for me. Having kid beds and no option for fthem to be follower beds instead. I'm personally not a fan of mixing Dwemer architecture with other styles. Unless it's a whole Dwemer house, I don't want to see Dwemer clutter. But that's just me. Thank you as always for doing this home tour!
It's an interesting idea for a player home mod in a bustling city. The key teleporting you to your front yard in a neighbourhood in Solitude that you can see over the wall and through the gate.
I love that you come through the door onto the staircase then down past the bedrooms into the heart of the home It confused me a bit when you first came in lol but once I got my bearings I really liked it 😊
Hi Feb!!! This house is nice for being in Solitude. I like the bedrooms accessible right away. For a home that initially looks like it might be huge, it's not. It is just right. 😅 There's some things I would change and things I would add, but as it is, I really like it. 👍 😊 Lots of love!!
Yeh I got your texture pack for Solitude after you referenced it in another video and I think it looks great, amazing difference. I noticed the Ivy on the brickwork too. It looks like the normal maps are inverted in some places? I quite like this one but would prefer a physical entrance to use in Solitude.
Locket, brilliant. I would abuse it to move in, if it's a fast-travel to the Penthouse from anywhere. Overload my stuff and move in with a twink of my little locket.
I love your vids so much their so joyous and fun. This might be a push but do you have a list somewhere of all the homes you’ve done videos of that could be shown?
Gosh no sorry, there's literally hundreds and hundreds by now - I have tons of playlists though so at least you can look through any particular style that interests you - and thanks so much for watching!:)
@FebrithDarkstar I haven't gotten to Solitide yet. I still have to do Markarth as well. I'm running a really cool Whiterun mod. It's called Whiterun Valley. It's pretty nice. It adds a new district and would be compatible with that Whiterun Capitol mod. The added districts are on opposite sides. I don't do the Capitol because I don't want wood planks covering my cool Whiterun roads from 202x. It also adds a couple of suburbs outside of the walls. I'm liking it a lot. On top of that, I put in Blubbos trees plus City of Life. I learned about that last mod from one of your videos. Finally I have the Whiterun horse statues scattered about. Some trees had to be disabled. There might be a patch but I haven't seen it. In short, it's the best Whiterun I've seen. I put Blubbos trees, Kato's and Big Heads mods in Riverwood. Again, some stuff had ti be disabled but that was because of a conflict with Leaf Rest. If I had moved Leaf Rest to Inillat (again first seem by me on your TH-cam channel) then there wouldn't have been an issue. I wanted it there though and I don't mind a bit of clean up. Originally I used a patch between those two overhaul plus JK's but it was a pain. Riverwood looked good but I had to use JK's aio and that was an issue with other towns. In the end I settled on my way of getting what I want. Overall, Whiterun Hold is way cooler now. There are a couple of things Big Head did that aren't to my taste. He's got some oversized Deathbells that are bright glowing white. I figured I had a texture issue. It took a half hour to figure out it wasn't broken, just annoying. I'm pretty sure he's the one that put in some fallen logs that are discolored. I'll live with them but I wish they used my back textures instead of his custom stuff. They'd look more natural. Oh well. The mod has benefits so I'll just live with the two picky annoyances. Frame rates were an issue but I deleted a few underlying texture packs. I think they were mostly overwritten. I don't see any difference visually but my frame rate went up 20%. Now it's respectable again. Running around and pushing it dropped me into the 40s. It's mostly around 60 in Whiterun. I've got big plans for Markarth. I'm clueless where I'll go with Solitide. I'll probably also revisit the smaller towns because I only did Cities Of the North on each. I did individual mods for each so I can change one without affecting the others. Oh! Rittenhouse has never looked better on my computer. Mostly it's only texture stuff plus Blubbos trees. I also added two or three exterior add-ons. That city has a much better look and feel now. 3 days of sifting mods and figuring out what looks best to me and how to put it together has been frustrating but that's 1/2 the fun of this game. People like you, showcasing mods, have helped me get a lot more pleasure out of the game. I appreciate it. I still have several aspects to address but the world is almost done. I'm 250 mods in, I'll be at around 300 once these last cities are complete. Then I have game play, combat, and quality of life stuff. I figure I'll be around 5 or 600 before it's said and done. Last comment, Live Another Life isn't working for me. It had in the past but not now. That made me look at other options. I forget it's name but I found one where you start off in Helgen before the dragon attack. He won't attack until after you talk to the inn keeper. At that point the main quest begins and plays out normally. It won't for me. I'll add mods to let me control the pace and make it more challenging. Still, this mod doesn't affect any of that. I'm gearing up for an epic play through. I'm really looking forward to it and you've helped me put some of it together. Again, I appreciate it. Thanks.
Hi Feb, sorry for the off-topic but I was wondering if you've gotten into Fallout London yet? I've been playing it non-stop since it's release and have been having a blast.
I'm sorry but I'm a bit confused. The link took me to the Solitude Penthouse on the nexus, however, the pictures displayed there were nothing like the quaint little cottage that you reviewed. Those pictures were of a dark and dingy stone castle like structure. Could it be that your Solitude beautification mod changed this mod (the one you are reviewing) into this small open and brightly lit cottage like structure?
Absolutely it does, I don't care for that dark solitude stone so I always have the retexture installed - and then I forget to even mention it sometimes and get myself into trouble lol - the difference is so amazing isn't it?!:)
I prefer compact and cozy houses (both in Skyrim and in real life) to huge houses with a lot of unnecessary rooms that you can get lost in, I just don't know what to do with so much space and I'm not good at navigating :) So I like the playerhome you showcased in this video.
I really love it but not being inside solitude is kind of a deal breaker. If you have kids they go out and run up and down the lanes and stuff and this just kills the whole point of it being a solitude house
@FebrithDarkstar yeah as soon as your video showed the key thing I just kinda went " frigging really? " nice mod though I've never been a big fan of the over the top mansions with 8 billion rooms for followers and children and 40 rooms I'll never use. My Xbox can't even handle most of those mods half the time anyway. This one has just enough storage and function with a pretty cool appearance
I love how Inigo is just a property inspection assistant and hes loving it
Hehe yeah he's a wonderful assistant! :D
Just want to give my compliments to you, since I’ve gone down a Skyrim player home mod rabbit hole to find the perfect home for my character. You’re my absolute favorite Skyrim realtor!
Oh thank you so much that means a lot to me!:))
I love how tidy the design is for this one. Well thought out and functional.
Totally agree!:)
This is nice. It's clean and uncluttered. At its best, it's simple. My only wish is that the two kids beds could switch to followers.
If you're on PC, you can use console to click on the bed and type clear ownership. Then followers can sleep in the beds. You can also setscale to 1 to bring them back to normal size if they'll fit.
@@lillindine Thank you very much!
Finally, nice, clean, apartment, standing in the Solitude itself (no dock, no 200km away, or far inside the Solitude, right near the exit which is very nice), and its very well balanced in terms of size😊

Aww thanks so much! So glad you loved it too:)
Here we go again! Can't get anything done with all these fantastic videos you keep posting!
Lol - thanks for watching!:))
I was sold on the idea of this being in "Solitude" but technically in its own worldspace. That's brilliant and I hope to see more houses like that.
Things I like:
The technique of having it be "in" Solitude and exit to Solitude, but not actually taking up Solitude real estate and not needing patches for it to work with any town overhaul. That's actually brilliant and I'd love to see more mod authors take notice.
The enclosed private yard.
The purchasable extras - wish there were more soils, though.
Things I don't like:
The interior layout is weird and awkward and unfortunately a dealbreaker for me.
Having kid beds and no option for fthem to be follower beds instead.
I'm personally not a fan of mixing Dwemer architecture with other styles. Unless it's a whole Dwemer house, I don't want to see Dwemer clutter. But that's just me.
Thank you as always for doing this home tour!
Fair enough! And thanks for watching!:)
It's an interesting idea for a player home mod in a bustling city. The key teleporting you to your front yard in a neighbourhood in Solitude that you can see over the wall and through the gate.
Definitely unique!:)
Very nice...well done with its layout. Cosy yet spacious. Glad Inigo seems good with it😊.
Happy to see a new place in solitude
Me too!:)
I wish I had a walled garden like this IRL! Very lovely indeed ❤
And the house isn't too big, as I prefer tiny homes 🏡
Me too! I'd grow espalier peaches on the south wall!
I love this home! I love the blue color accents too. Thank you for sharing this one, Feb!
You are so welcome!
I love it when mod authors put all the crafting in one area. I'm far too lazy to be running from one end of the house to the other 😅
You and me both!
I love that you come through the door onto the staircase then down past the bedrooms into the heart of the home It confused me a bit when you first came in lol but once I got my bearings I really liked it 😊
Hehe yeah I thought it odd for a minute too but then it grew on me!
Such a quaint little house. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!

I totally agree!
Wonderful house! Loved it! 😊
So glad!
Compact. Cozy. Private. Love it. Great fine. Not sure I would trust the water as it runs through solitude.
Lmao :D
Yeh I got your texture pack for Solitude after you referenced it in another video and I think it looks great, amazing difference.
I noticed the Ivy on the brickwork too. It looks like the normal maps are inverted in some places?
I quite like this one but would prefer a physical entrance to use in Solitude.
Fair enough:)
Fantastic little place.
It really is!
Looks rather nice!
It is!
Locket, brilliant.
I would abuse it to move in, if it's a fast-travel to the Penthouse from anywhere. Overload my stuff and move in with a twink of my little locket.

Very cute!
A baby mill!!!!!! I am so sold 😂😂😂
Lol right?! :))
Just started the video now. Thank you thank you thank you! I wanted to see your review before I installed it. Any patches needed?
None that I can think of!

This looks awesome!😊
That's why I'm sad they put the bedroom in such a non-cozy spot.😐 Ah well.
Hehe it got me a bit confused at first but it grew on me!:)
Hi Feb, sorry for the off-topic but I was wondering if you've gotten into Fallout London yet? I've been playing it non-stop since it's release and have been having a blast.
Totally:)
Solitude is good if you combine the great city of solitude and Epic Cities Solitude
Don't much like Solitude. But, for the price, quite a bargain! As a child in Dallas, TX, we had a coal hole and a coal furnace.
Nice!:) Love the smell of a coal fire:)
🎉
:)
I love Inigo’s armor! What type is it?
It's the armour you get from the mod Chain of Time - I love that mod (and not just because I had a voice part in it lmao!)
I'm sorry but I'm a bit confused. The link took me to the Solitude Penthouse on the nexus, however, the pictures displayed there were nothing like the quaint little cottage that you reviewed.

Me too!:)
and a rope ladder so feb can climb out when she stumbles into the water (Grin)
Ya got me :XD x
What happened to Inigo's voice?
Lol I speeded up that bit of the film :D
I really love it but not being inside solitude is kind of a deal breaker. If you have kids they go out and run up and down the lanes and stuff and this just kills the whole point of it being a solitude house
Hmmm I wonder if they'd play in the garden?
Where the heck is it? I've search the whole city
As you'll have seen from the first couple of minuts of the video, I did the same thing lol
Really !? 😂 I walked around for an extremely long time. Description on mod says " in solitude "
Well it is but you can't get to it from inside Solitude:)
@FebrithDarkstar yeah as soon as your video showed the key thing I just kinda went " frigging really? " nice mod though I've never been a big fan of the over the top mansions with 8 billion rooms for followers and children and 40 rooms I'll never use. My Xbox can't even handle most of those mods half the time anyway. This one has just enough storage and function with a pretty cool appearance
