﻿**Description**﻿  
  
This mod overhauls Honeyside, the default player home located in Riften. This overhaul aims to create a warmer home for the Dragonborn and its family, adding an entire floor and completely reworking the initial floor-plan. The mod makes almost entirely use of Skyrim assets with a few custom-made meshes to fit the needs of the house. it should be compatible with most HD re-meshes and re-textures out there as long as they stay close to the original shapes they are replacing. I am using a few myself and have not come across any problems so far.

**Features**  
**Kitchen / Dining Room:**  
  
The entire first floor has been repurposed as a Kitchen equipped with a baking oven and a bar right next to the dining area. The whole family will be able to enjoy a nice diner next to the fireplace.

**First Basement :**  
  
* Master's Bedroom

  
Warm and comfy with its fireplace and personal bathroom, this is the largest room in the house. The perfect place for you to kick off your boots and put your feet up after slaying undead dragon or whatever it is that you do.

* Children's Bedroom

  
Honeyside really is the best place to raise children, while inside they will enjoy a nice room equipped with a study and a private bathroom, the orphanage on the other side of town will provide them with plenty of company to play around with!

* Trophy Room (bought with Alchemy Lab)

  
Right next to yet another fireplace, this drawing room will be the pride of the Dragonborn, allowing you to display weapons and armors acquired during your many travels.

* Alchemy Lab

  
The old empty well in the garden was repurposed as a underground mushroom farm, giving the Dragonborn plenty of ingredients to try out new potions and poisons for the whole family! **![](https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/1704/images/70968/70968-1657297895-1411011627.jpeg)   
  
Second Basement :**  
  
* Huskarl's Bedroom (enabled when provided with a Huskarl)

  
Your Huskarl is here to protect your home from anyone foolish enough to try and rob you, not having to sleep on a nasty cot in a cupboard under the stairs might convince her not to do the robbing herself...

* Blacksmith (bought with the Enchanting Lab)

  
Balimund got real tired of people commandeering his forge so we decided to provide you with your own. We even gave you a smelter so you don't have to hike to Shor's Stone every time you want to make an ingot.

* Enchanting Lab

  
State of the art and equipped with an enchanting table as well as a staff enchanter, this lab will be the envy of every mage in Skyrim (mainly because no one seems to be able to enchant a staff). Do not hesitate to display your creations on the many walls of this repurposed well.

* Underground Dock (bought with the Porch)

  
For those sneaky boys wishing to make a silent exit from the city, an underground dock will allow you to swim your way out of Riften straight into Lake Honrich while staying undetected. The dock is even furnished with a small boat that can be used to row downstream to Ivarstead.

**Outdoors :**  
  
* Porch

  
Overlooking the water and providing the owner with an amazing view of the lake, you will love to spend time on this porch, tending to your flowers and eating while being bathed in sunlight. And since the place is called Honeyside, we added in a ton of bees to keep you company!

* Garden

  
Nestled between the house and the city walls, this small garden will allow you to grow vegetables and get a steady supply of eggs with the two chickens living there. The well is empty, so do not try get any water from it.

﻿**Acquisition**  
The house can be acquired by helping the citizens of Riften on 3 side quests and by completing the **Supply and Demand** quest line initiated by Wujeeta at the Riften Fishery.  
  
**Installation**  
- Use your favorite mod manager  
- **Or** drop the content of the archive into your "Skyrim Special Edition\Data" folder  
  
**Add-ons :**  
  
- A patch for [Enhanced Light and FX](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/2424) (ELFX) is included in the Optional Files, this will mainly add smoke effects on different light sources. While using ELFX it is imperative that you disable "Honeyside ELFX" when installing the mod and that you load my mod after ELFX, otherwise you will encounter floating or misplaced candles.  
- A patch for [Snazzy Furniture and Clutter Overhaul](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/2414) (SFCO) is included in the Optional Files, this patch will add a few paintings on the walls.  
  
Both patches are completely optional, they should merely add character to the house if you are already using these mods.  
  
- If you wish to replace your mannequins with the ones in the screenshot, you can get one of my other mods [here](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/66300).  
  
**Disclaimer**  
It is highly advisable to run this mod on a new play-through or before visiting Honeyside, otherwise you will have to pick up a lot of mess from the floor, activators such as bookshelves and weapon rack   
  
In the original house, the children's bedroom and the enchanting lab were swappable and buying one would disable the other, I made sure both could be active at the same time and tested the whole process with success in a new play-through. Although the whole House Purchase / Decoration system created by Bethesda is a real mess, so I tried to be as less invasive as possible to the original quest object (which include the house system and is interlaced with the adoption system). Make sure then that no other mod is overwriting the changes made by this one before reporting a bug.  
  
Obviously, this mod will conflict with other mods that would change the honeyside interior cell / porch and garden in any significant way.
