Solstheim Villa - Update History (February 14, 2026)
There are a lot of updates, so I wrote an article about it.
Navmesh Fixes
Improved Navmesh around the exterior of the house for better NPC movement.
Basement Entrance Relocation
The door to the "Solstheim Villa Basement" has been moved. Previously, it was a square door located immediately to the right of the terrace-side entrance. It has now been relocated along the slope beneath the terrace.
Safety Measure: Added a handrail to the cliffside path leading to the new basement entrance to prevent accidental falls.
Garden Improvements
Cleared some of the hexagonal basalt rocks in the garden and added new benches and flowers to create a more relaxing space.
Improved Access to Smithing Area
Partially removed hexagonal rocks around the forge. This significantly improves pathfinding, allowing NPCs to access the smithing area more smoothly.
Rebalanced Skill XP
Reduced the Magic XP gained from daily activities (washing hands, brushing teeth, and bathing). The previous values were too high; they have been lowered to ensure more natural level progression.
Return from Coldcinder Cave
Added a "Return to Solstheim Villa" AI package for housemates. If they wander into Coldcinder Cave, they will now correctly head back home.
New Guard Toggle Switch
Added a lever to enable/disable guards.
Location: Inside the house, to the right of the terrace-side entrance (dining room side).
Indicator: When guards are active, miniature statues of a Dwarven Spider and Dwarven Sphere will appear near the lever.
Partial Furniture Style Toggle
Added a button on the wall near the dining room entrance to switch between Noble and Dunmer furniture styles. This affects all beds and some chairs/tables.
NOTE: To avoid NPCs getting stuck in sitting or sleeping animations, please ensure no one is using the furniture before toggling.
Compatible with furniture replacer mods; the models will change according to your installed replacers.
This is the Noble bed model (using the vanilla model).
This is the Dunmer bed model (using the vanilla model).
Note on Master Bedroom Bed
When the master bed is set to the Dunmer style, the additional decorations are disabled to ensure compatibility with replacers. The image above shows the bed in its Noble style.
Below are images of the Replacer MOD in use and information about the MOD used.

Xbox users have a wealth of options on Bethesda.net, with various ported versions to choose from.
