122 prims *** no MOD / yes COPY / no TRANS

Pictures following—this quaint stone cottage is the perfect centerpiece for many types of role play and nestles well amongst forests and hills and other homes with its impressive shapes and textures. With architecture that fuses Medieval and Gothic Revival styles it wows the senses in tantalizing ways.

Enjoy quiet evenings relaxing and chatting with friends. Or use the confining upper floor for endless role play situations.

Feast your eyes on the skillfully sculpted and textured stones of the exterior walls, and arches, and cornerstone columns.

In this picture the house controller can be seen glowing and orange to the right side of the entrance. The front gate and double sliding front doors are both individually lockable from the controller menu. With this menu operated controller you can do the following:

  • Open and close the front gate and front doors separately
  • Lock or unlock the front doors and front gate separately
  • Choose between four different textures for the windows separately for upstairs and downstairs
  • Choose opacity for the upstairs and downstairs windows separately
  • Choose window opacities ranging from 5% to 100%
  • Specify a special 'privacy mode' for the windows separately for upstairs/downstairs
  • Privacy mode features 35% opacity from the inside and yet 100% opacity from the outside so people can't see in

Drink in the quality of this finely built structure as you take note of its true divided light arch shaped windows.

At only 4 prims each, these windows, with their custom textured arches and sills, with their expertly sculpted wooden mullions, and with their menu changeable glass textures to fit many periods of history are just one of the many highlights of this gem of a cottage.

Give yourself the experience of owning a building that bleeds with creativity. This simple stone cottage can inspire otherworldly, dreamlike outer realms. Throughout history cottages such as this have left their nonhuman, but none the less powerful influences on humanity.


Looking angelic, the cottage is pictured here with some of the Redwood and fantasy trees and ferns from our "Redwood Forest Fantasy" packages. Available at the SL Marketplace online.

Here we see a view of one of the four window texture choices as well as the carefully crafted and sculpted exterior stonework.



Those that appreciate quality sounds in second life will enjoy the sound effects made especially for these items. The front slider doors and stairs use a Raven Tree professionally edited sound that includes an actual 'attack' when the doors close. The front gate has its own custom open and close sounds. These sounds are all professionally edited and layered with stereo quality and feature unique 'attack thumps' and 'sweeteners' that sync with the scripted movement of the gate and doors and interior stairs.


Looking through the lockable front gate past the open, yet lockable front doors and out through the rear window into the forest beyond. The dormer windows look out from the sculpted peaked roof atop the two story cottage.



Windows can be set to 'clear' as well as a range of opacities from 5% up to 100% and feature a menu operated 'privacy mode' that lets you see out while other can't see in.


All Raven Tree Creations products are carefully handcrafted and/or sculpted and are sure to add style and comfort to your Second Life.

Thank you for your interest. And please, feel free to IM with any questions. ~ Ginny Enzo
