    The more I am working on it, the more headache I become. I am going trough hundreds of pictures and floorplans, but noone of them makes sense. The only thing that's obvious, it's the foyer with the staircase. Every other room in the house does not fit! Either because there are some steps where they are not supposed to be, leading to Norman Bates elevated bedroom which is actually NOT elevated, or because the rooms are much bigger then the house allows. Very confusing. The insides shootings of the house are definitively fantasy rooms. No way to have them fit the house. I guess I have to use my phantasy and adapt as good as I can.

    Maybe the house was actually an old, parked TARDIS, and they didn't know it.  :D   Larger on the inside, with each room potentially being a seperate entity in it's own pocket-dimension, such that the doorway could lead ANYwhere else inside the place.

    Just found this thread on a fluke! Thanks so much for the freebie! It looks amazing! Just downloaded it but don’t have time to render right now but will definitely post when I do!

     It's interior walls are thin slats of wood that were plastered over

    It's called "Lath & Plaster". I horror movies you often see the lath with the plaster fallen off, especially when "It Lives in the Walls!"

    I helped re-plaster my brother's house with 'lath & plaster' before they sold it and moved. I had forgotten the technical name of it, thanks. 

    Actually, I just remembered, very interesting, in a nerdy sort of way,  this house, Collective3D Neighborhood XPack 1, is just like my brother's & his wife's old house I helped replaster the lath & plastic walls that had crumbled in a couple places. It wasn't easy for a non-carpenter type like myself to make look decent. 

    Such houses and others style houses came in pre-cut kits assembled by the buyers before 1960s I think from mail order catalogues like Sears. Collective3D knows all about such houses. This link to one of his models like my brother's house is below.
