Could you fit all attunable crafting stations in the Gardener house, Stormhaven?

Since the release of housing I've been farming writ vouchers to build a house with all set crafting stations, and I'm ready to start putting it together.

The gardener house is right by the master writ hand-in, but I'm not convinced I'll be able to fit every station without some clever stacking of stations.

Has anyone found any good ways to squeeze stations on top of each other, perhaps using shelves? Do you think it's realistically possible to get every crafting station in such a small house?

Also, what is a good price to buy attunable crafting station from PC EU guild traders?

Any other tips for setting up a cluttered crafting house?

    In the past I have sold attunable crafting stations between 125k up to 200+, currently they are selling around 145k last time I checked. To buy all stations would cost many millions of gold, so unless you are a major guild leader you may find it easier to use a guild house someone else has already prepared.

    Personally I do my writs then teleport to a house near a wayshrine such as Flaming Nix Deluxe Garret in Mournhold.

    Thanks!

    I've earned all my writ vouchers through my Guilds beautiful crafting hall, but I like having my own long-term project.

    I've accumulated about 15k writ vouchers, so I'm nearly a quarter of the way. From now on I'll keep an eye out for very cheap Attunable stations for sale, so I need to make a vague plan of how to squeeze them into the house. I'm expecting this to take me at least another year, and before I start I want a bit of a plan.

    My very early planning suggests i may just about squeeze all stations in, as long as I use the garden too, which means an internal loading screen...

    Currently I'm liking the daedric platform as a shelf to place one station above the other, but it will require well placed ramps to let characters interact with the raised stations, and ramps block the narrow walkways

    Gardner is far too small for all the crafting stations. If you want a gold purchasable home, I'm considering using Serenity Falls (not Dawnshadow...) for a crafting hall, Ebonheart would also work. But a larger home (a crowns only one) would be better, with more open space. Many guilds use Grand Topal or Coldharbour because of the open space.

    You can use Gardner if you use the courtyard and build an upper level. My guild has done that but it's tight. I wouldn't recommend it as you will run out of room in the future. Grand Topal is nice cause you can build over the water and keep the island part for guild events. Psijic villa and Coldharbour are spacious for tables

    Thank you so much! This is exactly the answer I wanted. If you have any other information about how they squeezed or organised I'd love to learn.

    Are they stacking their attainable stations so one sits above another? How does it feel to get around?

    I love the location of the gardener house for it's writ hand ins - and I'm trying to make it work, but you are probably right, I need to move.
