How far can you build off the platform in Frostvault chasm home?

I would like to know should it return as unless we get a better Dwemer home in blackreach or something later this year or next....

For directional purposes assuming when you enter the home staring at platform left is left of platform, right is off the right side...

How far can you build in either direction before you hit killzone/invisible wall?
How high above platform
How far down toward the electric effect...?

I think the easiest measure might be the biggest generic wooden plank platforms most generic furnishing vendors sell...
Say the thinner width vs length side as the measurement?


I hope that paragraph makes sense and someone can help I just wanna know if a 5500 fully furnished house will give me the extra off platform space to build additional structure for more room ^_^

Screenshots also appreciated if anyone can put those in hopefully this will help me and others ^_^

    When you preview a home, you can use ranged light attacks to find invisible walls. If the projectile disappears earlier than its natural max range (and doesn't do its "poof" explosion that some staves have), there's a wall. So this won't tell you the full depth, but will tell you if it'll go ~28m or so. I know it's not a full answer to your question, but the house should be previewable if you find its overland map location. GL

    If you use PC you can use the magic carpet addon, which will allow you to fly around on your carpet and you will know when you hit the invisible walls.

    It is possible to build beyond the invisible wall, but your character won't be able to move past the wall.

    Thank you both I did see a clip on YouTube after some digging where they "magic carpeted" a wood platform...

    It was very revealing though some areas seemed less covered immediately around the platform/initial staircase area.

    Still thank you
