Pretty straightforward question. Of all the Oblivion houses available to me, which is going to give me the shortest time from when I fast travel to when I have at least 3 safe chests?

Right now I'm using the Imperial City because it's cheap and relatively close to a fast travel location (The Waterfront). But it takes around 20 or so seconds to get there. And everyone knows that 20 seconds is forever when there's one out there with 5!

I always used Rosethorn hall, it is a slightly shorter walk and huge advantage against the waterfront house is that you don't need to go to another area for the shops (the less loading screens the merrier :)). This advantage counts for all houses outside the imperial city. However, it is the most expensive house to buy (25,000 gold).

I think, the houses with the shortest walk distances are the Bruma house and Arborwatch (Chorrol). Easiest to buy is the Bruma house.

Worst choise is probably the Leyawiin house, or Benirus Manor.

What about the chest distances in rosethorn? Are there 3 safe chests immediately at the door I can use? Coming up with 25k isn't a big deal, really. Just want the convenience. – corsiKa Apr 7 '12 at 12:48
Theres one chest, a desk, a barrel and some display cases and cupboards on the ground floor. I always used the basement cause it has a lot of chests crammed into a half circle, but that's an extra (quick) load. – Mark Tielemans Apr 8 '12 at 15:53
