Spence's Arklay mansion is possibly the coolest location in the RE universe, we've all spent a lot of time running through it's halls. Personally, I've fallen in love with the mansion and wouldn't mind living there. The awesome architecture, the grounds, the surrounding forest and a HUGE basement level- It's just awesome. Although, I would make some changes- namely...
*Clean up the grounds and get the pool in functioning order. Possibly extend a deck from the pool into the Arklay Forest (grill PARTY!)
*Gut all that "underground lab" crap and turn it into living space. I would turn the shark tank room into a mock sea cave for recreational diving, and expect a waterfall. I would devote a lot of the space to a fully equipped gym, a room with pool, poker table, etc with movie screen and seating. And probably a lot of other stuff, due to the large amount of space. (*hint-hint* Bowling Alley)
*Probably remove the secret door in the art gallery, and expand it to house more art.
*Fix up the cabin, make it into some sort of a workshop/storage shed.
*I would probably keep the library as-is, I love a good library. I'd probably update it a tad, though.
*I'd probably turn the kitchen into a basement storage and put a modern kitchen into the newly renovated lab space.
*Oh, and remove all the Zombies, BOWs and other what nots, and fix up all the shit they broke.
So, if you could move into the Spencer mansion (and magically had unlimited, Umbrella-esque cash streams) what would you do to it? Alternatively, if you didn't like the Mansion, what other locale in the RE universe would you like to hang your hat? A close second for me would be the Salazar Castle. A locale I wouldn't live in would probably be Raccoon City (despite the fact that the Arklay mansion is near it), as it looks boring without a Biohazard in progress.
