@Dragofer@Amadeus is there a solution for this? could we not use a ragdoll instead..?

Just completed it ! Felt daunting at first but it's actually pretty doable in normal mode if you're a bit focused.

 

No issues with the wife being conscious thankfully. Can't y'all try some console command to knock her out?

I just finished this awesome mission and might be the luckiest person to have played it in a way that may have lessened my enjoyment of it. Here's some of the incredibly fortuitous things to have happened to me in my 90 min playtime:

- not even 10 mins into the mission I bump into the main antagonist, probably the 3rd NPC I encounter including Andreus. One quick arrow to the head and he's down.

- exploring the manor and I find the painting room, chased by 3 guards onto a balcony who all go down with a single, well aimed gas arrow. Great, now i have the gallery all to myself.

- finding the secret door to the Painter's Wife was again, completely random and by chance.

- aimlessly wander the rooftops looking for other stuff to steal, and whaddaya know, I stumble into the assassin's home. A fact I only knew upon clubbing her and getting a mission update, I initally thought she was just another random NPC.

It's like... I have spent longer on some 20mb 3-room missions than I have on this one. As I always do upon completing a mission, I had a cheeky fly about using NOCLIP to see what areas I missed, and yeah, I pretty much missed most of this one, including the clearly enormous sewer section. Other humorous quirks was the Painter's Wife unconscious body talking to herself on the journey back.
