Huge chair and table somewhere off lot, can't remove or delete

I don't know how this happened, just that it appeared one day while I was working on a build in Oasis Springs. A huge, huge chair has appeared somewhere off the lot, and I can't access it in order to select it and delete it in build mode, nor can I shift+click on it to destroy object in live mode. 

I did not have TOOL installed when this happened, but I have since installed TOOL and tried to use it to remove the chair. It didn't work, as I could not select the item even using TOOL, or build a "box" around it to delete it. Additionally, when I went into another lot further down the road, I noticed that there is actually a table AND a chair. For some reason, the table doesn't show up unless I'm on that particular lot (I don't remember what the lot is originally called, but it's the one where the museum is supposed to be in Oasis Springs.) in build mode, but it does show up if I'm playing in live mode and I zoom out. 

I have tried placing the lot I was building when this issue showed up on another world, and while the chair didn't show up in build mode, it did made the world map (Brindleton Bay) glitch when I went to the manage worlds screen. 

I have tried the cheat where you list the objects (specifically, tables and chairs) on the lot, and neither the chair nor the table show up on the list. Additionally, the chair was originally a CC chair, and I deleted it, and when I went back into the lot, it had been replaced with the base game chair (seen in the picture). 

This is in my main save and I have a lot of households / progress in Oasis Springs in particular, so I do not want to have to start a new save to get a new Oasis Springs, but I have no idea what else to do at this point. It was funny at first but now it's just distracting and irritating. 

Can anyone help at all?

    Hi marshmilo7​ 

    did you test multiple lots with the object cheat ? Maybe it's attached to another lot.

    Another option is potentially searching with S4Studio. Are you familiar with the tool ?

    If not, and you can't find the table on any lot in Oasis Spring, please do feel free to send me your save game via DM. Upload it to GoogleDrive/OneDrive/WeTransfer/SwissTransfer or Dropbox and DM me the link.

    marshmilo7​ In your case, you can spend hours searching for the grab point of the enlarged items and not find them.  Those points are on or close to the lot somewhere but are probably invisible and finding them will be more luck than anything.  But there is another way, but it will require you to redo potentially a lot of work once the objects are gone.  Since you say that this happened on a build in progress, the way to go about fixing it is to move a sim onto the lot.  Then move them out, keeping the furniture.  That puts all the household objects in the household inventory, including the 2 enlarged items.  After that, it's just a matter of refurnishing the lot.

    If that doesn't work, the items may be on another lot nearby.

    Hope this helps.
