Baltic Greenhouse Egsmark Strand, Central Denmark Region

Property Description

Only fifty kilometres from the bustling city of Aarhus, homes like this one in tiny villages and coastal settlements pepper the Jutland peninsula. While life here feels like a world away from the metropolis, that doesn’t mean that it’s as rustic and rural as you might expect. About a twenty-minute drive from the wild seascapes of Boeslum, this house is sure to surprise you with its luxury offerings.

Modern, stylish, and architecturally intriguing, this eco-friendly lodge is ready for the 21st century. Solar panels and geothermal heating systems mean that you don’t need to feel guilty when you fire up the Jacuzzi or sauna. And after pampering yourself in the facilities, you can explore the interiors in full relaxation mode.

We love the use of glass panels and sloped ceilings, creating bright and airy spaces that feel at one with the green scenes of nature just outside. There’s a wood-burning stove to keep you cosy during chilly Danish winters, but a greenhouse-like, almost tropical feel to the living space when summer months roll in. And of course, it wouldn't be complete without a barbecue on the patio – grill some fresh local fish to serve alongside smørrebrød on the alfresco dining table.
