House Hunters International Season 25 Episode 124 Happy are the Danes in Charlottenlund, Denmark
- June 15, 2012
In this episode of House Hunters International, we follow Americans Alex and Sarah as they search for their dream home in Charlottenlund, Denmark. The couple has always dreamed of living in Europe, and after several visits to various Scandinavian countries, they have decided to settle down in Denmark. Alex, who works in the technology industry, and Sarah, who is an artist, are excited to immerse themselves in the Danish culture and way of life.
Charlottenlund is a coastal town located just north of Copenhagen, known for its beautiful beaches and picturesque neighborhoods. The couple is looking for a spacious and modern home with Scandinavian design elements, as well as access to nature and cultural activities.
Their real estate agent, Sofie, first takes them to a charming apartment with a classic Nordic style. The apartment has big windows that let in plenty of natural light, and a spacious living area perfect for entertaining guests. However, the lack of a yard and outdoor space puts this apartment lower on their list.
Next, Sofie takes them to a cozy cottage in the heart of Charlottenlund. The cottage has a beautiful garden filled with apple trees and plenty of room for Sarah to paint outside. The interior is small, but it has all the amenities they need, including a cozy fireplace and a modern kitchen. However, the cottage is located on a busy street, which Alex and Sarah worry will be noisy.
Finally, Sofie takes the couple to a spacious and modern house located in a quiet and green neighborhood. The house has a large yard with plenty of room for their dog to run around, as well as a greenhouse for Sarah's plants. The interior is bright and airy with floor-to-ceiling windows and a minimalist Scandinavian design. The house also boasts a state-of-the-art home automation system, a must-have for Alex. The only downside for the couple is that the commute to Alex's workplace downtown could be longer than they would like.
As they weigh their options, Alex and Sarah learn more about the Danish lifestyle and culture from locals they meet. They attend a traditional Danish birthday party where guests sing happy birthday in Danish and enjoy a classic Danish birthday cake. They also visit some of the local cultural attractions, like the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, and learn about the history and mythology of the Danish people.
After much consideration, Alex and Sarah make their final decision and choose their dream home in Charlottenlund. The house boasts all the modern amenities they need, a spacious yard, and a quiet neighborhood. They look forward to incorporating Danish traditions into their daily lives and embracing the Danish lifestyle. Episode 124 of season 25 of House Hunters International is a heartwarming and informative look at the lives of Americans in Scandinavia.
