Loved Vikings? Adored The Bridge (and not just for its covetable knitwear)? Currently lusting after a weekend away in Copenhagen? We might just have the home for you. Readers, meet &#8216;Christiania&#8217; – Saffron Walden&#8217;s authentic nod to Norwegian architecture. 



Built in 1963 by an ambitious Norwegian architect, this Scandinavian-inspired, five-bedroom gem occupies an undulating south-westerly plot in the charming village of Arkesden and is surrounded by beautifully landscaped private gardens. Yes, there&#8217;s original features (think internal timber cladding, Norwegian numbered doors and ironmongery, plus expansive timber-framed picture windows), but it&#8217;s the mid-centry-modern aesthetic with a Scandi spin we&#8217;re hooked on. And it&#8217;s not just us: Christiania comes with her own style cred, having featured in Ideal Home and House &amp; Garden during her 70s heyday.

Great design doesn&#8217;t come at the cost of connections into London, either: Audley End train station is a ten-minute drive away and London Liverpool Street can be reached in just 55 minutes.



Not planning on heading into the Big Smoke for a while? Fear not: the village offers up a local pub, active village hall and popular children’s playground, while neighbouring Clavering and Newport deliver their own smattering of boutiques, pubs, pharmacies, restaurants, bakeries – plus that all important spa.

For something more historic, head into the vibrant market town of Saffron Walden. Just six miles away, it&#8217;s home to an award-winning concert hall plus the stunning Audley End House and Gardens, which hosts regular events and walks throughout the year.



However, if it&#8217;s peace and quiet you&#8217;re after, Christiania delivers the good life with bells on. Approached via a quiet country lane, the house is set back from the road in a private and secluded spot, nestled into gardens at the foot of a long, gated driveway, with two double garages and turning circle (hello, future house-party guests).

Offering up 2,170 sq ft of inside space, living areas revolve around a spectacular drawing room, where tall vaulted ceilings create a sense of space and four large picture windows frame views across the gardens. Come winter, you&#8217;ll no doubt be firing up the characterful Scandinavian chimney breast and snuggling into faux-fur throws on the sofa (while bingeing Bordertown, natch).



But careful interior planning has created a seamless flow throughout the house and while the bright reception hall forms a bridge to the opposite wing of the upper ground floor, Christiania&#8217;s four generously proportioned double bedrooms, each with bespoke cabinetry and verdant views across the gardens, are replete with original fixtures and fittings.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="1024" height="681" src="https://essex.muddystilettos.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/01/Modern-House-gardens-1024x681.jpg" alt="Essex house" class="wp-image-2225" srcset="https://dev.muddystilettos.co.uk/essex/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/01/Modern-House-gardens-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https://dev.muddystilettos.co.uk/essex/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/01/Modern-House-gardens-300x199.jpg 300w, https://dev.muddystilettos.co.uk/essex/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/01/Modern-House-gardens-768x511.jpg 768w, https://dev.muddystilettos.co.uk/essex/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/01/Modern-House-gardens-790x525.jpg 790w, https://dev.muddystilettos.co.uk/essex/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2021/01/Modern-House-gardens.jpg 1128w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



Meanwhile, outside, landscaped gardens wrap the wooden deck, with large swathes of immaculately kept lawns, deep herbaceous borders and a selection of native trees standing alongside Scandinavian spruce and firs (obviously).



So, how much does it all cost? Well, this spacious Scandinavian dream home could be yours for £985,000 – which is a fair few Copenhagen hols and plush Nordic knits, we&#8217;d admit. But with weekend hops grounded for the foreseeable, it might just be your best option. See <a href="https://www.themodernhouse.com/sales-list/christiania/">themodernhouse.com</a> for more details.
