Fridlevs Vænge 34

Welcome to Fridlevs Vænge 34.

The Fridlev cohousing community is in Hvalsø, a lovely town bordering Nationalpark Skjoldungernes land. Here you will also find the Bidstrup forests, part of Skovhøjlandet, Zealand’s second-largest forest area. From the station it is only 32 minutes by train to Copenhagen. The town has 4 supermarkets, a cinema, a library, a good school, good childcare and a thriving community of clubs and associations. The house enjoys a lovely location with views over fields, forest and meadow.

The house has 93 well-planned m², comprising a small entrance hall, kitchen, spacious living room with a vaulted ceiling, 3 large, roomy rooms and a bathroom with a skylight. There is lovely natural light, and from the living room a door opens onto a large timber terrace and your own private garden, which wraps all the way around the house. Here you can enjoy both sunrises and sunsets.

Fridlev is a budding cohousing community of 42 families, a mixed group of families with children, single people and seniors who moved in in 2023. There is a good atmosphere and a lovely sense of community. Social life is flourishing, and there are lots of kind and welcoming fellow residents. There is a summer party, a harvest festival and other seasonal celebrations, work days, a Friday bar, working groups with plenty of opportunity to have your say, a swap shop, a party committee, winter bathing in Avnsø, a beer-brewing guild and soon-to-come chicken and rabbit guilds.

There are lots of activities, e.g. yoga, wine tasting, pancake making, meditation and plant dyeing. There is room for initiative and ideas, and the opportunity to put them into practice. There are currently 45 children living here, which creates a lively, child-friendly atmosphere. In the hillside gardens there is plenty of room to grow vegetables – both for the community and in your own kitchen garden.

Fridlev has its own lake and a piece of land around it that the residents manage themselves. In addition, there is the right to use a meadow where sheep are currently grazing. Fridlev consists of 3 clusters, and the architecture is inspired by the Norwegian tún, with timber houses in different colours and sizes. The houses are built as low-energy homes. There are 3 common houses with kitchens, guest rooms, a laundry, a swap shop, a playroom and a billiard table. There is a large barn with an orangery, a multi-purpose room, workshops and a music room. 4 charging points are coming to Fridlev this year. There is also a group working to set up a car-sharing scheme.
