Live in Horten
In Horten you live a stone’s throw away from just about everything and a queue is a flight of imagination.
Do you like living close to others or feel you need a bit more space around you? Is a detached house top of your wish list, or does an apartment suit you a bit better perhaps? Is your dream a smallholding where you can grow your own vegetables or is life downtown more you?
Whatever you’re looking for, you can find it in Horten.

A city in development
Indre havneby
Step-by-step development over the coming years with both residential and commercial projects. With the first phase complete, people have already moved in. Enjoy the coastal path and the generous, green recreational areas along the shore.
Rørestrand Park
Close to the sea, beaches and woods. Sun, fresh sea air and beautiful recreational areas in one of Horten’s most attractive residential areas.
200 metres to the fjord with an attractive marina and beach. The coastal path and cycle paths immediately alongside.
Only a few minutes from the centre of Horten.
Strandhagen at Steinsnes
A new, modern, residential estate in one of the town’s best locations. The first phase consists 22 apartments of various designs and five family-friendly terraced houses in beautiful surroundings.
A floating community
What about living in a floating house, for example? In just a few years, this will be possible in Horten – for the first time in Norway.
Is there something in the water?
In Horten we’re an enterprising bunch. Maybe there’s something in the water because we’re talking top rank entrepreneurial spirit. You can see it in the arts and culture front where our many superstars range from Edvard Munch to Girl in Red.
When it comes to technology, we’re the world leaders in a number of areas and we’re Norway’s’ technology hotspot No.1. There’s loads of evidence to show how Horten is full of people paving the way in their field and we’re equally proud of every one of them.
Horten is a safe place to grow up
We have space for all our kids at preschool and many of our schools and preschools are brand new. Our absolute pride is Horten secondary school – Norway’s first plus-energy school.
What’s more, there’s a whole load of leisure-time activities to revel in: lovely beaches, ski-trails, salt and freshwater activities, forests and mountains.
Three-storey home office with garage and sunny garden with apple-trees.
Horten has lots of exciting workplaces, but we also have access to an enormous work market that stretches from Oslo and Drammen in the north to Larvik and Grenland in the south, Kongsberg in the west and Moss in the east. It’s good to know you can tick off the columns for both home office and commuter facilities.
