Augustenborg is a historical rural property in the southern part of the island of Jeløya by Moss in Norway. With roots stretching back to the Middle Ages and a history that can be traced back to the 17th century, the property has a rich cultural heritage.
Today, Augustenborg serves as a private home and recently underwent careful renovation. The redesigned interior has a warm expression with charming details in quality materials, including Dinesen Oak floors that bring a sense of timeless elegance to the home.

With its beautiful natural setting, sweeping view of open landscapes and proximity to the coast, the property has a characteristic atmosphere of calm and authenticity. The history of the farm can be traced back several centuries, when it functioned as a sailors’ inn. The current owners have renovated the place with respect for history, preserving its original soul.
A key element in the interior renovation is the use of Dinesen Oak Classic floors throughout. The narrow planks in varying lengths create a subtle yet impressive dynamic that supports the aesthetic of the interiors. The fireplace room has a Dinesen floor laid in an elegant herringbone pattern that adds character and charm.
Augustenborg is a tribute to traditional crafts and contemporary aesthetic, with history remaining alive and vibrant in every detail.
