Egne Hjem is a Oslo T-bane station on the Kolsås Line located in Bærum, Norway. The station is situated between Ringstabekk and Bekkestua, 10.8 km from Stortinget.

The station was opened on November 3 1924. It is currently the least busy station on this subway line and is located only 300 m from Ringstabekk and 450 m from Bekkestua. Because of this, after the line closed in 2006 the station will not be reopened, to increase the overall speed of the trains.

Subway operations have been suspened on this line pending upgrades. Since December 2, 2007 tram operations (line 13) have returned on this line from Jar to Bekkestua. Operations beyond Jar use SL95 trams as there is no turnback loop at Bekkestua.
