Description
Discover this fine apartment situated in an excellent location within a desirable neighborhood. Located in the green and spacious district of Mariahoeve, this complete two room apartment offers a comfortable living environment.

For daily groceries, Winkelcentrum Mariahoeve is within walking distance. Additionally, you can reach the lively Theresiastraat or The Mall of the Netherlands in Leidschendam in a very short time.
The location is exceptionally favorable regarding accessibility. The property is situated near Den Haag Mariahoeve train station, various tram and bus connections, and the main highways A4, A12, and N14. This ensures that the center of The Hague, the beach of Scheveningen, and surrounding cities are easily reachable. Furthermore, the nearby parks, green belts, and recreational areas such as Marlot, Clingendael, and the Haagse Bos offer ample opportunities for walking, sports, and relaxation.
The layout is designed efficiently. At the rear of the complex, there is a closed parking area where you can park your car as a resident. On the street, there are also sufficient free parking options for a second car or for visitors. Through the well maintained and closed central entrance, you reach the home on the second floor via the stairs or the lift.
Upon entering, you arrive in the hall which provides access to all rooms. Immediately on the right is a spacious bedroom where you can easily fit a large bed and enough wardrobe space. At the end of the hall, you find the bright living room with an open kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with various built in appliances, including a Bosch ceramic hob, a Whirlpool dishwasher, and a fridge freezer combination.
From the living room, you step directly onto the sunny balcony facing southeast. Here you can enjoy many hours of sunshine and a pleasant green view. Thanks to the large window sections, a lot of natural daylight enters, creating a fine and spatial atmosphere. Sleek laminate floors and Sunway pleated blinds provide a modern yet warm feel.
In the hall, you will find the intercom and several practical built in and storage cupboards. In one of these cupboards, the connection for the washing machine is also present. Furthermore, you have access to a separate toilet and a neat shower room with a sink and a towel radiator.
The technical specifications indicate a construction year of 1960. The property has two rooms, one of which is a bedroom. The usable living area is approximately 56 square meters measured according to the NVM Measurement Instruction. The energy label is D. The building is equipped with a lift. The central heating boiler is an Intergas model, owned by the property, noted as being from 2026 which suggests a very recent installation date. The property features a sunny balcony with a view of greenery and a quiet 30 km per hour zone street.
The apartment is situated on leasehold ground. Parking is available on the enclosed terrain. There is also a separate lockable storage room in the basement. The Homeowners Association is active, and the monthly contribution is 175 euros. The roof is flat and the building is accessible for the elderly.
The external storage space measures 6 square meters and the building bound outdoor space is 4 square meters. The volume of the apartment is 186 cubic meters. The property is a gallery flat type. There is one bathroom and one separate toilet. Bathroom facilities include a shower and a sink. The apartment occupies one living layer. Regarding energy, the property has partial double glazing. Heating and hot water are provided by the CV ketel.
The cadastral data indicates the municipality of s Gravenhage, section AS, number 1607. The ownership situation is municipal ownership burdened with leasehold. The location is characterized by a quiet road, in a residential area, and with a free view. A balcony is present. The VvE checklist confirms registration with the Chamber of Commerce, an annual meeting, periodic contribution, presence of a reserve fund, a maintenance plan, and building insurance.
The sale conditions state that delivery is in consultation, with a preference for September. The choice of notary is in consultation. The NVM purchase agreement model 2023 applies. An age and materials clause is applicable. The seller's sales conditions and privacy statement also apply.
This apartment represents a practical home in a convenient location. The combination of the quiet green surroundings with the quick access to urban amenities makes it a suitable choice for various residents. The presence of a lift and the ground floor access to the parking adds to the convenience. The interior finish with laminate floors and modern window coverings ensures a move in ready experience. The balcony on the southeast side allows for enjoying outdoor moments throughout the day. The active VvE and the financial reserve contribute to the proper maintenance of the building. The inclusion of a storage box in the basement provides extra space for belongings not needed daily in the apartment.
The direct proximity to Winkelcentrum Mariahoeve means that daily necessities are never far away. This shopping center caters to a wide range of needs, from fresh produce at the supermarket to other retail services. The presence of schools and sports facilities in the vicinity further enhances the convenience for families or active individuals. The option to quickly reach The Mall of the Netherlands adds a layer of luxury for shopping enthusiasts, offering a wide range of high end brands and dining options just a short distance away.
The connectivity provided by the nearby highways A4, A12, and N14 is a major logistical advantage. The A4 connects Amsterdam to The Hague and further south towards Delft and Rotterdam, making it a vital artery for the region. The A12 provides a direct route to Utrecht and the German border, while the N14 connects to the northern parts of the agglomeration. This strategic location reduces travel times significantly for those who travel by car for work or leisure. For those preferring public transport, the bus and tram connections offer a reliable alternative to the train station, ensuring that the entire region is accessible regardless of the mode of transport chosen.
The recreational value of the location is underscored by the nearby estates and parks. Clingendael and Marlot are known for their scenic beauty, historic estates, and walking trails that offer a serene escape from the bustling city life. The Haagse Bos, one of the oldest forests in the Netherlands, provides a vast expanse of greenery for jogging, cycling, or simply enjoying nature. These areas are not just recreational spots but also contribute to the air quality and overall tranquility of the neighborhood.
The use of Sunway pleated blinds is a practical feature, allowing for adjustable light control and privacy while maintaining a clean aesthetic. The laminate flooring throughout the apartment ensures easy maintenance and a consistent look. The placement of the washing machine connection in a cupboard in the hall is a smart space saving solution, keeping the appliance out of the main living areas. The separate shower room with a towel radiator adds a touch of comfort, ensuring that the bathroom is warm and usable even in colder months.
The fact that the building dates back to 1960 places it in a specific architectural era known for functionality and the rise of residential complexes. The presence of a lift is a significant advantage, not only for the elderly but also for moving furniture or groceries. The gallery construction type implies a collective outdoor space on each floor, which can foster a sense of community among neighbors. The enclosed parking terrain adds a layer of security for vehicles, a valuable asset in urban living.
The leasehold situation is an important financial consideration. The fact that it is municipal ownership means that the conditions are generally stable, but potential buyers should always check the terms of the leasehold and the annual canon payments. The active VvE with a reserve fund is a positive sign regarding the financial health of the building, indicating that maintenance is planned for and funded collectively. The monthly contribution of 175 euros is reasonable for the facilities provided, including the lift and parking.
The preference for a delivery date in September provides a clear timeline for potential buyers, which can be helpful for planning. The standard clauses regarding age and materials protect the seller against latent defects that are unavoidable in a building from 1960, but they also serve as a reminder to the buyer to inspect the property thoroughly. The use of the standard NVM contract ensures a legally sound transaction process.
