Description
This exceptional luxury apartment is situated in the vibrant harbor district of Scheveningen, offering an unparalleled combination of light, space, comfort, and sophistication. The property was comprehensively and luxuriously renovated in 2022 by renowned interior designer Daniela Cupello, resulting in a residence that seamlessly blends high-end finishes with practical living.
The apartment spans a generous living area of approximately 210 square meters and is located on the first floor of a small-scale, characterful complex. The building, originally constructed in 1941, has been thoughtfully updated while maintaining its distinctive architectural character. The complex houses both residential and commercial units, contributing to the dynamic neighborhood atmosphere.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a reception hall featuring a wardrobe, meter cupboard, guest toilet, and a cabinet housing the central heating installation. The reception area provides access to all principal rooms of the apartment.
The spacious and bright living room serves as the heart of this home. It is equipped with a bio-ethanol built-in fireplace manufactured by Afire, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open-plan layout flows naturally into the luxurious kitchen, which includes a breakfast bar and a visual connection to the seating area. The kitchen is finished with an elegant stone countertop, featuring both a cooking and a rinsing island, complemented by a wall of cabinetry. High-quality Gaggenau built-in appliances are integrated throughout, including an oven, microwave, and warming drawer. Generous storage space ensures the kitchen remains clutter-free and functional.
The master bedroom is positioned at the front of the apartment and features a fitted wardrobe wall. It boasts a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, double vanity sink, toilet, freestanding bath, and an atmospheric water vapor fireplace. Two additional bedrooms are located at the rear of the property. The second master bedroom also includes a fitted wardrobe, private bathroom with bath, toilet, and water vapor fireplace, as well as access to the surrounding balcony. The third bedroom similarly has its own bathroom facilities and wardrobe space.
Throughout the entire residence, a beautiful cast floor with underfloor heating has been installed, adding both comfort and a luxurious aesthetic touch to every room.
From the living room and kitchen, you access the partially covered sun terrace of approximately 24 square meters. This outdoor space enjoys afternoon and evening sun due to its southwest-facing orientation and offers sweeping views over the harbor and sea. The terrace measures 3.87 meters in depth and 6.23 meters in width, providing ample space for outdoor relaxation and entertainment.
The apartment is equipped with aluminum window frames and HR++ glass throughout, with all glass being replaced in 2022. Heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha Calenta Ace 40L HR combination boiler from 2020, which is owned rather than rented.
Parking facilities are located at the rear of the complex within a secured parking area. The listing includes one private parking space, with the possibility to purchase additional parking spaces. Depending on vehicle dimensions, two to three parking spots can be accommodated, with the additional spaces available as separate purchases.
The monthly VvE contribution amounts to 350 euros, covering maintenance of common areas, building insurance, and contributions to the reserve fund. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce and holds regular annual meetings.
The property is situated on municipal leasehold land with the ground rent perpetually bought off, meaning there are no future ground rent payments to consider. The energy performance certificate rates the property at label A, reflecting its excellent insulation and energy efficiency.
The location is exceptional. Scheveningen harbor offers an abundance of excellent restaurants, lively historical harbor scenery, and essential shopping facilities within walking distance. The famous Scheveningen beach, pier, boulevard, and diverse dining options are easily accessible. Despite the vibrant surroundings, the apartment itself provides an oasis of tranquility and comfort, while its unique design creates a harmonious connection with the outside world.
The apartment is accessible via a closed entrance with elevator and staircase access to the first floor. Only two apartments are situated on this floor, ensuring optimal privacy for residents.
Additional features include a lift for accessibility, mechanical ventilation system, double glazing, floor insulation, and a project notary applies to the transaction. Acceptance and handover of the property will be by mutual agreement.

Early 20th Century
Built in 1941 (early 1940s), this is borderline for early 20th century. 1941 is technically before mid-century (1950s), but the building doesn't appear to have traditional 'jaren-30' (1930s) characteristics. Renovation in 2022 has updated the property significantly.

Shared Kitchen
This is a private apartment with its own fully equipped private kitchen. No shared kitchen arrangement is described.
Design Kitchen
