Spacious corner apartment on the top floor with stunning views in Benoordenhout
Key Features
Description
Located in the desirable Benoordenhout district of The Hague, specifically on Else Mauhslaan, this expansive corner apartment offers a unique living experience on the top floor of a well maintained apartment complex. The property, boasting a generous living area of approximately 143 square meters, is situated on the eighth floor, providing residents with a sense of privacy and exclusivity. As a top floor residence, it benefits significantly from the absence of overhead neighbors, ensuring a quiet and undisturbed living environment. The apartment presents a versatile layout, currently functioning as a three room unit, which includes two spacious bedrooms and a large L shaped living area. One of the key features of this home is the potential to easily adapt the living space to create a third bedroom or a dedicated home office, catering to various lifestyle needs and working arrangements.
Upon entering the apartment, residents are greeted by a spacious hallway that serves as a central hub. This entrance area includes practical amenities such as a wardrobe and internal storage space, as well as a separate toilet room equipped with a fountain. The layout is designed for convenience, leading naturally into the main living quarters. The living room itself is impressive, measuring approximately 71 square meters. Its L shape creates distinct zones for lounging and dining. Large windows dominate the space, allowing for an abundance of natural light to flood the interior. The positioning of the apartment offers dual aspect views. Towards the front, residents can gaze over the dune tops of Scheveningen and Wassenaar, while the rear provides a panoramic view over the neighborhood and the skyline of The Hague. These views are a defining characteristic of the property, connecting the indoor space with the surrounding landscape.
The kitchen is situated at the rear of the apartment and features a semi open design. It is described as spacious and modern, fitted with a range of built in appliances that cater to culinary needs. The flow from the kitchen to the living area makes it suitable for entertaining guests or family dining. Sleeping accommodations are well appointed in this residence. The two bedrooms are located on one side of the apartment, ensuring a peaceful rest area separate from the living zones. Both bedrooms are of a good size. The front bedroom enjoys direct access to a French balcony, which faces the front of the building, while the rear bedroom connects to a larger balcony located at the back. The balconies serve as pleasant extensions of the living space, offering outdoor areas to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The main balcony is located on the southeast, promising sunny moments during the day.
The bathroom is designed with comfort in mind, offering ample space. It is currently equipped with a walk in shower, a second toilet, a bidet, and a washbasin. Additionally, there is designated space within the bathroom for the installation of a washing machine and dryer, centralizing laundry facilities. The property also includes an external storage unit located on the ground floor of the complex, measuring 8 square meters, which is useful for storing bicycles, luggage, or seasonal items. For those with a vehicle, there is an option to purchase a separate garage box located behind the complex for an asking price of 60,000 euros. Alternatively, parking in the immediate vicinity is available through permits or is free for part of the day, providing flexibility for residents and visitors.
Constructed in 1975, the building features a flat roof and wooden window frames with double glazing. Specific attention has been given to insulation in recent years, with the roof and gable walls being insulated to improve energy efficiency. The energy label is currently registered as E. The heating is provided via block heating, with an advance payment of 800 euros per quarter. Water is supplied via a central facility. The apartment is situated on its own ground, meaning it is freehold, eliminating leasehold costs. The property is accessible via a secured entrance with electric doors and there are two elevators servicing the building, making it accessible for elderly people or those with disabilities.
The location of the property is a significant asset. It is ideally positioned relative to the Clingendael estate, a green and scenic area perfect for recreation. For daily commuters, the location is excellent, offering quick access to major highways including the A12, A4, and N44. Public transportation is also accessible, with a bus stop located directly in the street. The dunes are within walking distance, providing a natural escape right at the doorstep. The beach of Scheveningen is approximately a 15 minute bike ride away. For sports enthusiasts, the neighborhood is well served with various facilities nearby, including tennis courts, golf courses, a hockey club, and a rugby club.
Daily shopping needs are met by the presence of an Albert Heijn and other small shops located around the corner at Willem Royaardsplein. This square is noted to be on the verge of a thorough renovation, which will likely enhance the local amenities further. The city center of The Hague is also easily reachable from this location. The apartment is part of an active Homeowners Association. The monthly contribution for the apartment is 602.15 euros, and if the garage is purchased, an additional 47.05 euros per quarter applies. The VvE is professionally managed, with a reserve fund, a maintenance plan, and building insurance in place. As is standard with properties of this age, the purchase agreement will include a non occupancy clause, a materials clause, and an age clause. This property represents a substantial living space in a prime location, combining the practicalities of apartment living with the space and views often associated with a house.
