Charming Ground Floor Apartment with Three Bedrooms and Spacious Garden in Rustenburg
Key Features
Description
This atmospheric and move-in ready ground floor apartment is situated on Escamplaan in the Rustenburg district of The Hague. The property offers a pleasant combination of comfort, space, and the characteristic charm typical of buildings from the 1920s era. With approximately 76 square meters of living space and a layout featuring three bedrooms, this is a versatile ground floor residence that appeals to various types of buyers, from first-time homeowners to small families or couples looking for extra room.
The pre-war facade gives the building a distinctive character that is appreciated in the Rustenburg neighborhood. At the same time, the interior has been updated to meet contemporary living standards. The entire property features plastic window frames with double glazing, which contributes to better insulation and lower energy costs. The energy label is rated D, which is reasonable for a building of this age that has received these window upgrades.
Upon entering the apartment on the ground floor, you reach the hallway through a draft porch, which helps keep out cold air during the winter months. The hallway provides access to all rooms in the apartment, making the layout practical and efficient. At the front of the property, you will find the living room and the first bedroom. The meter cupboard is also located in this front bedroom, keeping utility access conveniently out of the main living areas.
The bathroom is centrally positioned within the apartment and has been neatly finished. It is equipped with a walk-in shower, a sink vanity, and a toilet. This central placement means the bathroom is easily accessible from all bedrooms, adding to the overall convenience of the floor plan.
At the rear of the property are the second and third bedrooms, along with the separate kitchen. The kitchen was completely renewed in 2025, giving it a fresh and contemporary appearance. This recent renovation means the new owner will benefit from a modern cooking space that requires no additional investment or updating. The kitchen provides direct access to the spacious rear garden, which makes the transition between indoor and outdoor living seamless, particularly during the warmer months.
The rear garden is generously sized at 58 square meters and offers ample space for outdoor furniture, gardening, or simply relaxing. The garden faces north, which means it receives a different pattern of sunlight throughout the day compared to south-facing gardens. In the garden, there is a detached wooden storage shed with electricity, which is ideal for storing bicycles, gardening tools, or other items that need to be kept secure and dry.
The building itself is well organized with an active Homeowners Association that is professionally managed. The monthly VvE contribution is 120 euros. The property represents a three-tenths share in the association, covering house numbers 13, 15, and 17. As of March 23, 2026, the VvE balance stood at 5,010.56 euros, and there is a collective building insurance in place. It should be noted that there is no formal maintenance plan documented for the VvE.
The heating system consists of a Remeha gas-fired combi boiler installed in 2016, which is included in the purchase. At approximately ten years old at the time of listing, this boiler still has a reasonable remaining lifespan before replacement might be considered. Hot water is also provided through this combi boiler system. The property has mechanical ventilation, which helps maintain good air quality throughout the apartment.
The property is held under municipal perpetual leasehold that has been reissued. The semi-annual canon payment is 123.54 euros, totaling approximately 247.08 euros per year. The canon percentage is set at 3.3 percent, with the next revision scheduled for January 1, 2031. The ground value is established at 7,487 euros. There is an option to buy out the leasehold, which potential buyers may wish to explore depending on their financial situation and long-term plans for the property.
The Rustenburg neighborhood offers a central location relative to various amenities and facilities. Throughout the area, there are several small playgrounds where children can play outdoors. The Dierenselaan shops and the Leyenburg shopping center are within walking distance, providing convenient access to daily groceries and other retail needs. The bustling center of The Hague can be reached by bicycle in approximately fifteen minutes, making this location practical for those who work or study in the city center.
For recreational purposes, the Zuiderpark is located at cycling distance, offering green space for walking, sports, and outdoor activities. The beach and coastal areas are also accessible, as are public transportation connections and main roads leading out of the city. It is worth noting that the property is situated on a busy road while also being in a residential area, which may result in some traffic noise from the front of the apartment.
Parking in the area is regulated through paid parking, public parking spaces, and a parking permit system. Prospective buyers should factor in the cost and availability of parking permits when considering this property, especially if they own a vehicle.
The asking price is 325,000 euros, which translates to approximately 4,276 euros per square meter of living space. The property is offered with a costs k buyer status, meaning the buyer is responsible for transfer taxes and notary fees. A project notary has been designated: Matzinger Eversdijk Notarissen. The materials and age clause applies to this transaction, which is standard for older properties. Delivery is by mutual agreement.
There is a minor inconsistency in the listing regarding the number of bedrooms. The description and layout section mention three bedrooms, while the features section states four rooms with two bedrooms. Based on the detailed layout description that explicitly identifies Bedroom I, II, and III, the property appears to have three bedrooms. Prospective buyers are advised to verify this detail during a viewing.
The roof is described as a flat roof covered with bituminous roofing material, which is typical for this type of apartment building. The total volume of the apartment is approximately 240 cubic meters, and there is 11 square meters of external storage space in the form of the detached wooden shed in the garden.
This ground floor apartment presents itself as a comfortable and spacious home that is ready for a new occupant. The combination of the recently renovated kitchen, the practical layout with three bedrooms, the generous garden, and the central location in The Hague makes this a property worth considering for those seeking a characteristic home with modern conveniences in a well-connected neighborhood.
