Key Features
Upsides
- The ground lease (erfpacht) is perpetual and has been fully bought off, meaning no recurring payments for the land.
- The property is very spacious with 210 m² of living space, 8 rooms, and 2 bathrooms, making it suitable for a large family.
- There is a separate garage available with its own cadastral number, which is a rare asset in The Hague.

Downsides

- The property has an energy label D, which is below modern efficiency standards despite recent renovations like double glazing.
- Street parking is restricted to paid parking or permit systems, which may be inconvenient for owners of multiple vehicles.
- Due to the construction year of 1929, standard clauses for lead, asbestos, and old age are applicable, which may imply maintenance risks.
Description
This spacious and unique eight room townhouse is situated in the desirable Vogelwijk neighborhood, located specifically between the Fazantplein and Haanplein. The property offers a generous living space of approximately 210 square meters with a volume of 825 cubic meters. The home features two full bathrooms and a sunny backyard that is connected to a garage which has its own cadastral number on the Kauwlaan. One of the most significant financial advantages of this property is that the ground lease is perpetual and the canon has been fully bought off, meaning there are no recurring lease payments.
Upon entering the home, guests are welcomed by an entrance with a canopy leading to a spacious vestibule. The vestibule features a draft separation and is finished with slate floor tiles that extend through the hallway. A wall mounted toilet room with a hand basin is located here. The reception areas are impressive, featuring a spacious living and dining room complete with a wood burning fireplace. The room benefits from an abundance of natural light. An open passage connects the living area to the kitchen. The kitchen is arranged in an L shape and is well equipped for modern living. It includes a fridge freezer combination, a dishwasher, and a close in boiler. Cooking appliances consist of a ceramic hob with a grill, a fryer, and an oven. An extractor hood and microwave are also present. The kitchen features a granite countertop and is finished with high quality materials.
The outdoor space is a particular highlight of this residence. The charming and sunny backyard faces the southeast, ensuring plenty of sunlight throughout the day. The garden includes a veranda and two terraces, providing multiple spots for relaxation or outdoor dining. A unique feature of this property is that the backyard is in direct connection with the garage. This garage is located on the Kauwlaan and is a separate structure. There is a possibility to park in front of the garage. The garage itself is offered for sale at an additional asking price.
Moving to the first floor, a spacious landing provides access to the various rooms. There is a built in cupboard on the landing that houses the connections for a washing machine and dryer. The first bathroom is tastefully finished with white tiles and includes a toilet, a double vanity unit, and a walk in shower. The sleeping quarters on this level consist of a bright rear bedroom that features a wall of wardrobes and sliding doors leading to a balcony. This room offers a free view across the Kauwlaan towards the Patrijslaan. Additionally, there is a spacious front bedroom featuring a bay window and a spacious front side room, offering flexible accommodation options.
The second floor of the home continues to offer ample space and comfort. The landing leads to a second bathroom, which is equipped with a walk in shower, a toilet, and a double vanity unit, providing great convenience for a large family. There are two bedrooms on this floor. The bright rear bedroom has an open closet and a dormer window that spans the entire width of the room, allowing for plenty of light. The spacious front bedroom also features an open closet and a full width dormer window. Furthermore, there is a front side room. From the landing, there is access to a spacious attic. This attic offers the potential to create a fourth living level, subject to the necessary permits, which would further increase the already substantial living area of the home.
The property is located on land owned by the municipality of The Hague under a perpetual leasehold arrangement where the canon has been bought off. The acceptance date is in consultation. The asking price for the garage is 100000 Euro, payable by the buyer. Sewerage charges for 2026 are noted as 195.40 Euro. The electrical installation includes 14 groups and is three phase with 3 earth leakage circuit breakers. The heating is provided by a central heating combi boiler from the brand Ltho Daaldrop from 2013. Hot water is also supplied via this boiler. The maintenance condition of the sanitary facilities and kitchen is good, as is the interior and exterior maintenance of the property. The windows are a combination of wooden and aluminum frames with partially double glazing. The ground floor at the rear is equipped with electric sun blinds.
The home is situated within a protected townscape, which ensures the preservation of the character of the neighborhood. There is no oil tank on the property and a KIWA certificate is available. The buyer is free to choose a notary, provided the notary is located in the Haaglanden region. Standard clauses regarding lead, asbestos, and age will be included in the purchase agreement. The home was built in 1929, combining classic architecture with modern amenities. The property has undergone a technical structural inspection.
The location in the Vogelwijk is highly convenient for daily life. Shops are located nearby on Goudsbloemlaan, Fahrenheitstraat, Thomsonlaan, and Frederik Hendriklaan. The De Savornin Lohmanplein and the city center of The Hague are also easily accessible. For nature lovers, the Bosjes van Poot, the dunes, the beach, and the sea are close by. The seaside resort of Kijkduin and the harbor of Scheveningen offer various restaurants and museums. Public transport connections are excellent with RandstadRail line 3, tram line 11, and bus 24 nearby. The main roads are accessible via the Hubertustunnel and the Westland route. The property is also located close to the European and or International School of The Hague, as well as primary schools and various sports facilities.
