Luxuriously Renovated Art Nouveau Apartment with Canal Views in Central Den Haag
Key Features
Description
Located on the second floor at Koningin Emmakade in Den Haag, this approximately 90 square meter apartment has been fully renovated under architectural supervision. The building dates back to 1938 and is situated within a protected cityscape, offering a combination of historical character and modern amenities.
Upon entering the apartment, visitors are welcomed into a hallway featuring blue-toned wallpaper with tree motifs that integrate with the surrounding woodwork. The interior design has been carefully considered throughout, with custom elements that reference the Art Nouveau period while incorporating contemporary functionality.
The living room features an open kitchen that serves as the central gathering point of the home. The kitchen island is finished with a luxury quartzite countertop that extends to provide additional cabinetry on the living room side, creating a practical space for dining or socializing. The back wall niche is also clad in the same quartzite material and includes integrated lighting and electrical outlets. Upper cabinets reach toward the high ceiling, making effective use of the 2.80 meter vertical space. The island drawers feature automatic lighting that activates upon opening. The kitchen is equipped with Siemens appliances, a Bora cooktop with integrated extraction system, and a Quooker Patina hot water tap.
The living areas continue the Art Nouveau theme through ornamental details and wainscoting, painted in a soft tone referred to as Ms. Wool. Doors fitted with gilded espagnolette handles open to a small balcony that overlooks the green canal-side promenade. The dining area features unique paneled wallpaper that pays homage to traditional craftsmanship, complemented by wooden Art Nouveau detailing above. The flooring throughout consists of wide-plank engineered oak.
The apartment benefits from a comprehensive underfloor heating system that can be controlled by zone, allowing for personalized comfort in different areas. A home automation (domotica) system is installed, enabling control of lighting with dimming capabilities throughout the residence.
The master bedroom is positioned at the rear of the apartment and features castle-style paneling and wainscoting. Large windows with French doors fitted with espagnolette hardware provide natural light and a sense of spaciousness. The room includes a fabric canopy element above the bed area.
The second bedroom is located adjacent to the master and is finished in Teresa's Green by Farrow and Ball, with the color applied to both walls and woodwork. This room also features custom-made wainscoting and offers ample space.
The bathroom is accessible from the hallway and includes underfloor heating, a freestanding cast-iron clawfoot bathtub, a walk-in shower, and a double vanity with a marble countertop. The lighting has been selected to complement the overall aesthetic, and a unique hand-crafted Art Nouveau tile from Jerusalem serves as a distinctive decorative element.
A separate toilet room features an antique-style basin, striped wallpaper, and an octagonal tiled floor.
The technical room houses the hybrid heating system, comprising a heat pump and a Remeha Avanta high-efficiency combination boiler (gas-fired, installed in 2025 and included in the purchase). Space is provided for laundry appliances.
The apartment achieves an A++ energy rating according to a customized report, reflecting the full insulation and modern technical installations. A 12-month warranty on the renovation work is provided, subject to applicable conditions.
The property is located in a fantastically central position in Den Haag, just a short distance from Sweelinckplein, considered one of the city's most attractive squares.
