Situated in the highly sought-after Duinoord district of The Hague, this generously proportioned ground-floor apartment offers a comfortable living experience with three bedrooms and a total living area of 141 square meters. The property is located on Obrechtstraat, a quiet street within a residential neighborhood that benefits from close proximity to various amenities and attractive destinations.

The building dates back to 1896 and is situated within a nationally protected cityscape, which means the area maintains its historical character and charm. Despite its age, the property has been updated in several important ways to meet modern living standards. The apartment spans two living levels and is classified as a ground-floor plus upper-floor apartment type.

Upon entering the property through the main entrance on the ground floor, you arrive in a central hallway that provides access to the various rooms.

The living and dining room forms the heart of the apartment and is generously sized. The floor is finished with an oak herringbone parquet, adding warmth and character to the space. The ceiling features ornamental details that reflect the period of construction. At the front of the living area, large windows provide ample natural light. Above these windows, the original stained glass has been preserved, contributing to the authentic atmosphere of the home. The living area includes an en-suite separation with built-in cupboards and classic wall paneling, creating a characterful and tasteful living environment.

At the rear of the living space lies the dining area, which features French doors that open directly onto the garden. This connection between indoor and outdoor living makes the garden feel like a natural extension of the living space.

The open-plan kitchen was installed in 2024 and presents a modern design with practical layout considerations. It includes a kitchen island equipped with a sink and dishwasher. Additional appliances consist of an induction cooktop, a recirculation extractor hood, a combi-oven, and a fridge-freezer combination. The kitchen offers ample storage space, and the layout has been designed so that the cooking area is subtly positioned out of direct view from the living room.

The garden at the rear of the property faces southwest, allowing residents to enjoy sunlight well into the evening hours. Measuring 38 square meters with a depth of 13 meters and a width of 2.96 meters, the garden provides a green and private outlook.

French doors open onto a sunny balcony at the rear, also facing southwest. The main bedroom is equipped with air conditioning that was installed in 2024, providing comfort during warmer months.

On the lower level of the rear section, there are two additional bedrooms. Both rooms benefit from good natural light and views of the garden. These spaces are suitable for use as children's rooms, a home office, or guest accommodation.
