Key Features
Description
The property at Oscar Romeroplein 35 in Den Haag Houtwijk is presented on the market at an asking price of €895,000 buyer's costs. This five-room corner townhouse was constructed in 1999 and features a distinctive tower room along with a beautifully landscaped, exceptionally spacious backyard that directly borders the water.
The architectural design takes inspiration from the renowned Hague School style characteristic of the 1930s period. This historical reference gives the property a timeless elegance while incorporating modern conveniences and contemporary standards of comfort. The residence offers a generous living space complete with a luxury open-plan kitchen and a backyard specifically oriented to capture the afternoon sunlight, with the added benefit of a waterfront location. A notable feature of this property is the presence of a second kitchen and bathroom on the second floor, providing remarkable flexibility in how the space can be utilized.
The ground floor arrangement begins with an entrance leading to a remarkably spacious hallway measuring 10 square meters. This hallway includes a large separate wardrobe space spanning 5 square meters, offering ample storage for coats, shoes, and accessories. Adjacent to this is a spacious indoor storage area of 4 square meters that provides convenient space for parking bicycles, along with the meter cupboard and a modern floating toilet complete with a small sink for hand washing.
From the hallway, one accesses the spacious and bright living room which covers 47 square meters. This generous living area features four French doors that open directly onto the backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. The backyard has been thoughtfully designed with four distinct terraces that ensure plenty of privacy for the residents. One particularly appealing feature is a lowered terrace situated directly at the water's edge, perfect for enjoying the tranquil waterfront setting. Additionally, there is a five-sided spacious wooden garden house that could serve various purposes from storage to a garden studio.
The open L-shaped luxury Keller kitchen represents a significant feature of the ground floor. This kitchen is comprehensively equipped with various high-quality built-in appliances. These include a Siemens combination microwave, an Atag close-in boiler for instant hot water, and a Siemens dishwasher for convenient cleaning. A freestanding American refrigerator with an ice cube and ice water mechanism provides excellent cold storage capacity. The kitchen also boasts a separate cooking island featuring an electronic gas cooktop with a dedicated wok burner for Asian-style cooking. Above this island sits an Atag glass island extractor hood with remote control functionality, operating as a recirculation hood. All worktops throughout the kitchen are finished in premium hardstone material specifically Cesarstone, known for its durability and aesthetic appeal.
The rear facade of the property has an impressive width of 11.5 meters and incorporates numerous windows that flood the interior with natural light. The entire ground floor is finished with a marble floor that incorporates underfloor heating, ensuring warmth and comfort throughout the colder months while providing an elegant appearance.
The open staircase connecting the ground floor to the first floor is crafted from ash wood and features two anti-slip strips per step, combining aesthetic appeal with practical safety considerations.
The first floor layout comprises a spacious landing that provides access to a second separate toilet, which is fully tiled from floor to ceiling for easy maintenance. There are two bedrooms located at the backyard side of the property, measuring 16.5 square meters and 16 square meters respectively. At the front of the property, there is a bedroom that also serves as a study room, measuring 15.5 square meters and featuring an integrated spacious L-shaped desk built into the room.
The main bathroom on this floor covers 5.5 square meters and is finished to a high standard with a bathtub, separate shower enclosure, and a washbasin. All bathroom walls are tiled with large-format white tiles extending to the ceiling, creating a clean and contemporary appearance. All windows throughout the first floor are equipped with blackout roller blinds, plus floor-length sheer curtains and heavier drapes, allowing complete control over light levels and privacy.
The second floor is accessed via another open ash wood staircase with the same anti-slip strip feature as the lower staircase. Positioned beneath the tower room, this floor contains a second fully equipped kitchen with a tiled floor. Adjacent to this kitchen is a separate shower room featuring a design radiator. The kitchen area also incorporates the installation space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, making this floor highly self-sufficient.
Behind a lockable door, one finds a large fourth bedroom in an L-shaped configuration measuring approximately 35 square meters. This substantial room could serve as a master bedroom, guest suite, or even a separate living area depending on the needs of the occupants. The room is fitted with a blackout roller blind and white floor-length sheer curtains.
The technical installations on this floor include an HR CV combination boiler and a mechanical ventilation unit, both discreetly concealed behind a closed door wall. A lowered ceiling with integrated lighting has been installed to hide all exhaust pipes from view, maintaining a clean and uncluttered appearance. This fully furnished attic floor benefits from excellent natural light, achieved through a dormer window at the front elevation and a tilt window at the rear. A particularly practical feature is the separate clock thermostat for heating on this floor, enabling independent temperature control from the rest of the property.
The property has perpetual ground lease with both the canon and management costs having been paid off in full, eliminating this ongoing expense. The electrical installation comprises 9 groups and 2 earth leakage switches, providing adequate capacity for modern living requirements. The attractively landscaped garden benefits from a computer-controlled irrigation system that ensures optimal watering without manual intervention. The rear facade features three electrically operated sun blinds that can be deployed to control sunlight and heat gain during warm weather. The property is situated on a traffic-calmed road adjacent to a child-friendly play area, making it particularly suitable for families with children.
The usable floor area totals 180 square meters with a building volume of 636 cubic meters. The plot area measures 345 square meters for the main parcel, while the total listed plot is 690 square meters. There is a freestanding wooden shed with electricity in the garden.
