Ground-floor apartment with southwest-facing garden in popular Bomenbuurt
Key Features
Description
Located on Populierstraat in the Bomenbuurt district of The Hague, this ground-floor apartment from 1924 offers approximately 81 square meters of living space combined with a generously sized rear garden. The property was fully renovated in 2019 and has since received additional improvements, particularly in the area of energy efficiency. The apartment is part of a small-scale complex consisting of three apartment rights in total.
The entrance of the apartment provides direct access to both the living room and the front bedroom. The living room is spacious and flows naturally through to the kitchen area, creating an open and connected living space. This layout allows for flexible arrangement of furniture and various ways to define different zones within the home. The oak wooden flooring runs throughout the living areas, contributing to a warm and cohesive appearance.
The kitchen is situated at the rear of the property and features an adjoining covered outdoor area, which serves as a practical transition zone between the interior and the garden. From the kitchen, residents can step directly into the backyard, making outdoor dining and entertaining convenient.
The apartment contains two bedrooms in total. The first bedroom is located at the front of the property, accessible directly from the entrance area. The second bedroom is positioned at the rear and is described as generous in size. This rear bedroom also has direct access to the outside, allowing residents to enjoy the garden from their private sleeping quarters. This configuration makes the property suitable for various household compositions, from couples to small families or individuals who require a home office space.
The hallway connects the living room to the rear bedroom and provides access to several essential facilities. Here you will find the separate toilet, the bathroom, and a technical room where the washing machine and dryer are installed. Having the laundry appliances in a dedicated space keeps the main living areas uncluttered. The bathroom is equipped with a double vanity, a walk-in shower, and floor heating, adding comfort to daily routines.
The rear garden measures 62 square meters with dimensions of approximately 10.27 meters in depth and 6.00 meters in width. The garden faces southwest, which means it receives sunlight for most of the day during the warmer months. At the back of the garden stands a freestestone shed with electricity connection and shelving, providing practical storage space for tools, bicycles, and other items that would otherwise take up room inside the apartment.
In terms of energy performance, the property holds an energy label C with a validity period until April 2036. The building has benefited from several insulation upgrades over recent years. The facade has been insulated, and in 2024, floor insulation using the Tonzon system was installed. The windows feature HR++ double glazing, which helps retain heat during winter while reducing outside noise. Heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha Tzerra gas-fired boiler from 2017, which is included in the sale as owned property.
The electrical installation has been modernized and includes 10 circuit groups with dual residual current devices (earth leakage protection), meeting contemporary safety standards. The property has both mechanical and natural ventilation options, contributing to a healthy indoor climate.
The apartment is held on freehold land, meaning there is no ground lease (erfpacht) to consider. The active Owners Association (VvE) consists of three apartment rights with a monthly contribution of 125 euros. The VvE has a maintenance plan in place covering the period from 2025 to 2034, and a reserve fund of 2,676 euros as of April 2026. Building insurance is arranged through the VvE. These organizational aspects provide transparency regarding future maintenance obligations and financial planning.
The Bomenbuurt neighborhood is well-regarded in The Hague for its residential character and convenient amenities. The De Fahrenheit shopping area serves as a local center for daily groceries and specialty stores. For those who value proximity to nature, the location offers easy access to several green areas. The Zuiderstrand beach can be reached in approximately 10 minutes, while the Bosjes van Poot and Westduinpark are about 5 minutes away. The city center of The Hague is accessible within 15 minutes, and multiple public transport stops are available in the vicinity.
Parking in the area is regulated through a permit system with paid on-street parking available. Prospective buyers should factor in the cost and availability of parking permits when considering this property.
The asking price is 500,000 euros, which translates to approximately 6,173 euros per square meter of living space. The municipal property value (WOZ) has been assessed at 500,000 euros with a reference date of January 1, 2025, indicating alignment between the asking price and official valuation.
Given the construction year of 1924, the sale is subject to the standard age and materials clause, which is typical for older properties in the Netherlands. This clause addresses the fact that older buildings may contain materials and construction methods that do not meet current standards, and buyers accept the property in its existing condition with regard to these historical aspects.
The property is currently available and the acceptance terms are described as negotiable, allowing some flexibility regarding the moving date and any specific conditions the buyer and seller may need to arrange.
