Description
Located on Vogelkersstraat in the desirable Bloemenbuurt neighborhood of The Hague, this characterful ground floor and upper floor apartment offers approximately 150 square meters of living space spread across three full residential levels. The property features sunny front and back gardens, two balconies, four bedrooms, and the elegant atmosphere typical of a classic townhouse from the early twentieth century.
The Bloemenbuurt is widely regarded as one of the most popular residential areas in The Hague. This particular street is quiet and tree-lined, with mature greenery and attractive architecture dating from the beginning of the previous century. The property enjoys an unobstructed view at the front overlooking characteristic villas, which contributes to the open and stylish character of the location. The Fahrenheitstraat and Goudsbloemplein are within short walking distance, known for their relaxed atmosphere, distinctive architecture, and refined mix of artisan specialty shops, quality coffee bars, delicatessens, and charming boutiques.
The dunes, beach, and sea of Scheveningen are just a few minutes by bicycle. International schools, sports clubs, and public transport are also available in the immediate vicinity. This location successfully combines urban living with an almost village-like tranquility and a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
The ground floor is accessed via the front garden, which benefits from morning sun. The classic vestibule with draft portal leads to the central hall containing the meter cupboard and a toilet with washbasin. The former en-suite living room of approximately 50 square meters forms the heart of the home: an impressive living space with a attractive bay window at the front, high ceilings, abundant natural light, and particularly pleasant proportions. The French doors to the garden create a pleasant connection with the outdoors during the summer months. At the rear is the closed kitchen with the installation location for the central heating combi boiler, built in 2023, and access to the garden.
The back garden faces west and has a practical stone storage shed. Due to its sheltered location, this garden forms a natural extension of the living space, green, quiet, and pleasantly private. It is an ideal spot for long summer evenings with friends and family. The property also has a practical storage cellar of approximately 9 square meters, suitable for extra storage, provisions, wine, and seasonal items.
The first floor features a landing with two well-proportioned bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom at the rear provides access to the rear balcony, a quiet place to start the day in a relaxed manner. The front bedroom has a built-in closet and offers an unobstructed view of the beautiful villas. The centrally located renovated bathroom is equipped with a walk-in shower, toilet, washbasin furniture, towel radiator, and a connection for the washing machine.
The second floor has a light landing with a large skylight, providing access to two well-proportioned bedrooms and a separate storage room with the possibility to create a second bathroom. The front bedroom has a built-in closet and a dormer window. The rear bedroom provides access to the spacious balcony of approximately 6 square meters, a sheltered and private outdoor space where you can enjoy the sun from the afternoon until sunset.
The combination of front garden, sunny back garden, and two balconies ensures that at any time of day there is a pleasant spot in the sun or, if preferred, in the shade. The property is fully equipped with plastic window frames with double glazing. Heating and hot water are provided by an Intergas combi boiler from 2023.
The ground lease has been perpetually paid off, meaning no periodic ground lease payments are required. The property is part of an active Homeowners Association with 4 members, where this unit has a 3/14th share. The monthly contribution is 108 euros plus collective building insurance. The reserve fund currently contains approximately 21,395 euros.
This family home offers exceptional proportions, plenty of light, and ample opportunities to further refine the property according to your own preferences. The asking price is 650,000 euros, buyer pays all transfer costs.
