Description
Sensational 8-room townhouse that offers modern comforts whilst retaining its late 19th century cultural roots. This delightful home exudes traditional charm as reflected by the many lovingly preserved original architectural details, including the lofty ceilings that provide an extra spacious feel. Among its standout features are a deep (ca. 15 meter) southeast-facing enclosed garden with a wooden shed and a separate back entrance.
The location in the leafy Benoordenhout neighborhood offers easy access to many of The Hague’s nicest parks, finest schools and shops, and most extensive sports facilities. The city centre, public transport, central railway station, and major motorways are all reachable in mere minutes.
Layout:
The front door opens to a vestibule and spacious hall with a guest lavatory and access to the cellar. There are two large reception rooms, separated by a beautiful set of leaded glass sliding doors and adorned with decorative plaster ceilings, original parquet flooring, and built-in storage, plus French doors to the deep sunny back garden.
At the top of the stairs to the 1st floor is a landing laid with tropical hardwood parquet. From here there are doors to a separate wc, a bedroom, and a utility room housing the laundry and the central heating unit (installed in 2021). There are another 2 adjoining rooms, of which one has French doors to a balcony; both retain the possibility to install a working fireplace. The semi-open kitchen facing the rear features integrated appliances and French doors to a Juliet balcony.
On the 2nd floor is a landing with built-in cupboard and a wc. One large and one smaller bedroom overlook the back, both with access to a big terrace; an additional spacious bedroom faces the front. They share a bathroom with bath, walk-in shower, and washbasin.
