This distinctive upper-floor apartment is located in an exceptionally central position, in what may well be the most attractive street in the much-loved Duinoord neighbourhood. The residential area dates from the late nineteenth century. Its beautiful architecture, with richly decorated façades, wide rooms with high ceilings, and characteristic period details, appeals to many. The neighbourhood is also very centrally located in The Hague. From here, the beach, the city centre, and main railway stations are easily reached by bicycle or public transport. Several parks, including the Scheveningse Bosjes, are within a fifteen-minute walk. Major roads are also easily accessible via the city ring road. The presence of several international schools nearby further enhances the area’s international character. At the heart of this popular neighbourhood lies the charming Reinkenstraat, a pleasant shopping street offering a mix of traditional specialist shops, such as butchers, bakers, and greengrocers, alongside cafés, restaurants, and lunch spots. A hidden gem of the area is Sunny Court, an inner garden between Obrechtstraat and Laan van Meerdervoort a leafy oasis of tranquillity open to the public during the day. The combination of amenities and location has made this neighbourhood consistently popular for many years. Layout (see floor plans for dimensions) From the street, the shared entrance door leads into the hall with utility meters, letterboxes, and space for several bicycles. The private front door is located here. A comfortable staircase leads to the first floor, where there is a landing with a spacious cloak cupboard.

In the front room, the cupboards have been opened up and a pellet stove has been installed in the fireplace for additional warmth. At the rear, the room has French doors leading to the delightful terrace. The terrace, measuring over 10 m², enjoys an ideal south-facing orientation and becomes a wonderfully sunny additional living space in summer. From the rear room there is access to the beautiful kitchen, which can also be reached from the landing.

Appliances include a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and extractor hood, as well as a designer five-burner gas cooker with a wide oven.
