Surinamestraat 292585 GH Den HaagArchipelbuurt

Unique and special, words that don't quite reflect this beautiful monumental building on one of the most beautiful streets in The Hague. Behind a beautiful cornice facade, adorned with lion masks, festoons, and mask-themed corbels, lie magnificent spaces. With a floor area of over 430m², beautifully decorated ceilings, many authentic details, cozy nooks, and a lovely courtyard styled garden with rear access, it's truly a must-see! The street's location near the equally beautiful Nassauplein, The Hague's vibrant city center, and the charming Bankastraat, Frederikstraat, and Denneweg make living here the best of both worlds: tranquility and greenery, combined with convenience and coziness. Finally, the location in relation to arterial roads and public transport completes the picture.
