Description
Townhouse from 1916 — 217 m², ten rooms, sunny southwest-facing garden
There are homes that catch your attention, and there are homes that stay with you. This is the second kind.
Set on a wide, tree-lined avenue on the border of the Statenkwartier and the Geuzenkwartier, this 1916 townhouse is a property that has not merely survived the passage of time but grown more distinguished because of it.
The high ceilings, the stained glass windows, the original parquet floors, the ornamental cornices and decorative plasterwork are not stylistic choices made during a renovation. This is simply how homes were built at the beginning of the last century, for people who took space, light and quality seriously.
With approximately 217 m² of living space across three full floors, a dry cellar and ten rooms, this is a home that gives you freedom. Freedom of layout, of use, of vision. A generous family home. A considered combination of living and working.
A property to configure entirely according to your own wishes, without compromising on character. Homes like this rarely come to market. When they do, they do not stay there long.
HIGHLIGHTS
+ Approx. 217 m² of living space across three floors and a dry cellar
+ Ten rooms, generously proportioned family home or ideal live-work arrangement
+ Sunny southwest-facing rear garden, two balconies and unobstructed views to the front
LAYOUT
GROUND FLOOR
The entrance hall tells you immediately what kind of house this is. The stained glass fanlight above the front door, the generous ceiling height, the width of the hallway: these are proportions you simply cannot find in new construction.
To the front, a large room with open fireplace and tall windows. The original parquet floor and period detailing give this space a warm, representative quality that works equally well as a formal reception room or an everyday living room.
To the rear, a second generous room with ornamental ceiling plasterwork and direct access to the garden, again finished with original parquet that sets the tone throughout.
A separate room with sink and water connection provides a solid foundation for creating a spacious kitchen and living area. The hallway includes a separate toilet with hand basin. From here, stairs lead down to the dry cellar housing the central heating system; the sandy subsoil foundation keeps it consistently dry.
FIRST FLOOR
To the front are two rooms: a smaller space that works well as a study, dressing room or child's bedroom, and a generous master bedroom with a characteristic bay window, original parquet floor and built-in wardrobe running almost the full width of the room.
To the rear are two further rooms, including a spacious bedroom with original parquet and refined ceiling detailing.
The fourth room already has water supply and drainage in place, making it straightforward to install a full bathroom. A separate toilet is also located on this floor.
SECOND FLOOR
The top floor surprises with its generous proportions and quality of light. To the front, a large room with built-in storage and stained glass windows, with French doors opening onto the front-facing balcony. Adjacent to it, a second room with the same characteristic stained glass detailing.
Centrally positioned is a versatile space previously used as a kitchen and shower room, offering excellent potential for a full bathroom or an alternative layout to suit your own needs. To the rear are two further rooms: one with direct access to the sunny rear balcony, one with its own washbasin.
A separate toilet is located on this floor as well. The new skylight above the stairwell, renewed in 2025, draws natural light deep into the floor.
OUTDOOR SPACE
The southwest-facing rear garden receives sun for virtually the entire day. Its sheltered position ensures peace and privacy; a garden to genuinely live in, not simply look at. Two balconies extend outdoor living to the upper floors, with the rear balcony fully renewed in zinc in 2015.
LOCATION AND NEIGHBOURHOOD
Living on Van Boetzelaerlaan means living somewhere that shows The Hague at its finest. Situated on the border of the stately Statenkwartier and the charming Geuzenkwartier, this neighbourhood brings together classic Hague elegance and a vibrant, international character.
The wide avenues, the distinctive early twentieth-century architecture and the rich history give this area an enduring appeal that has drawn families, professionals and internationally-oriented residents for generations.
A short distance away is the Frederik Hendriklaan, known locally as "De Fred", with a broad selection of quality shops, specialist food stores, delicatessens, lunchrooms and restaurants. The nearby Aert van der Goesstraat offers additional everyday amenities within easy reach.
The beach at Scheveningen, the boulevard, the harbour and the dunes are all within comfortable cycling distance. The Scheveningse Bosjes, Westbroekpark and Oostduinpark bring green space and nature close to home.
A wide range of sports facilities and clubs is available in the surrounding area, covering football, tennis, hockey, cricket and more, including those near Houtrust.
The neighbourhood has a distinctly international character, partly due to the proximity of organisations including the OPCW, Europol and Eurojust, and a number of well-regarded international schools in the immediate area.
Accessibility is good. The city centre and main railway stations are easily reached by bicycle and public transport. By car, there is a direct connection to the motorway network via the A4, A12 and A13.
