Description
Bright and Spacious Penthouse with Panoramic Views over The Hague and the Coast
This light-filled penthouse of approx. 125 m² was architecturally designed in 1999 and features private lift access and a wrap-around terrace offering phenomenal views and natural light throughout the day.
Designed to follow the path of the sun, the apartment creates a seamless connection between the city skyline and the coastline. A unique architectural gem where light, space, and views come together in a truly exceptional setting high above Scheveningen.
The apartment was designed by the versatile architect Rainer Bullhorst (1946–2021), also known for designing The Hague’s iconic city clocks. His vision is reflected in every detail of this home, where ingeniously placed windows and pagoda-style rings ensure sunlight at every hour and a constant play of light throughout the day.
A home full of character, offering a one-of-a-kind living experience.

Layout:
Via the entrance on Helmstraat, you enter this small-scale, well-maintained complex. From here, you can reach the penthouse directly by staircase or private lift access.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a bright central hallway, illuminated by a ring of overhead windows. This hallway provides access to all rooms.
Double French doors with classic mullioned glass lead you into the spacious living and dining area (approx. 55 m²). This inviting and light-filled space features a luxurious open-plan kitchen with a central island and high-end built-in appliances. The kitchen, laid out in a U-shape, includes a composite worktop, dishwasher, 4-zone induction hob, oven, and combi-microwave.
From the living area, double doors open onto the wrap-around rooftop terrace – a truly unique outdoor space where you can follow the sun throughout the day while enjoying panoramic views over Scheveningen, the city, and surrounding greenery.
On the opposite side of the hallway, you'll find two generous bedrooms. The main bedroom also has direct access to the terrace. The second bedroom is ideal as a guest room, home office, or child’s bedroom.
A modern guest toilet and a luxurious separate bathroom are also accessible from the hallway. The bathroom features a walk-in shower, bidet, double washbasin, and toilet.
Between the bedrooms is a practical utility/laundry room offering plenty of storage space. This room could easily be converted into an additional (bed)room if desired.
