A classic apartment in a leafy corner of The Hague
This apartment sits in the Van Stolkpark en Scheveningse Bosjes, a quiet, green pocket of The Hague where the streets are lined with pre-war buildings. The home itself dates from 1906, so it carries that turn-of-the-century character you often find in this part of town. With a price of €345,000, the asking price is keen compared with the neighbourhood average of €2,447,143, and it is the cheapest of the seven homes currently for sale here. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price, but this one sits at the lower end.
Inside the home
The apartment has three rooms in total, including two bedrooms and one bathroom. The living area is listed as 70 m² by the agent, while the BAG registration records 68 m², a small difference between the two sources. The energy label is D, which means you can expect moderate energy costs. The home was built in 1906, a fact that gives it a certain charm but says nothing about its condition.
