A spacious apartment in the heart of The Hague
This bright apartment on the Oude Molstraat sits in the middle of Kortenbos, a lively part of the city centre. With 135 m² of living space, it is a generous home for the area, and the 2003 build gives it a modern feel. The rent of €2,875 is on the high side compared with the neighbourhood average of €2,566, but the extra space helps explain that. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price, so this one sits at the upper end.
