Nestled within a magnificent park-like setting, this distinguished semi-detached villa dating from 1926 offers an exceptional combination of character, privacy and contemporary family living. Surrounded by mature trees and beautifully landscaped gardens, the property enjoys a unique sense of tranquility while remaining remarkably well connected to the city and surrounding amenities.
Set on a sunny freehold plot of 1,480 m², the villa offers nearly 300 m² of elegant living accommodation. Its highly desirable location combines the best of both worlds: a peaceful, green residential environment with the centre of The Hague just a 15-minute cycle away. Excellent sports facilities and a selection of renowned Dutch and international schools in The Hague, Wassenaar and Voorschoten are all within easy reach.
From the moment you enter, the home impresses with its remarkable sense of space and light. The expansive living area of approximately 144 m² forms the heart of the residence, where the sitting room, dining room, open-plan kitchen and conservatory flow effortlessly into one another, creating a wonderful setting for both family life and entertaining.
Large windows throughout invite the outdoors in, while the conservatory provides a seamless connection to the surrounding garden. The upper floors offer five generous bedrooms, with the possibility of creating a sixth, together with two bathrooms, a laundry room and extensive storage space.
Rich in original character, the home features elegant fireplaces, original mouldings, ornamental details and panelled doors, all of which contribute to its warm and timeless atmosphere.
A particular highlight is the impressive principal suite. Framed by large windows and opening onto a private balcony, it enjoys beautiful views across the mature garden. The adjoining luxury bathroom, complete with freestanding bath, walk-in shower and infrared sauna, offers the same peaceful outlook, creating a private sanctuary within the home.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped grounds provide an exceptional level of privacy. Occupying a prominent corner position on Persijnlaan, the garden has been thoughtfully designed as a natural extension of the house. Expansive lawns, multiple terraces, mature planting, an integrated trampoline and a private hockey pitch create an outdoor environment that can be enjoyed throughout the year.
A brick-paved driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and includes an electric charging point. In addition, the property benefits from a double garage and covered bicycle storage. A bamboo deck surrounds the house, while carefully positioned lighting enhances the atmosphere of the garden long after sunset.
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family residence where space, privacy, character and nature come together in one of the most desirable residential settings in the region.
