A great opportunity, this extraordinary villa On the edge of the historic centre of The Hague, a unique monumental town house is available for sale. The large, free-standing villa at Plein 1813 no. 4/5 was built around 1860 and has no less than 1,648 m2 in floor space on a plot measuring over 5,438 m2. The building consists of two parts: a main building – number 4 – and an annex – number 5 – in the garden. The large back garden offers a great deal of privacy and ample parking space. All of this makes the building highly suitable as a stylish office building or care institution, stately town house or luxury apartment complex, in combination with care services or otherwise. Such a monumental building at such a gorgeous location and with so many possibilities does not come up for sale every day. Which is why it can justifiably be called a great opportunity.

Stately and stylish
Het hoofdgebouw aan Plein 1813 nr 4 is een monumentale, witgepleisterde villa, nagenoeg rechthoekig van vorm, met aan drie zijden een uitbouw met fronton en attiek. De uitbouw aan de achterzijde is later gebouwd. De villa telt twee verdiepingen en een tussenverdieping. Kenmerkend voor het gebouw zijn de hoge plafonds met sierstucwerk en andere authentieke details zoals rijk bewerkte schouwen. Een prachtig pand met veel grandeur! Bij binnenkomst in de villa valt direct de spectaculaire hal op, met de fraai bewerkte houten schouw, het glas-in-lood-plafond en de prachtige houten trap en balustrade met eveneens mooi bewerkte houten spijlen. De hal biedt toegang tot diverse ruimtes waaronder de kelder. De begane grond meet ca. 446,5 m2 (BVO). Het bijgebouw, dat in de ruime achtertuin van de villa ligt en in gebruik is geweest als kantoorgebouw, is alleen via de tuin bereikbaar. Het ligt verscholen tussen struiken en bomen en is daardoor nauwelijks zichtbaar. Het bijgebouw telt twee verdiepingen en heeft een vloeroppervlak van ca. 262 m2 (BVO).

A location with a rich history Plein 1813 is an historic location. The independence of the Netherlands and the foundation of the Dutch kingdom were celebrated here. The Alexanderstraat and Sophialaan intersect at this location. The square is lined by 36 large horse-chestnut trees and four large villas are located around the square, including no. 4/5. The villas once served as a minister’s home, an embassy and as the private office of the prime minister.
The villa is located in one of the stately neighbourhoods that adorn The Hague, Willemspark. This city district was purchased in the late 18th century by King Willem II, who had a landscape garden and riding stables built in the district. Later, Willemspark was sold to the municipality of The Hague to build a villa district.

A peaceful haven in the middle of the city The villa is located in Willemspark, quietly situated on the edge of The Hague’s historic centre. The location is therefore very convenient, within walking distance from the city centre. The villa is also easily accessible by car from the various roads leading out of town, such as the Utrechtsebaan. Public transport is also nearby: several The Hague city tram lines run past Plein 1813.
The Hague: the vibrant ‘Hofstad’

As a political centre, the city of The Hague is fully modern, but also has a rich past. That can be seen in the historical city centre with its monumental buildings, the Binnenhof with the Ridderzaal, City Hall, the Peace Palace and Noordeinde Palace. The Mauritskade and Scheveningse Veer in Willemspark once formed the external border of the city and formed part of The Hague canal belt. The Hague is also the city of old courtyards, many of which are now listed as historical monuments. The Gemeentemuseum, the Lange Voorhout and the Statenkwartier are true The Hague tourist attractions. The city is home not only to the Royal Family, the Dutch government and Parliament, but The Hague also has an international profile. Most embassies are located in The Hague, as is the International Criminal Court.
All amenities within easy reach

The Hague offers a very wide range of shops, such as the fashionable Hofkwartier, the long Frederik Hendriklaan, the charming Denneweg and the luxurious Noordeinde shopping street. The city also has a large variety of eating and drinking establishments, from Michelin-starred restaurants and hip coffee shops to cosy terraces. Art enthusiasts can enjoy one of the many galleries, art dealers, antique shops and museums such as the Gemeentemuseum and the Panorama Mesdag. The Hague also has plenty of greenery. There are many lush streets, parks and estates, such as Sint Hubertuspark, the Paleistuin and Park Sorghvliet. Located at the edge of The Hague is a large dune area, which is a lovely location for walking and the sea is also just a stone’s throw away.
Limitless possibilities Plein 1813 number 4/5 is uniquely situated at a prime location: in the centre of The Hague, close to embassies, government institutions, shops, restaurants, schools and night life. The building is easily accessible, both by public transport and by car. The zoning plan for Plein 1813 number 4/5 is mixed and therefore offers numerous opportunities. Despite its location on the edge of the centre of The Hague, the building offers a great deal of privacy, partly due to it being surrounded by a large green area. Combined with the ample parking space already available on the property, this makes the building highly suitable for housing an embassy or a stylish office. It also lends itself exceptionally well as a home: in its entirety as a stately private home, or split into several luxury apartments, if desired in combination with care, is certainly among the possibilities. Another possibility is to use the property to house a stylish hotel, optionally with a restaurant and/or bar. The annex in the garden is suitable for various purposes. For example, it can be used as storage space or as an office, but also as living space or a guesthouse. In short: within the current zoning plan the villa can be transformed into practically anything. And that offers limitless possibilities!
