This city villa from 1895 stands on one of the finest avenues in The Hague. Groot Hertoginnelaan is designated as cultural heritage and falls within the international zone of the city. Villa FRISIA rightfully holds the status of protected cityscape.
The location
Duinoord is one of the most sought-after residential neighbourhoods in The Hague, built between 1870 and 1920 as an upmarket expansion district for the so-called "prosperous" citizens. The neighbourhood contains many national monuments and protected cityscapes, with stately villas and townhouses that have largely preserved their original character. The area attracts a mix of families, expats and professionals, partly due to its central location and proximity to shops and international schools. Duinoord has a pleasant atmosphere thanks to its characteristic architecture and spacious layout with abundant greenery. Valeriusstraat, Reinkenstraat and the stately Sweelinckplein are just around the corner. Major roads are directly accessible. Tram lines 3, 11, 17, 21, 24 and 65 stop within walking distance.
The many possibilities of Villa FRISIA
This property is not tied to a single use. The current occupant uses it as a practice space. The zoning plan designates it for residential and commercial use. In between lie dozens of options.
As a residence: The space is there. With four floors, high ceilings, large windows and authentic period details. With a number of internal adjustments, such as adding bathrooms and adapting the layout, this becomes an exceptional city home. The driveway and sunny rear garden with detached garage offer an abundance of space and potential to create a beautiful urban garden.
As a live/work property: The current layout, with a separate side entrance and multiple individual rooms, makes a combination of living and working immediately workable.
As a medical clinic, dental practice or therapy practice: The property is currently still in use as a practice. The layout, the dimensions, the X-ray room still in place and the separate entrances are well suited for medical, therapeutic or paramedical purposes.
As an embassy: The location in the International Zone of The Hague, the distinguished appearance and the size of the property make it suitable for an embassy, consulate or foreign representation.
As an office: Thirteen rooms, four floors, a private driveway, parking on site and in the large garage. For an organisation seeking space and presence in the heart of the city, this is a serious option.
As a development opportunity for apartments: The floors are largely independently accessible. The size and layout offer potential for transformation into multiple residential apartments, subject to the applicable municipal frameworks.
Layout and description of Villa Frisia:
Ground floor
The front door opens into a vestibule with authentic stained glass. A swing door with cut glass gives access to the L-shaped hall. Here you find a toilet with a small washbasin and a staircase to the cellar of approximately 14 m2. The en-suite rooms are partly open to each other. The front room has a fine original ceiling. At the rear lies a spacious room, currently divided into multiple units, with its own side entrance to the garden. Practical for those wanting privacy or a separate entrance. The rear garden faces almost due south. A detached stone garage stands at the back of the plot. The beautiful antique perron staircase to the upper floors is truly the eyecatcher of the villa. Large stained glass window sections fill the space with light.
First floor:
The hall is spacious and light thanks to the side windows. A separate laundry room and toilet are directly accessible. At the front are two large rooms. Between front and rear lies the kitchen. At the rear, a third spacious room. The fourth room is currently divided into units.
Second floor:
High ceilings, a hall with toilet and four large rooms. One room has a balcony. The floor radiates the same quality as the rest of the property.
Third floor:
A generous attic space awaiting a purpose. Bedroom floor, archive, storage or something else entirely. The space is there.
