Okkernootstraat 146

Affordable living with surprisingly generous outdoor space? This charming ground-floor apartment combines character, a convenient location, and a garden that would make many family homes envious.

Situated in a quiet, leafy residential street just around the corner from Thorbeckelaan, this charming 2/3-room ground-floor apartment features both a delightful front garden and an exceptionally deep, sunny rear garden. What truly sets this property apart is its outdoor space: both gardens provide ample opportunity to enjoy the sun, peace, and greenery throughout the day. With a rear garden that is even larger than the apartment’s internal living area, this is a rare opportunity for gardening enthusiasts, outdoor entertainers, or anyone who simply enjoys spending time outside with family and friends.

The property enjoys a highly convenient location with virtually every amenity within easy reach. The popular shops, cafés, and restaurants of the Vruchtenbuurt, Appelstraat, and Vlierboomstraat are all within walking distance. Shopping centres such as Savornin Lohmanplein, Leyweg, and Volendamlaan are also nearby. Sports enthusiasts are well catered for, with football and hockey clubs, swimming pool De Waterthor, sports centre De Boetzelaer, various martial arts schools, and the recreational centre De Uithof all located in the immediate vicinity.

Nature and recreation are equally close at hand. The green areas of Madestein, Bosjes van Pex, and the Ockenburgh Estate offer excellent opportunities for walking, exercising, or simply escaping the bustle of city life. In addition, the dunes, beach, and promenade of Kijkduin can be reached within approximately 15 minutes by bicycle.

Public transport connections are excellent, with tram lines 2 and 3 and bus line 23 within walking distance, providing direct access to The Hague city centre and The Hague Central Station. Major roads towards the A4, A12, and A13 motorways are also easily accessible.

LAYOUT
Front garden, entrance to the apartment via an open porch.
Entrance hall with two built-in storage cupboards. Attractive en-suite living room with a front and rear reception room, separated by beautiful stained-glass sliding doors and original built-in cabinets.
The rear room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which currently serves as a cosy eat-in kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances, including an oven, induction hob, Quooker boiling-water tap, dishwasher, and refrigerator. From the kitchen there is direct access to the rear garden.
The centrally located bathroom is fitted with a corner bath with shower, toilet, and washbasin.
At the rear of the apartment is the bedroom, which also enjoys direct access to the garden.

Without a doubt, the greatest surprise of this home is the beautifully landscaped rear garden of approximately 13.5 metres deep, facing southeast. Thanks to its depth and favourable orientation, there is almost always a sunny or shaded spot to be found. At the rear of the garden stands a wooden chalet with electricity, ideal as a hobby room, home office, studio, or additional storage space.
The property has been well maintained, although certain elements are somewhat dated. For some buyers, this presents an excellent opportunity to add their own style and personal touches immediately. Others may simply enjoy living here comfortably for many years before considering any modernisation.
