Symonszstraat, 41, 'S-GRAVENHAGE, South Holland 2584 CW

Are you an expat in search of a home for your family, but also for extended family and friends when they come to visit? Also, are you looking for a home with comfort and ample living space, indoor parking and a large patio? This apartment ticks all the boxes. It offers everything you need for spending quality time with your family and friends, whether they live close by or come from far and away. It is equally suited for professional events such as hosting international business clients. With plenty of indoor space that includes a well-equipped kitchen and a wet bar, it is an ideal venue for socializing at the dinner table or simply in front of the fireplace. To make the most of beautiful weather while entertaining, several French doors open up to an outdoor living area. The generously sized space allows for barbecue facilities and to indulge in dinner and drinks under the evening stars. The patio with its beautiful tiles and light fittings is an oasis of tranquility with much privacy and an exotic feel. The outdoor area measures almost 75 m2 including a recessed terrace reminiscent of a loggia adjacent to the apartment upper floor. On the upper floor are the bed- and bathrooms, away from the downstairs buzz, but the landing nonetheless stops at a railing from which you can take a look at what is happening by the fireplace or how cooking is progressing in the kitchen. The partly open landing floor enables a great flow of natural light reaching the floor below. The property is conveniently located to public transport and international schools. Other amenities, equally within walking distance, are the many shops on the long stretch of Frederik Hendriklaan, food festivals next to the rose garden in Westbroekpark, and beach bars along the seaside boulevard of Scheveningen. Another feature of convenience is the private indoor garage as it saves the owner from the many hassles of urban street parking. The 26 m2 large garage (not counting custom-made storage and wardrobes) is spacious enough for one car, a few bicycles, and perhaps a surfing board or two. Layout Ground Floor:Entrance with mailbox and intercom (video phone) through the kitchen area as well as through the private indoor garage. Entry through the garage brings you to one end of the indoor living area. Once inside, the sheer volume of it is striking, largely due to the ceiling height of 3.2 meters extending in part up to 7 meters. Yet the immediate feeling is a warm atmosphere as created by fine craftsmanship, and not least, by the exquisite use of colors. The vastness of indoor space is mirrored by a delightful patio that is visible through several pairs of French doors. To the right, all the way across the living room, in between the wet bar and the kitchen, is a huge but snug fireplace crafted in a modern design. A cooking island separates the living area from the kitchen, which is equipped as follows: a Quooker boiling water tap, an induction stove, two Kpperbusch ovens (a microwave and a regular), a fridge and a freezer both AEG, a Le Chai wine cooler and a copper Wave extractor hood, as well as plenty of storage for glassware, porcelain, cutlery and kitchen utilities. Layout Upper Floor:The upper floor is reached via a wooden staircase and takes you to a sizeable landing which connects a laundry space, a separate toilet, two bathrooms and four rooms. Due to the large size of the rooms, they may all be set up as bedrooms, alternatively for other purposes, e.g., home office, library, game room. The bathrooms are tastefully tiled, have underfloor heating, and are furnished with built-in taps and rainfall showerheads for ultimate indulgence. The master bedroom has an en-suite facility conceived for moments of wellness and relaxation and on the opposite side of the room are two separate rows of custom-made wardrobes. From here is the exit to the covered built-in terrace (overlooking the patio) large enough for a pair of sun loungers and a jacuzzi for which connections a
