Duinoord is one of the most charming and popular neighbourhoods in The Hague. It lies between the city centre and the coast, combining stately architecture with a lively, convivial character. We regularly guide buyers and sellers here and know its distinctive properties and price development in detail.

Character of the neighbourhood

Duinoord was built in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century on former dune land, from which the area takes its name. It is a neighbourhood with allure, but also with warmth: you will find welcoming squares, terraces and a pleasant mix of residents, from young families to internationals.

Its central location makes Duinoord unique; you reach the city centre, the beach or the surrounding parks by bike in no time.

Properties and architecture

The area is known for its beautiful, monumental buildings with ornate facades, bay windows, stained glass and high ceilings. You will find stately townhouses, generous upper and ground-floor apartments and characterful flats, often in the mid to higher price segment. Sweelinckplein, one of the finest squares in The Hague, forms the stately heart of the neighbourhood.

With this type of valuable, often monumental property, expertise matters. Thanks to our building-surveying and notarial background, we carefully assess the maintenance condition, renovation potential and legal particulars, so you are never caught off guard.

Shops and amenities

Reinkenstraat is the well-known shopping street of Duinoord, with a wide range of specialty shops, fresh markets, supermarkets and restaurants. For everyday groceries and a pleasant terrace, you need not leave the area.

The shops of the city centre and the Frederik Hendriklaan are also close by.

Sport and recreation

Duinoord lies a stone’s throw from the Scheveningse Bosjes and the dunes, ideal for walking, running and cycling. The beach is also quickly reached. In and around the neighbourhood you will find various sports clubs and fitness facilities.
