AN OWN PLACE IN THE HEART OF THE HAGUE
The Benoordenhout district of The Hague is one of the city's most beautiful neighbourhoods, yet very close to the heart of this fascinating city. Ruychrocklaan border, the beautiful peaceful Park Clingendael and the Bosjes van Zanen. Two of the main features of Clingendael are the stately home and the famous Japanese Garden that dates back more than 100 years.

Access to the Bosjes and thus to Clingendael is through a gate located 100 m from the property. The area around Ruychrocklaan 238 also contains many houses of great architectural value, dating from the beginning of the last century. Ruychrocklaan itself contains a number of villas designed by New Hage School architect Co Brandes. On the parallel Van Ouwenlaan is a pair of villas by world-famous modernist architect and furniture maker Gerrit Rietveld. However, it is with the neighbouring villa, on Van Soutelandelaan, that Ruychrocklaan 238 is most intimately involved.

This neighbouring villa was built in 1937 as the residence of the well-known architect and proponent of New Dutch Functionalism, J.B. van Loghem. The design of the new building 238 was inspired by the Van Loghem villa, which has since become a national monument. The context of 'new construction' is reflected in the choice of building materials - the building has a white stucco exterior, walls of glazed brick, steel window frames and an open living space.
