Broker in the
Regentessekwartier
The Regentessekwartier was built since 1884 as an extension district for the Hague's middle classes. That origin is still visible — in the closed blocks, the tall mansions with neo-Renaissance façade details, and the wide Regentesselaan that gives the neighborhood its backbone. But the neighborhood is more than just the architecture. The Regentessekwartier has a vibrancy that was not conceived from above, but has grown from within.
We have been assisting buyers and sellers in the Regentessekwartier for years with knowledge of a market that is more diverse than the outside suggests. From smaller downstairs apartments to wide mansions on the Regentesselaan — we know the nuances of every street in this beautiful neighborhood.

Selling your home in the Regentessekwartier
The Regentessekwartier attracts a broad range of buyers: first-time buyers seeking an urban atmosphere, those moving up the property ladder opting for space and authentic character, and people consciously distancing themselves from anonymous new-build neighborhoods. This diversity of buyers is an advantage when selling — provided you reach the right target audience with the right presentation.
The Neo-Renaissance details of the buildings—facade ornaments, tall windows, rich cornices—are real selling points that distinguish this segment from comparable homes elsewhere. A home in a protected cityscape calls for a presentation that does justice to that historical quality. Through our network of actively searching buyers, we reach people who are specifically looking in this part of The Hague.

Living in the Regentessekwartier
The Regentessekwartier combines a recognisable urban structure with a sense of neighbourhood that stands out. The neighborhood is well-organized, well connected to the center of The Hague, and, with Koningsplein and Regentesseplein, has two anchor points that give color to daily life.
Weimarstraat
Since the late nineteenth century, Weimarstraat has been the central shopping street of the Regentessekwartier, built near the first subdivision around 1884. What was once a classic neighborhood shopping street has developed into a street with its own identity: specialty shops, artisan entrepreneurs and restaurants that consciously chose this location.
Koningsplein and Regentesselaan
Koningsplein is the urban center of the district — the first streets of the Regentessekwartier were laid out here since 1884. The Regentesselaan, named after Queen Regent Emma, is a wide, monumental avenue with closed buildings in the neo-renaissance style. It reflects the ambition with which the district was set up: a representative expansion district for the Hague's middle classes that stood out above themselves.
De Regentes Theatre
In 1920, an indoor swimming pool opened here, which at the time was considered the largest bathing and swimming facility in Europe — an example of urban ambition in an emerging neighborhood. Since 1997, the complex has housed Theater de Regentes, a cultural hotspot with performing arts, events and neighborhood activities. The building is an anchor point for the district's creative and social life.
Protected cityscape
The Regentessekwartier is a municipal protected cityscape. The straight allotment pattern and the closed building blocks from the late nineteenth century have remained almost entirely intact. This protected status guarantees the character of the neighborhood and is a concrete certainty for buyers: what you see stays.
Buying a home
in the Regentessekwartier
The Regentessekwartier offers a varied range of housing: from compact apartments for starters to spacious mansions on the Regentesselaan for families looking for space without leaving the city.
This breadth makes the neighborhood attractive for various buyer groups, and at the same time ensures an active market where well-priced homes quickly find a buyer. The protected status of the neighborhood has practical consequences: changes to the exterior façade are subject to welfare requirements.
As a buying agent, we inform you about what is possible and what is not possible, so that you make an offer with a complete picture. Through our network, you sometimes have access to homes earlier than the broad market:
We will search with you in a targeted manner. Thanks to our deep roots in the neighborhood, we are often the first to know which homes will be available, even before they appear on the major platforms.
We know the actual market value of each street. We negotiate for the best price and check all legal and architectural documents for a worry-free purchase.

Frequently asked questions about the Regentessekwartier
What is my home in the Regentessekwartier worth?
That depends on the street, floor, building scale and the condition of authentic details. The price difference between a terraced house in a side street and a mansion on the Regentesselaan is considerable. A customized valuation gives you a realistic and substantiated picture.
What does the municipal protected cityscape status mean for my home?
Modifications to the outside of your home — such as the façade, frames, dormers — are tested against the protected status and require a permit. This also applies if your home itself is not a monument. As a buying agent, we inform you about the options before you make a bid.
Who is the Regentessekwartier a good choice for?
The neighborhood attracts starters who want to live in an urban way without the anonymity of an apartment building, people who are looking for space with character, and people who consciously choose an authentic neighborhood in The Hague. The variety in housing types makes the Regentessekwartier accessible to a wide group of buyers.
How active is the housing market in the Regentessekwartier?
The market is very active, especially in the segment between 400,000 and 550,000 euros. Well-priced homes are usually sold here within weeks. The higher segment — such as large mansions on the Regentesselaan — has a longer duration but a targeted buyer group.
