The character of the Geuzenkwartier
The Geuzenkwartier is the slightly quieter, residential neighbour of the lively Statenkwartier: a popular, stately residential district just behind the dunes, with characterful pre-war townhouses and upper-floor flats. The two quarters flow seamlessly into one another and share the same pleasant residential atmosphere, with the shops of the Frederik Hendriklaan, culture and the coast within reach.
Location and surroundings
The Geuzenkwartier lies in the Scheveningen borough, up against the Statenkwartier, Duinoord and the international zone by Zorgvliet. The Scheveningse Bosjes and the beach are within cycling distance, and tram line 1 gets you quickly to the centre or the coast.
Living and the property market
The housing supply consists mostly of pre-war townhouses, upper and lower maisonettes and apartments, with characterful details. It is a sought-after residential district in the higher segment, with a firm price per square metre.
The market figures in this guide are indicative and apply to the whole Geuzen- en Statenkwartier area. A specific home’s value depends on location, floor area and condition. Curious what your home is worth? Request a no-obligation valuation.
Who is the Geuzenkwartier right for?
The Geuzenkwartier suits anyone who wants stately, pleasant living close to the coast: families, movers, expats and lovers of pre-war architecture. Anyone seeking a large garden and plenty of greenery will look sooner to a villa district; anyone wanting buzzing city life, to a more central district.
