Auto-translated to English by AICould be better. Had some trouble with neighbours recently because I grow cannabis
Auto-translated to English by AII live opposite a school playground, which is very nice for the children to play outside. The Fahrenheitstraat is close for practically everyone, and there are also various sports clubs in the neighbourhood. There is a super fun Halloween party every year, and the EBA (an organisation for the Aucubastraat, Egelantierstraat and Berberisstraat) is great.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a very nice neighbourhood, people generally get along well with each other and you have everything within reach, and if you need to go somewhere there is plenty of public transport within walking distance etc.

About Begoniastraat 240, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €395,000 is 25% below the neighbourhood average of €524,512, and also below the median of €495,000. The floor area of 73 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 108 m², which partly explains the lower price. Given the compact size and the energy label F, the price is keen compared to other homes in Bloemenbuurt-Oost.
Energy label F is one of the least efficient labels, so you can expect relatively high energy costs. The label is an official registration and does not necessarily indicate poor insulation, it could be due to the heating system or ventilation. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have a better label, so this is something to factor into your budget.
