Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Cartesiusstraat in the Valkenboskwartier has a G energy label, which means high heating costs to expect. At €350,000, the asking price is 23% below the neighbourhood average of €451,726, making it a keenly priced entry into the area. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price.
The Valkenboskwartier is densely built and very urban, with over 8,500 addresses per square kilometre. It's a neighbourhood of contrasts: one resident calls it a "Nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible," while another complains it's "unhygienic, it stinks." A third review notes it's "Quite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood." The area has many single-person households and a mix of ages, with a large share of pre-war housing. The municipality Den Haag is known for its diverse districts.
For groceries, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Ekoplaza a couple of streets away and Jumbo a five-minute walk. Schools are further out: the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about 4.6 km away, so you'd likely need a bike or car for the school run. A GP and a restaurant are both on your doorstep, and a library is a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Onesta Vastgoed. The listing is available on multiple platforms.

Very nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible
Auto-translated to English by AIit smells very bad
Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.

About Cartesiusstraat 258, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €350,000 is 23% below the average asking price in the Valkenboskwartier (€451,726). Given the 76 m² floor area and G energy label, the price is on the low side for the neighbourhood, but the poor energy efficiency and pre-war construction (1911) may offset that. The median sold price in the area is €425,000, so this is a relatively affordable option.
The Valkenboskwartier is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. Residents give mixed reviews: some appreciate the proximity to the centre and accessibility, while others mention noise from a busy road and unpleasant smells. It's a diverse neighbourhood with many singles and a mix of ages. The area has a high crime rate (614 total offences), which is something to consider.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus, or car to reach it. The distance is given in the data, but the station name is not specified.
An Albert Heijn supermarket is just 176 metres away, with an Ekoplaza at 264 metres and a Jumbo at 508 metres. A restaurant is 200 metres away, and a GP is 400 metres. A library is 600 metres away. Schools are further: the nearest primary school is 4.6 km away.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and will have high heating costs. The neighbourhood has 40.2% of homes with label D or lower, so this is common for pre-war buildings. You should expect significant energy bills.
