Archipelbuurt, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Celebesstraat sits in the Archipelbuurt, a sought-after pocket of Den Haag where tree-lined streets and stately 19th-century architecture set the tone. At 83 m² it's compact by neighbourhood standards, but the energy label A means low running costs. The asking price of €725,000 is 16% below the average in the area, which makes it a keen proposition compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
The Archipelbuurt is a tight-knit community with a mix of ages and households. Based on three reviews, residents appreciate the friendly atmosphere: "everyone looks out for each other and helps where needed," says one. Another, who has lived here for 40 years, notes "the living pleasure and affordable housing." The area is densely built (3,450 addresses per km²) and very urban, yet it feels cosy and accessible. Many families and older residents call it home, and the streets are lively without being noisy. Neighbourhood Archipelbuurt has a strong sense of community.
Your daily routine is well served here. For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with another a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is a ten-minute walk, and several secondary schools are within a short cycle. The neighbourhood has plenty of restaurants and a park within walking distance, so weekend strolls and spontaneous dinners are easy. The municipality Den Haag keeps the area well maintained, with good public transport links and a train station a couple of kilometres away.
