About De Ruijterstraat 27, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 75% above the neighbourhood average of €657,936, but this apartment is also 49% larger than the typical 104 m² home in the Zeeheldenkwartier. The average price per m² in the area is €6,494, so for 155 m² that would come to roughly €1,006,570, meaning the price is on the high side even when adjusted for size. However, the location on De Ruijterstraat and the period character may justify the premium.
The home has energy label C. This is a middle-of-the-range label, meaning the property is reasonably efficient but not as economical as newer builds. In the neighbourhood, 21.5% of homes have label C, while 25.8% have D or lower. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's worth noting that 77.4% of homes in the area were built before 1945, so older construction is common.
The Zeeheldenkwartier has a total of 749 reported crimes, which is relatively high for a dense urban area. One resident mentions "unfortunately sometimes crime" but also notes the neighbourhood is "beautiful" and "looks promising" with ongoing construction. The overall review score is 7.87 out of 10 based on 5 reviews, so most residents are reasonably satisfied.
Primary schools within a ten-minute walk include De Parachute (about 3 km away) and Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (about 4 km).
