An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. Unfortunately, a flat was built on Soesterbergstraat many years ago that doesn't fit in with the area at all. The conversion into bedsits hasn't improved the neighbourhood. Parking is a big problem. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though.
Auto-translated to English by AIOlder houses that could use some maintenance. Parking pressure is high. Cosy shopping centres, good public transport facilities.
Auto-translated to English by AIOf course there are always a few people who don't take putting out the rubbish properly seriously. But overall, our neighbourhood is a nice, cosy area. We know our immediate neighbours and help each other when we can. We have a neighbourhood app together where we can share our problems with each other. And warn each other about thieves or vagrants. I am happy with my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in the FNP and there we spend a lot on keeping it cosy and clean. But outside our little neighbourhood it's an antisocial mess. Household items are just put out on the street. Always banger fireworks. Gatherings, with or without laughing gas, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AII think my neighbourhood is the quietest and cleanest in all of The Hague. Everywhere else you find rubbish on the streets, people who can't behave, traffic is a big joke, but in Leyenburg it's completely different. It's clean, quiet, peaceful here, people behave well, there are few traffic jams, and especially no stupid people standing on the bike paths with hazard lights.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood, unfortunately a lot of unpleasant things happen here though.

About Den Helderstraat 106, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €335,000 is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €344,315 and close to the median of €325,000. Given the 76 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €4,408, which is a bit above the neighbourhood average of €4,081 per m². So it's priced in line with the market, not a bargain but not overpriced either.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. It means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In Leyenburg, 32% of homes have label C, while 45.9% have a lower label (D or worse), so this home is better than many in the area.
