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 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 67, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €289,000 is 16% below the average asking price in Leyenburg (€344,315) and also below the median of €325,000. Given the 73 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,959 per m², which is slightly under the neighbourhood average of €4,081 per m². So it's priced keenly for the area.
The home has energy label E. That means it's not very efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a more modern home. In Leyenburg, about 46% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area's older housing stock.
Parking is a known issue in Leyenburg. Residents mention it as a big problem, with high parking pressure. The home is on Den Helderstraat, so you'll want to factor in the challenge of finding a spot if you have a car.
Jumbo and Albert Heijn are both within a couple of streets away (about 370-380 m). There's also an Ekoplaza about 700 m away. So daily groceries are very convenient.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance but is reachable by bus or bike. The area has good public transport facilities according to residents.
It's an apartment built in 1935, so it's a pre-war flat. The building is part of the older housing stock that characterises much of Leyenburg.
