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 Driebergenstraat 162, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 16% below the average asking price in Leyenburg (€344,315) and also below the median of €325,000. Given the 69 m² floor area and energy label F, the price is competitive for a flat in this neighbourhood, though the low energy label means higher running costs.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and you can expect high heating bills. In Leyenburg, 45.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it is something to budget for.
Residents describe it as a cosy, multicultural area with a village feel. Parking is a known issue, but the neighbourhood is close to Zuiderpark and has good public transport. The average review score is 7.44 out of 10 from eight reviews.
Supermarkets within a five-minute walk include Lidl, Albert Heijn, and Jumbo. The nearest primary school is WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla, about a ten-minute walk away. Secondary schools are further, at 1.8 km distance.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it is not within walking distance. However, tram and bus stops are closer, making public transport accessible.
Parking is a major issue in Leyenburg, as noted by residents. The area is densely built with many cars, so finding a spot can be difficult. The home does not come with a private parking space.
