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 213, 'S-Gravenhage
Yes, it's priced keenly. The asking price is about 25% below the average asking price in Leyenburg (€344,315) and also below the median of €325,000. Given the 66 m² and energy label D, it represents good value compared to other flats in the area.
Leyenburg is a cosy, multicultural area with a village-like atmosphere, according to residents. It's densely populated and has a mix of ages. Parking can be a challenge, but the proximity to Zuiderpark and local shops is appreciated. The neighbourhood scores 7.44 out of 10 from eight reviews.
Lidl is just 351 metres away, about a five-minute walk. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are also within a couple of streets away, at 468 and 518 metres respectively. So daily groceries are very convenient.
The energy label is D. This is common for a pre-war flat. It means the home is not as energy-efficient as modern builds, so heating costs will be higher than for a label A or B home. About 46% of homes in Leyenburg have label D or lower.
The listing does not mention a garden or balcony. The plot size is not stated, so it's best to assume there is no private outdoor space. The flat is in a building from 1936, typical for apartments without a garden.
With 66 m², it could have two or three rooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, bus stops are likely nearby given the dense urban area.
