Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1936 apartment on Driebergenstraat sits in a lively, multicultural part of Den Haag. With 66 m² and energy label C, it's a practical home that needs a bit of TLC, the neighbourhood reviews mention older houses that could use maintenance. At €249,500, the price is 28% below the average asking price in the area, making it a keen entry point compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
Leyenburg feels like a village within the city, according to residents. One says: "A nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city." Another describes it as a "cosy old neighbourhood" with good public transport and shopping centres, though parking is a real headache. The area is densely populated, very strong urbanity, with many single-person households and a mix of ages. It's a place where neighbours know each other and use a neighbourhood app to share concerns. For more on the area, see Leyenburg.
For your daily shopping, a Lidl is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. Primary schools are within walking distance, though secondary schools are a ten-minute walk. The Zuiderpark is on your doorstep for a stroll. The municipality Den Haag offers all city amenities, but the train station is a bit further out, about 3.7 km.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Hooghlanden makelaars and also on Funda.

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 237, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 28% below the average asking price in Leyenburg (€344,315) and also below the median of €325,000. Given the 66 m² and energy label C, it's priced keenly compared to other flats in the area. However, the home is from 1936 and may need some upkeep, as residents note.
Leyenburg is a dense, multicultural area with a village feel. Residents appreciate the cosy shopping centres and good public transport, but parking is a major issue. The population is mixed, with many singles and a fair share of families. It's a place where neighbours look out for each other.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance for a daily commute. You'd likely need a bus, bike or car to reach it.
A Lidl is 328 m away, an Albert Heijn 490 m, and a Jumbo 539 m, all within a short walk. Primary schools are within 0.6 km, but secondary schools are about 1.8 km away. The Zuiderpark is just 0.4 km from the door.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a pre-war flat. It's not the most efficient, but not the worst either. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact amounts depend on usage.
There are 119 homes for sale in the neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €225,000 to €725,000. The average price per m² is €4,081, so this flat at €3,780 per m² is below average.
