Oud Scheveningen, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1928 apartment on Drogersdijk sits in the heart of Oud Scheveningen, a neighbourhood that feels like a village by the sea. With 67 m² of living space and an energy label G, it's a home with character that needs some modernisation. The asking price of €369,500 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €527,500, partly because of the smaller floor area and the poor energy rating. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price and condition.
Oud Scheveningen is a close-knit, working-class area with a strong sense of community. Based on two reviews, one resident calls it a "nice working-class neighbourhood" with "pleasant living in a neighbourhood with lots of children." Another says: "It's a cosy neighbourhood and we're always there for each other. It's really the best neighbourhood ever, you can do everything and the people are so kind too, you can do a lot outdoors or go to the city centre." The area is densely built with mostly pre-war homes, and many households are singles or couples without children. The neighbourhood Oud Scheveningen has a lively, urban feel.
Daily life here is convenient. The Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Hoogvliet and Aldi are just around the corner. For schools, De Parachute and Bloemcampschool are a ten-minute walk away, while the Sint-Maartenscollege is a bit further. The municipality Den Haag offers all the amenities of a major city, with the beach and boulevard a short stroll away.

About Drogersdijk 42, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 30% below the average asking price in Oud Scheveningen (€527,500), but the apartment is also 32% smaller than the neighbourhood average (98 m²). The energy label G means higher heating costs, which is reflected in the price. Given the location and size, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small, older apartment needing energy upgrades.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home has poor insulation and high energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war apartment. You would need to budget for significant energy bills and consider improvements like double glazing or better heating.
The nearest train station is 5.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would rely on buses or trams to reach Den Haag Centraal or other stations. The area is well served by public transport, but for daily commuting by train, a bike or bus ride is needed.
Residents describe Oud Scheveningen as a cosy, working-class neighbourhood where people look out for each other. One review mentions "lots of children" and a pleasant atmosphere. The area has a mix of ages, with many singles and couples, but also families. It's a friendly, community-oriented place.
The Albert Heijn is just 69 metres away, so daily groceries are on your doorstep. Hoogvliet and Aldi are within a few minutes' walk. For dining, restaurants are 200 metres away, and a library is 800 metres. The beach and boulevard are also close, making it easy to enjoy the seaside.
Currently, there are 5 apartments for sale in Oud Scheveningen, with prices ranging from €275,000 to €725,000. The average price per m² is €5,702, so this apartment at roughly €5,515 per m² is slightly below average, reflecting its energy label and condition.
