Uilennest, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Hart Nibbrigkade sits in a leafy pocket of Benoordenhout, where the streets are quiet and the air feels fresh. At 68 m² it is compact, but the layout makes good use of the space. The price of €395,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, 48% below the average asking price of €765,900, partly because the home is smaller than the norm. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in size and price.
Uilennest is a small, well-to-do enclave with a village feel. One resident sums it up: "Super beautiful and city and beach close to home", though they note "there are quite a lot of elderly people living there". The area is predominantly built up in the post-war period (73% of homes date from 1945-1970), and most properties are owner-occupied. With a density of 1994 addresses per km², it is strongly urban but still green, a park is just a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood Uilennest has a mix of ages, with a notable share of residents over 65.
For daily shopping, the SPAR is on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out: the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about a 25-minute walk, and secondary schools are similarly distant. The train station is a 25-minute walk away, so a bike is handy for commuting. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of cultural and leisure options, with the beach and city centre both within easy reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Giesbers Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

About Hart Nibbrigkade 117, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 48% below the neighbourhood average of €765,900, but the apartment is also 45% smaller than the average home in Uilennest (68 m² vs 124 m²). Given the size and the energy label E, the price is in line with what you would expect for a compact apartment in this sought-after area.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a property built in 1952.
The SPAR is just 167 metres away, so you can walk there in a couple of minutes. For a larger supermarket, Albert Heijn is about 824 metres away, a ten-minute walk.
Uilennest is a quiet, green part of Benoordenhout with a mix of ages, though many residents are older. One resident describes it as "super beautiful" with the city and beach close by. The area has a low crime rate (60 total crimes) and a park just 300 metres away.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a 10-minute bike ride. This makes commuting to The Hague city centre or other cities feasible by bike or bus.
The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is 2.7 km away, and secondary schools are around 2.9 km. This is a bit further than average, so you may need to cycle or drive for the school run.
