About Hazelaarstraat 23, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 69% above the neighbourhood average of €370,451, but the apartment is also 35% larger than the average home in the Heesterbuurt (107 m² vs 79 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €5,841, which is above the neighbourhood average of €4,750. Given the size and the fact that it is a pre-war apartment in a sought-after area, the price is on the high side but reflects the larger floor area.
The energy label is C. This is a fairly typical rating for a home built in 1919. A C label means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the Heesterbuurt, 42.5% of homes have label C, and another 42.5% have label D or lower, so this home is in line with the neighbourhood.
The nearest train station is 4.6 km away. That is a bit of a distance, so you would likely rely on a bike, bus or car for train travel.
The CBS data records 284 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita figure or context it is hard to judge. The Heesterbuurt is a dense urban area, so some level of activity is normal. For a detailed picture, you could check local crime maps.
The nearest park or public garden is 1.1 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That is a reasonable distance for a city neighbourhood. There are also several restaurants and a library within walking distance.
The floor area of 107 m² suggests it could have two or three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
