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 Heiloostraat 317, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €250,000 is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €344,315, which makes it a keen price. However, the flat is also smaller than average at 54 m², so the price per m² is roughly in line with the local market. It's a good option for buyers looking for a compact home at a lower entry point.
The flat has energy label C, which is average for homes in the neighbourhood, about 32% of homes here have label C. This means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as newer builds but better than older, uninsulated homes.
Parking is a known issue in Leyenburg. Residents mention high parking pressure, and one review specifically notes it as a big problem. If you have a car, you may need to factor in the time and cost of finding a space. Public transport is a good alternative, with bus and tram connections nearby.

The nearest train station is about 3.7 km from the flat. That's a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride. For daily commuting, you might rely more on the local tram and bus services, which are well connected within Den Haag.
