Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1920s apartment on Hendrik van Deventerstraat sits in a lively part of The Hague. With 75 m² and an energy label C, it's a solid home for someone who wants a pre-war feel without the very worst bills. At €325,000, the price is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €451,726, a keen entry point compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
The Valkenboskwartier is densely built and very urban, with over 8,500 addresses per km². It's a young area: the largest age group is 25 to 45, and many households are singles. Reviews are mixed but generally positive. One resident calls it a "very nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible". Another says it's "quite noisy because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood", they mention being close to the centre and the beach. A third review is blunt: "it smells very bad". Based on five reviews, the average score is 7.75. The municipality Den Haag covers a wide area, but this pocket is well connected.
For groceries, you have an Ekoplaza just around the corner, an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away, and a PLUS within a five-minute walk. A Jumbo is a ten-minute walk. Primary schools are a bit further, the nearest, De Parachute, is about 5 km away, so you'd likely cycle or drive. A GP is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is just around the corner. The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so you'd rely on tram or bus for longer journeys.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via MTV Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.

About Hendrik van Deventerstraat 145, 'S-Gravenhage
Yes, it's on the keen side. The average asking price in the Valkenboskwartier is €451,726, and the median is €425,000. This apartment is 28% below that average, which is a noticeable gap. The floor area of 75 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 94 m², but the price per m² works out to about €4,333, well below the average of €5,136 per m².
The energy label is C. That's a middle-of-the-road rating for a 1920s apartment. In the neighbourhood, 22.3% of homes have label C, while 40.2% have D or lower. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient but not modern, you'll have some heating costs, but nothing extreme.
The Valkenboskwartier has a mix of households: about 24% have children, 24% are couples without children, and 58% are single-person households. One resident describes it as a "good neighbourhood for families", though they note it can be noisy due to a busy road. There are primary schools within a few kilometres, and parks are about 1.1 km away.
You have an Ekoplaza 299 metres away, an Albert Heijn at 309 metres, and a PLUS at 325 metres, all within a five-minute walk. A Jumbo is 591 metres away, about a ten-minute walk. That's a good selection for daily shopping.
The neighbourhood recorded 614 total crimes in the latest data. That's a number you'd expect in a very urban area with over 11,600 residents. The reviews don't mention safety as a major concern, one resident says it's "tidy" and "lovely people around you".
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the neighbourhood is very well connected by tram and bus, it's a highly urban area with high address density, so you'll have stops nearby.
The building was constructed in 1920, so it's over a century old. The energy label C suggests it has been updated to some extent, likely double glazing and some insulation, but it's not a modern build. The neighbourhood has 93.1% of homes built before 1945, so this is typical for the area.
