A calm spot in the city
This ground-floor apartment sits on a quiet road in the Huygenspark area of 'S-Gravenhage, a part of the city where daily life feels unhurried. The home was built in 2002 and has an energy label E, which means you can expect higher energy costs compared to more efficient labels. With a floor area of 83 m² according to the agent, the asking price of €400,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average asking price of €519,889. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price, but this one sits below the local average.
The home itself
The apartment is a benedenwoning on the first living floor, with two rooms, one bedroom, and one bathroom. It has double glazing and a central heating boiler. The property is held under perpetual leasehold, with the ground rent already bought off, so there is no ongoing lease payment. The HOA fee is €18,800 per year, which is a significant monthly cost to factor in. The living area is listed as 83 m² by the agent, while the BAG registration records 82 m², a small difference between the two sources.
