Leyenburg is a multicultural area with a mix of older houses and some newer blocks.

One resident notes: "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." Parking is a common gripe, with one review calling it a "village-like with parking problems." The area is densely populated, with mostly flats and a high proportion of single-person households.

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 Jaarsveldstraat 72, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €285,000 is 17% below the average asking price in Leyenburg (€344,315) and also below the median of €325,000. Given the 63 m² floor area and energy label F, the price is on the low side compared to other homes in the neighbourhood. However, the energy label means higher heating costs, so factor that in.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and you can expect high energy bills. In Leyenburg, 45.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it's worth budgeting for improvements.
Leyenburg has a mix of households: about 29% have children, while 55% are single-person households. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the Zuiderpark is nearby for outdoor activities. Residents describe it as a cosy, village-like area where neighbours know each other.
Parking is a known issue in Leyenburg. Residents mention high parking pressure and that it's a big problem. The home likely does not come with a private parking spot, so you would need to rely on street parking, which can be challenging.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, which is about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. Public transport within the neighbourhood is good, with bus stops nearby.
This is an apartment built in 1951, so it's a post-war flat. The building is likely part of a larger complex typical of the area. The 63 m² floor area is 27% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 86 m².
