Over the years, this neighbourhood has improved in my opinion. Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is a vibrant park for all ages. The Huygenspark neighbourhood is an extension of the notorious Schilderswijk district. But you don't notice any of that here; up to the level of Holland Spoor station, everything is perfectly fine. Accessibility is top-notch; you're quickly in the city centre, quickly at the train station, and quickly on the tram towards Scheveningen or other places in The Hague. Plenty of amenities; everything you need can be found in the neighbourhood.

About Jan Blankenstraat 2, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is €250,000, which is 51% below the average asking price in Huygenspark (€509,353). However, the apartment is also smaller than average (56 m² vs 113 m²). Given the lower floor area, the price per m² is about €4,464, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,033 per m². So it's priced keenly for a compact city flat.
The energy label is D. In Huygenspark, 29.2% of homes have label A, 12.5% label B, 33.3% label C, and 25% label D or lower. So this home is in the lower half of the energy performance range. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not the most efficient.
