Archipelbuurt, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Javastraat in the Archipelbuurt is a rare find: 222 m² of living space in a 1886 building with energy label A. That combination of generous proportions and modern efficiency is unusual for a home of this age. At €980,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €862,555, but the size is 56% larger than the typical 142 m² in the area. For context, apartments in Den Haag in this price range are often much smaller.
The Archipelbuurt is a lively, central neighbourhood with 6,355 residents. It scores a 7.88 out of 10 from three reviews. One resident says: "My experience with the neighbourhood is good, everyone looks out for each other and helps where needed, and that's nice to have." Another notes: "I have lived in the neighbourhood and the same complex since 1983. There is a lot to do in the neighbourhood. Easily accessible by public transport, bike and car." The area is densely built (3,450 addresses per km²) and very urban, with a mix of households: many singles and a fair share of families. For more on the area, see municipality Den Haag.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and another Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. There is also a SPAR express nearby. Schools are a bit further: the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about 3 km away, and secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege are around 3.8 km. A train station is 2.3 km away, so you'll likely cycle or take a bus. The neighbourhood has plenty of restaurants and a park within a ten-minute walk.
