I've been living in Houtwijk for a while now and overall I'm very satisfied with the neighbourhood. What I particularly experience as positive are the people here. The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street. The area is also clean and well-maintained, which gives a nice and cared-for feeling. Moreover, it feels very safe here; I feel at ease in the surroundings at any time of day. What I find less pleasant is the accessibility of Houtwijk by public transport. There are buses and trams, but the service is limited and connections to other parts of the city are sometimes a bit cumbersome or time-consuming. This makes it difficult for people without a car to get to other places quickly. All in all, I think Houtwijk is a nice and quiet place to live, especially because of the friendly neighbours, the cleanliness and the feeling of safety. Hopefully public transport will be better organised in the future.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other. All amenities are close by. Actually, this is the perfect neighbourhood. Everyone neatly cleans up the mess on the street, the houses are beautiful and well-insulated, green spaces are next to the centre which is also nice and spacious. Moreover, there is plenty to do for the children. Accessibility by both public transport and car is fine.

About John Rädeckerkade 57, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €275,000 is 41% below the average asking price in Houtwijk (€464,000) and also below the median of €495,000. Given the 83 m² floor area and energy label B, this is a keen price compared to other apartments in the neighbourhood. However, the home is listed at the lower end of the local market, so it may attract interest.
Houtwijk is a quiet, green residential area with a strong sense of community. Residents describe it as safe, clean and well-maintained, with friendly neighbours. The main downside mentioned is limited public transport connections and a lack of shops immediately nearby.

Two supermarkets are just around the corner: Lidl at 239 metres and Albert Heijn at 245 metres. For a wider choice, another Albert Heijn is about a ten-minute walk away. Daily groceries are very convenient.
The home has energy label B, which is efficient. In Houtwijk, 36% of homes have label A and 19% label B, so this apartment is above average for efficiency. You can expect moderate energy costs without the high bills associated with older labels.
Currently there are 37 homes for sale in Houtwijk, with prices ranging from €200,000 to €895,000. The average price per square metre is €4,428. This apartment at €3,313 per m² is well below that average.
