I am very satisfied
Auto-translated to English by AIMany fatbikers who run you over or knock the creases out of your trousers, there still needs to be more enforcement on that. Cars racing through the street as if it's Zandvoort! Shared scooters parked everywhere on the pavement. Many residents here are visually impaired; this is simply life-threatening for this group. A trip by ambulance to the hospital costs more than parking that scooter somewhere safe. The housing corporations need to better maintain/insulate the homes for the exorbitant rent they charge! The trees in the street need to be pruned/trimmed. On a gloomy day, we have the lights on by 3 PM, so high energy bills! More activities should be held in the shopping centre. The rents for the shop premises are far too high, there is a lot of vacancy!

About Laurenburgstraat 33, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €285,000 is 29% below the neighbourhood average of €403,850, which makes it a keen entry point. However, the apartment is also smaller than average at 57 m² versus 91 m². The price per square metre works out at around €5,000, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,604 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a bit more per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage. In the neighbourhood, about 38% of homes have a label D or lower, so a C is better than many.
Kom Loosduinen is a dense, urban area with all amenities close by. There are several supermarkets within a five-minute walk, including Albert Heijn and Hoogvliet. Primary schools are also within walking distance. The area has a high address density (4,049 per km²), so it's lively. Some residents mention traffic and maintenance issues, but overall it scores well.
The nearest train station is 6.4 km away, so it's not within walking distance. For a car-free household, a bike or bus would be essential for longer journeys.
The building was constructed in 1928, so it's nearly a century old. The energy label C suggests it has been updated to some extent, but older homes often require ongoing maintenance. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so it's worth checking the condition of the roof, windows, and plumbing.
The listing does not mention a parking spot or garage. In a dense urban area like Kom Loosduinen, street parking is common but may require a permit. The neighbourhood has a high address density, so parking can be competitive. You would need to check with the municipality for permit availability and costs.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that it's an apartment in a pre-war building, it's unlikely to have a private outdoor space. The neighbourhood has parks within a five-minute walk, so there are green areas nearby.
