Leyenburg has a mixed character: older houses from the 1940s sit alongside some newer blocks. Parking is a known headache here, as several residents point out. One resident describes it as "a nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city," appreciating the neighbourly spirit and a neighbourhood app used to share warnings. Another calls it "cosy" with good shopping and public transport, though noting that older homes could use maintenance. Based on eight reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.44 out of 10. Most homes are flats, and just over half are owner-occupied, with a mix of singles and families. For more context, see Leyenburg.
For your morning bread, Lidl is just around the corner, with Jumbo and Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. Primary schools are a bit further out, the nearest, WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla, is a ten-minute walk. There's a GP within walking distance, and Zuiderpark is on your doorstep for a run or a stroll. The area is densely built up, with plenty of restaurants and a library a short walk away. For a broader view of the area, check out the municipality of Den Haag.

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 Leyweg 432, 'S-Gravenhage
Yes, it's right in line with the market. The median asking price in Leyenburg is also €325,000, and the average price per m² is €4,081. At 66 m², this home works out to about €4,924 per m², which is a bit above the neighbourhood average, but the price itself matches the median exactly, so it's not overpriced.
The apartment has energy label C. That's a decent score, it means the home is reasonably efficient, but not top-of-the-line. In Leyenburg, about 32% of homes have label C, while 46% have D or lower. You can expect moderate energy bills, but nothing extreme.
Very convenient. A Lidl is just around the corner at 489 metres, and both Jumbo and Albert Heijn are a couple of streets away (about 700 metres). There's also a GP and a restaurant within a five-minute walk, so most daily errands are easily done on foot.
The area has good public transport facilities, as residents note. The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance, but bus and tram connections are available nearby.
Yes, parking is a known issue in Leyenburg. Multiple residents mention high parking pressure, and one calls it a 'big problem.' If you have a car, you may need to factor in the time and cost of finding a spot.
Leyenburg is a diverse neighbourhood with a mix of ages and household types. About 27% of households are singles, and 29% have children. The average household size is 1.8 people. It's a densely populated area with a strong urban feel.
The apartment was built in 1950, so it's a post-war property. Residents note that older homes in the area could use some maintenance, but the listing doesn't specify the condition of this particular unit. It's worth viewing to assess.
