About Lohengrinstraat 51, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €350,000 is 26% below the neighbourhood average of €476,000, but the apartment is also 26% smaller than the average (77 m² vs 104 m²). Given the G energy label and the compact size, the price is in line with the market, not a bargain, but not overpriced either.
An G label is the least efficient, so you can expect high heating and electricity bills. The home was built in 1950 and likely has poor insulation. While exact costs depend on usage, budget for significantly higher energy expenses than a modern home.
It's a quiet, mature area with many older residents and a high home-ownership rate (86%). The urban density is very high, but the streets are leafy and calm. There are no recent resident reviews, but the low crime rate (58 total offences) and proximity to parks suggest a safe, pleasant environment.
Daily shopping is convenient: Aldi and Albert Heijn are within 600 m, and Jumbo is 700 m away. A GP and a park are both 400 m from the door. Primary schools are about 500 m away, and secondary education is also within walking distance. The train station is 5.8 km away, so a car or bike is useful for longer trips.
With 77 m², it's smaller than the neighbourhood average of 104 m². The asking price per m² is about €4,545, which is close to the neighbourhood average of €4,547 per m². So you're paying a typical rate per square metre, but for a smaller home.
The listing states it's an apartment, but no details about the number of rooms or layout are provided. The floor area is 77 m², which typically suggests a two-bedroom flat, but you would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
