Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1936 apartment on Loosduinsekade has a classic feel with its original era features. At 87 m², it offers a comfortable floor plan, though the E energy label means heating costs will be something to factor in. With a price of €339,500, it sits slightly above the neighbourhood median of €325,000 but below the average of €344,315, making it fairly priced for its size compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
Leyenburg is an older neighbourhood with a mix of pre-war and post-war housing. Residents describe it as "a nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city," though parking is a known challenge. One resident notes: "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." Another adds: "Older houses that could use some maintenance. Parking pressure is high. Cosy shopping centres, good public transport facilities." The area is densely populated, with many single-person households and a strong urban feel. For more on the area, see Leyenburg.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla and the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Pieter van der Plas School, both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Den Haag offers extensive amenities, with a supermarket, restaurant, and park all within a five-minute walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via DOEN NVM Makelaars & Taxateurs and is also available through other channels.

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 Loosduinsekade 570, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €339,500 is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €325,000 but below the average of €344,315. Given the 87 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €3,902, which is a bit below the neighbourhood average of €4,081 per m². So it's priced in line with the local market.
The energy label is E, which is on the lower end of the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Leyenburg, about 46% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
You have a Jumbo supermarket just 400 metres away and an Albert Heijn about 430 metres, both within a five-minute walk. There's also an Ekoplaza organic supermarket about 700 metres away. For daily errands, everything is conveniently close.
There are several primary schools within walking distance, such as WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla and the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Pieter van der Plas School, both about a ten-minute walk. Secondary schools are a bit further, around 1.8 km away.
The neighbourhood has good public transport facilities according to residents. 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. The home does not include a garage or private parking, so you would need to rely on street parking, which can be challenging.
The neighbourhood recorded 986 total crimes in the latest data, which for a densely populated area of over 17,000 residents is moderate. Residents mention using a neighbourhood app to warn each other about thieves or vagrants, suggesting some awareness of petty crime.
