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 571, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €315,000 is below the neighbourhood median of €325,000 and the average of €344,315. Given the 87 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,621 per m², which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €4,081 per m². So it's priced keenly compared to other homes in Leyenburg.
An F label means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In Leyenburg, about 46% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war property. It's worth factoring in potential upgrades.
Parking is a known issue in Leyenburg. Residents mention it as a big problem, with high pressure on street parking. The area is densely built, so you may need to rely on a permit or search for a spot. It's something to consider if you have a car.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area has good bus and tram connections, as noted by residents.
Yes, several primary schools are within a couple of kilometres, such as WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla and the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Pieter van der Plas School. Secondary schools are about 1.8 km away on average, so it's a practical location for families.
The neighbourhood has 986 reported crimes in the data, but residents generally describe it as a nice, cosy area. Some mention issues with rubbish and occasional theft, but the community is active in looking out for each other via a neighbourhood app.
The apartment has 87 m² of living space, built in 1936. The F energy label suggests older windows and heating.
