Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis modern apartment on Maanplein is part of a recently completed development in the Binckhorst, an area of Den Haag that is very much in transition. With an energy label A++, it is exceptionally efficient, so heating costs will be low. At €1,880 per month, the rent is above the neighbourhood average of €1,739, but the home is brand new and well finished. Compared to other apartments in Den Haag, the price per square metre is in line with the market.
Based on two reviews, the Binckhorst is described as an industrial estate with some housing that wasn't thought through. One resident says: "It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." The neighbourhood has a very high density of 3,743 addresses per km², and most residents are between 25 and 45 years old. The neighbourhood Binckhorst is clearly still developing.
For daily groceries, the nearest Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away, and a Hoogvliet and Jumbo are a bit further. There are several primary schools within walking distance: the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school is just around the corner, and KC de Telescoop is a couple of streets away. The municipality Den Haag has invested in the area, but amenities remain limited for now.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Atrium Makelaars B.V. and Funda.

It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.

About Maanplein 114H, 'S-Gravenhage
The rent of €1,880 is above the neighbourhood average of €1,739 and the median of €1,542. However, this is a brand-new apartment with an A++ energy label and 86 m² of space. The price per square metre works out to about €21.86, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €20.12 per m². Given the modern finish and high efficiency, the price is in line with what you would expect for a new-build in this area.
The energy label is A++, the highest possible rating. This means the apartment is extremely energy-efficient, with excellent insulation and likely a heat pump or similar system. Your heating and electricity costs will be very low compared to older homes. The building was constructed in 2024, so it meets the latest sustainability standards.
Residents report that the area can feel unsafe in the evening, with some lights not working and occasional nuisance from reception centres. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 524, which is relatively high. However, the area is undergoing redevelopment, and safety may improve over time.
The Binckhorst has very few amenities. There is a small Albert Heijn, but residents say it is limited. For a full supermarket, you would need to walk about 1 km to Hoogvliet or Jumbo. There are several primary schools within a 10-minute walk, and a secondary school (Gymnasium Novum) is about 800 m away. A restaurant and a childcare centre are within 500 m. The nearest park is 1 km away.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood is very urban, with a high density of addresses, so public transport options are likely available nearby.
The listing does not state whether the apartment is furnished or unfurnished.
