A modern apartment in the Binckhorst
This two-bedroom apartment on Maanplein sits in a neighbourhood that is still finding its feet. Built in 2000 and with an A energy label, it is efficient and well-maintained. At €1,418 per month, the rent was 18% below the neighbourhood average of €1,739, a keen price for a 73 m² home. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, but this one stands out for its value. This home has not been online since 4 August 2026.
Binckhorst: an industrial area with a few houses
Two residents describe the Binckhorst as "an industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through" and "an industrial area with a few houses." One notes: "It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there." The other adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." The area is densely built (3,743 addresses per km²) and has a young population, with many 25-45 year olds. The neighbourhood Binckhorst is a work in progress, with redevelopment underway.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Hoogvliet is a couple of streets away. Primary schools include the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school (a five-minute walk) and De Lusthof (a ten-minute walk). For secondary education, Gymnasium Novum and Sint-Maartenscollege are within walking distance. The municipality Den Haag offers a train station 1.7 km away, but the neighbourhood itself has few facilities.
