About Nicolaas Tulpstraat 86, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €500,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €451,726 and the median of €425,000. At €4,950 per m², it's also higher than the average m² price of €5,136 in Valkenboskwartier. Given that similar homes in the area sell within about 47 days, the price is on the high side, but the larger floor area (101 m² vs. 94 m² average) partly explains it.
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood (only 40.2% of homes have label D or lower). An E label means higher energy costs can be expected, especially in a 1920s building. You'll want to budget for heating and electricity accordingly.

Very nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible
Auto-translated to English by AIit smells very bad
Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.
