Kortenbos, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment sits on Noordeinde, one of The Hague's most distinguished streets, lined with galleries, antique shops and royal palaces. At 144 m² it is unusually spacious for a rental in the city centre. The energy label A means it is efficient to heat, a rare find in a 1912 building. At €2,895 per month, the price is above the neighbourhood average of €2,550, but the size and location justify it. For context, this is one of the larger apartments in Den Haag currently available.
Kortenbos is a compact neighbourhood just north of the city centre, with a mix of stately 19th-century buildings and modern flats. It is densely populated, over 8,400 addresses per km², yet residents appreciate the greenery. One resident says: "Good and accessible, occasionally parking problems but that is to be expected for the centre. Furthermore, a neighbourhood with lots of greenery and generally communicative, friendly neighbours. Definitely recommended to live here." The area has many single-person households (3,000 out of 4,740 homes) and a young population, with the largest age group being 25 to 45. This is the Kortenbos neighbourhood in a nutshell: urban, lively, but with a village-like community feel.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away, and Ekoplaza is just around the corner for organic groceries. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including De Parachute (about a ten-minute walk) and a Protestant Christian school a bit further out. Secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege are a longer walk or short cycle. The neighbourhood falls under the municipality of Den Haag, which maintains the many parks and squares nearby, the nearest park is a couple of streets away.

About Noordeinde 148A, 'S-Gravenhage
The rent is above the neighbourhood average of €2,550 and the median of €2,400. However, at 144 m² it is larger than the average rental (172 m² in the neighbourhood, but that includes smaller units). The price per m² works out to about €20.10, which is below the neighbourhood average of €24.42 per m². So while the total rent is high, you are getting good value for the space.
Kortenbos is a central, green neighbourhood with a high density of residents. It has many singles and young professionals, but also families with children. Residents mention friendly neighbours and good accessibility, though parking can be tricky, typical for a city centre. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and parks within walking distance.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means heating costs will be relatively low compared to older buildings with lower labels. The building dates from 1912, so the label A suggests significant modernisation has been done.
