Sweelinckplein en omgeving, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1896 apartment on Obrechtstraat sits in a lively part of Den Haag, where wide streets and old trees give the area a stately feel. At 76 m² it's compact but well-proportioned, with an energy label D, typical for a home of this era. The asking price of €400,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because the home is smaller than most in the area. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price and size.

Auto-translated to English by AII hate it here, please get me out.
Auto-translated to English by AII think this is a very nice place to have grown up, it is very accessible by public transport and other modes of transport. Yet there are also small streets where you can play outside. There are a few playgrounds and small parks that are safe for children. And there are enough shops in the neighbourhood that you have all your amenities close by.
