It is a fantastically beautiful neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIStatenkwartier is a lively neighbourhood where people who speak many languages live. This makes it a very diverse group of residents. Nature is close by in the form of parks and woodland. Beautiful and truly old houses give it a stately character and create atmosphere. The streets are long and wide with many trees. I feel very safe here, and having the big shopping street of the Fred so close by is perfect! There are also many activities organised for residents, both young and old. The streets are generally quite clean, sometimes some litter but not much. There are also many primary and secondary schools in the area. Accessibility is excellent with trams and buses running very frequently and until late in the evening from the city centre or the beach, very convenient! You can easily manage without a car in this neighbourhood as a couple of two without children. One point for improvement: more space is needed for all the bicycles.

About Paulus Buijsstraat 72, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €550,000 is 41% below the neighbourhood average of €924,967, which makes it look keen. However, the apartment is 25% smaller than the average home in Statenkwartier (117 m² vs 156 m²) and has an E energy label, so the lower price reflects those factors. It's priced to attract buyers who value location over size.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a more modern property. In Statenkwartier, about 32% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war apartment.
The nearest train station is 4.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the neighbourhood has excellent tram and bus connections that run frequently to the city centre and the beach, making it easy to get around without a car.
