Kortenbos, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. On one of Den Haag's classic streets in the Kortenbos neighbourhood, this 243 m² apartment from 1876 combines period proportions with a B energy label, efficient for a building of its age. At €1,390,000, the price sits well above the neighbourhood average, but then the floor area is more than double the typical home in the area. For context, apartments in Den Haag at this size are rare, so the asking price reflects the exceptional space rather than being out of step with the market.
Kortenbos is a lively, well-connected part of the city centre. With 7,880 residents and a very high density of addresses (8,439 per km²), it is unmistakably urban. Yet the one resident review we have paints a balanced picture: "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 neighbourhood Kortenbos has a mix of households, many singles (3,000 one-person households) and relatively few families with children (805). Average incomes are in line with the city centre, and the area scores well on green space: a park is just a few streets away.
Your morning routine is well served here. Ekoplaza is on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is just around the corner, so fresh bread and groceries are never far. For a wider selection, Jumbo is a five-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out: the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about a ten-minute walk, and the closest secondary school, Sint-Maartenscollege, is a couple of streets away. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of cultural and dining options, with a restaurant just 300 metres away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including The Hague Real Estate Services. The details reflect the current market situation.

About Prinsestraat 17, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 178% above the neighbourhood average of €500,148, but this apartment is also 125% larger than the typical home in Kortenbos (243 m² vs 108 m²). Given the size, central location, and energy label B, the price is on the high side but reflects the exceptional space rather than being out of line with the market.
At 243 m², this apartment is more than double the neighbourhood average of 108 m². Such large apartments are rare in Kortenbos, where most homes are smaller and often older. The extra space is a key factor in the price.
The home has energy label B, which is good for a building from 1876. It means the property is reasonably efficient, with lower heating costs than older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, 38.5% of homes have label A, so B is above average for the area.
Kortenbos is a dense, central neighbourhood with lots of greenery and a mix of residents. One resident describes it as 'good and accessible' with 'communicative, friendly neighbours' and occasional parking issues typical of the centre. It scores 8.13 out of 10 in reviews.
