The asking price of €475,000 is 31% below the neighbourhood average of €687,063, which makes it one of the more affordable options in Voorburg Oud zuid. However, the floor area of 80 m² is 34% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 121 m². Compared to other apartments currently for sale, the price per square metre works out at around €5,938, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €5,712 per m². So it's keen on total price but not necessarily cheap per square metre.
The energy label is D, which is average for a pre-war home. In the neighbourhood, 47% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical. A D label means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. It's worth noting that 27% of homes in the area have label A, so there is a mix.
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to The Hague or other cities.

How residents experience their district
It is a nice neighbourhood. The people are real working-class folk. They gossip and love sensation.
Auto-translated to English by AII was born here, the neighbourhood has changed a lot in the past 34 years. In the past, people helped each other, now many divorced people. Greetings are no longer possible, and the biggest problem is the parking issues! And always noise from school, renovations, barking dogs, crying children.

How residents experience their municipality
You can never walk through the park normally without being spoken to or almost being hit by a fatbike on the pavement. A group is taking over the park and apparently no one can do anything about it. Not a safe neighbourhood for my children
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a very soothing neighbourhood with friendly people. It's certainly not easy to reach and many people don't know it, but it's a cosy neighbourhood. The view is beautiful, almost nothing ever happens here, it's close to the countryside and you have many farmers (so always nice fresh products) all in all it's a cosy top neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AIOften loitering figures from the psychiatric institution. No more social control after all the new construction. A lot of greenery removed. Neighbourhood has become an incoherent whole.
Auto-translated to English by AI- one-sided, poorly maintained housing with a low energy label for a large part of the street - a lot of litter on the street and in front gardens/planters - parking nuisance due to inadequate enforcement, especially commercial vans of people who largely do not live on this street / parking on corners and pavements (also trucks) and in the green zone because the vans are too long for a regular spot / broken kerbstones - public transport at least a fifteen-minute walk away - noise pollution from the Utrechtsebaan (A12) / all apartments on the top floor exceed the noise standard
