About Ruinerwoldstraat 56, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €249,500 matches the median price in Morgenstond-Zuid exactly. The average price per m² is €4,208, and this flat works out at €3,838 per m², so it's slightly below average. Given that similar flats in the area have sold for an average of €268,546, the price seems reasonable.
Energy label F means the flat is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 30% of homes have label C, and another 30% have D or lower, so F is on the lower end. It's worth factoring in potential costs for improvements.
Reviews mention concerns: one resident says it's 'dangerous because a few months ago a man was shot in the head a few houses down' and notes frequent break-ins. The total number of crimes in the area is 555, but without context it's hard to compare. It's best to visit the street at different times to get a feel.
The nearest train station is 3.2 km away, which is about a 40-minute walk or a short bus ride.
Yes, several primary schools are within a couple of kilometres. The closest is WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla at about 2 km, followed by PCBS Pieter van der Plas School at 2.3 km. Secondary schools are a bit further, at 1.3 km on average.
