About Slijkeinde 11, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €615,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €538,353 and the median of €425,000. However, the home is a historic apartment in the centre, and prices vary widely in Kortenbos (from €220,000 to €1,925,000). The price per square metre is not directly comparable because the floor area is 98 m², which is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 115 m². So it's on the high side, but not out of line for a central, characterful property.
Energy label F is the second-lowest rating, meaning the home is not very energy efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Kortenbos, most homes for sale have a better label (only 17.9% are label D or lower), so this is a point to consider for running costs. The label is an official registration and does not necessarily indicate the condition of insulation or installations.
Kortenbos is very central and well-served. There are supermarkets like Albert Heijn and Ekoplaza within a few minutes' walk, and plenty of restaurants and cafés nearby (0.3 km). The area is densely built but has greenery, and residents mention friendly neighbours. Parking can be tricky, as is typical for the centre. The train station is 2 km away, so public transport is accessible but not on the doorstep.
The listing states it is an apartment of 98 m², built in 1660. The year of construction suggests historic features, but the condition is not described.
The average price for an apartment in Den Haag is not given, but in Kortenbos the average is €538,353 and the median is €425,000. This home is priced at €615,000, which is above both. However, it is a historic property in the centre, and prices in the neighbourhood range up to €1,925,000, so it is not the most expensive.
The nearest primary school is De Parachute, about 2.9 km away. Other primaries like Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer are around 3.6 km. For secondary education, Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are about 3.7 km away. These distances mean a bike ride or drive is needed.
