At €550,000, it's the priciest of the 53 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood, sitting 77% above the average asking price of €311,274, so it's on the high side compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
Oostbroek-Zuid is a mixed bag according to residents. One says: 'Very many unsafe situations in my neighbourhood. More police needed.' Another describes it as 'Multicultural friendly neighbours.' A third review is blunt: 'Many homeless people, and cars that think it's a racetrack. Bikes on the pavement, fatbike misery.' Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 6.96 out of 10. It's densely built with mostly pre-war housing, and half the homes are owner-occupied. The neighbourhood Oostbroek-Zuid has a young population, with many 25-45 year olds.
For daily shopping, you've got a SPAR express just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn and Lidl a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like De Parachute and WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla, both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of restaurants and a park within a five-minute walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Elzenaar NVM Makelaars & Hypotheken Den Haag and also appears on Funda.

Very many unsafe situations in my neighbourhood. More police needed.
Auto-translated to English by AIMany homeless people, and cars that think it's a racetrack. Bikes on the pavement, fatbike misery. Little or none. Respect from people. People should just throw their rubbish in the bins. And people here shouldn't put their rubbish bags by the underground container when it's full.

About Soestdijksekade 866, 'S-Gravenhage
At €550,000, this apartment is the most expensive of the 53 homes currently for sale in Oostbroek-Zuid. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €311,274, so this one is 77% above that. However, it's a 1930s apartment with 87 m², which is larger than the average of 80 m². Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the size and the specific location on Soestdijksekade.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 56.3% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area. It's worth considering improvements like insulation or a more efficient heating system.
