Geuzenkwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Sonoystraat sits in the Geuzenkwartier, a pocket of Den Haag that feels a world away from the city's bustle. Built in 1914, it has the high ceilings and character you'd expect from that era, with 103 m² of living space. At €725,000, the asking price is a touch above the neighbourhood average of €680,338, but that's in line with the premium for a well-sized apartment in this sought-after corner of the city. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, so this one sits comfortably in the middle of the market.
The Geuzenkwartier is a compact, family-friendly district with a village-like feel. One resident describes it as a "cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children," though they note that "parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets." The area has a mix of ages, with a good number of families and older residents, and most homes were built before 1945. It's a place where people know each other, and the neighbourhood Geuzenkwartier has a strong sense of community.
For your morning bread run, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there's another Albert Heijn a couple of streets away if you prefer. For groceries, Jumbo and Hoogvliet are also within a ten-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out, the nearest primary school is De Parachute, about a ten-minute walk, and secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege are a bit further. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of parks and restaurants nearby, so you're never far from a green space or a bite to eat.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Dekker Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so you have a couple of channels to explore.

I have the feeling that this small district, Geuzenkwartier, is somewhat forgotten and lies in the shadow of Statenkwartier. Parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets.

About Sonoystraat 30, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €725,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €680,338 and the median of €650,000. However, this apartment is 103 m², which is close to the average size in the area, and it's in a popular pre-war building. Given that similar homes in Geuzenkwartier sell for around €5,998 per m², the price per m² here is about €7,039, which is on the high side but reflects the property's condition and location.
The energy label is D, which is typical for a pre-war apartment from 1914. This means you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home, but it's not the worst, many older homes in the area have labels D or lower. The neighbourhood has 39.5% of homes with label D or below, so this is in line with the local stock.
Geuzenkwartier is popular with families, about 28% of households have children, and there are many young children around. One resident calls it a "cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children." The area has a primary school within walking distance and several playgrounds nearby. However, parking can be a challenge due to narrow streets.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area is well-served by trams and buses that connect to Den Haag city centre and other parts of the city. The high density of addresses (4,248 per km²) means you're in a very urban area with frequent public transport.
In Geuzenkwartier, sold homes spent an average of 37 days on the market, which is fairly quick. This suggests that well-priced homes don't linger. With 97 homes sold recently and only 37 currently available, demand is healthy.
Parking is a known issue in Geuzenkwartier, as one resident points out: "Parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets." The apartment likely does not come with a private parking spot, so you would need to rely on street parking, which can be competitive.
