The asking price of €400,000 is about 25% below the average asking price in the Bomenbuurt (€530,808) and also under the median of €419,000. Given the 99 m² floor area, that works out to roughly €4,040 per m², while the neighbourhood average per m² is €5,013. So it's priced on the low side compared to other homes currently for sale in the area.
The apartment has energy label D. That's typical for a home built in 1935, most homes in the Bomenbuurt (74%) have a label D or lower. A D label means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs than a modern home. It's worth checking the specific insulation and glazing when you view the property.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. That's a reasonable distance for commuting, though not within walking distance for everyone.
There are several primary schools within a couple of kilometres. The closest are KC de Telescoop (1.8 km) and the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school (1.9 km). For secondary education, the nearest school is about 1.9 km away. All are within a 20-minute walk or a short cycle.
The nearest supermarket is an AH to go at 540 metres, followed by a full Albert Heijn at 703 metres. There's also an Ekoplaza and an Aldi within about a kilometre. So daily groceries are easily done on foot or by bike.

How residents experience their district
Very bad, impoverished neighbourhood, junkies, antisocial people who throw their rubbish on the street and in communal gardens instead of in the bins, foreigners from Poland, Turkey, Africa, etc. and more. Send all these people back where they came from. This neighbourhood is getting worse and worse. There are also stolen bikes here. Few parking spaces, but too many trees on the street. I don't dare walk the streets in the evening. Enforcement officers should actually check every day/evening.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood close to shops and public transport, plenty of play areas for children. Lots of greenery in and around the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood where you can easily make contact with neighbours. Good accessibility to the centre of The Hague and Rotterdam.

How residents experience their municipality
It's so clean and Kessler Park is also so relaxing, I never want to move again.
Auto-translated to English by AII live there pleasantly and quietly
Auto-translated to English by AII am very happy with where I live. Easily accessible and shops nearby. But it is very safe here. I see too often messages that someone has been stabbed or beaten up.

Auto-translated to English by AII have lived here for over 9 years, and I like the neighbourhood. It could be better, of course, because there are many "smart alecks" who cut across the Generaal Spoorlaan, and who fly through the neighbourhood like a cannonball. Other than that, it's okay, and I'm satisfied here.
