The asking price of €350,000 is 40% below the neighbourhood average of €584,692, which makes it very keen. However, the floor area of 69 m² is also 46% smaller than the average of 127 m² in the area. Compared to recent sales, the average sold price in the neighbourhood was €476,821, so this listing is priced well below that.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have a better label: 7.7% have A, 15.4% B, and 53.8% C. Only 23.1% are D or lower. So this home's energy efficiency is below average for the area, meaning heating costs are likely higher than in a more efficient home.
The nearest supermarket is Dirk, just 91 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Aldi and Albert Heijn are also within a five-minute walk, at 407 and 425 metres respectively. Jumbo is about a ten-minute walk at 552 metres.

How residents experience their district
Just quiet and friendly
Auto-translated to English by AIJust quiet and friendly people
Auto-translated to English by AII have no opinion on this
Auto-translated to English by AIMost neighbours are friendly. And sometimes have a chat with you. There are two female co-residents who maintain the flower bed... and that is of course very kind. There have been occasional skirmishes, which is of course a bit less pleasant. But overall I feel safe here...

Auto-translated to English by AIDue to the construction work, which has now been going on for a year, our neighbourhood has really gone downhill. Both cleaning, weeds, pollution, street work, parking problems, nothing is being tackled at the moment. As a result, the living pleasure is very poor. Our complaints and reports are not taken seriously by the municipality. The Jeruzalem neighbourhood has become the dumping ground of the shopkeepers. The shopkeepers and Wassenaar Zuid determine everything. Both the layouts, the greenery, the parking spaces, the driving directions, everything is already decided before you can object.

How residents experience their municipality
The neighbourhood is quiet with little contact with the neighbours. It is otherwise relaxed, rich in nature, and of good quality. You are close to The Hague and it's a half-hour drive to Amsterdam. The lack of contact with the neighbourhood has its pros and cons. But it does provide peace. The houses are very closed off from the rest of the street, so there is little contact.
