Schildersbuurt-West, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Stortenbekerstraat is a generous 173 m², which is unusually large for a rental in this part of Den Haag.

About Stortenbekerstraat 227, 'S-Gravenhage
The rent is 113% above the neighbourhood average of €1,054, but the apartment is 173 m², which is 394% larger than the average 35 m² in Schildersbuurt-West. So while the total rent is high, the price per square metre (€13) is actually well below the local average of €35. You're paying for space, not for a premium location.
