A flat by the sea in Duindorp
This apartment on Tholensestraat sits in Duindorp, a neighbourhood that feels like a seaside village within Den Haag. With 64 m² of living space, it's compact but efficient, and the energy label B means it's reasonably efficient. The last known asking price of €400,000 was on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €345,177 for sold homes, but it reflected the current market for apartments in Den Haag. This home has not been online since 3 September 2026.
Duindorp: social and right by the sea
Duindorp is a close-knit community where people look out for each other. One resident says: "A very social neighbourhood where people look out for each other and help each other. Sometimes people wash each other's cars, repair bikes, spontaneous gifts. Help when something is wrong." The only downside mentioned is a lot of fireworks on New Year's Eve. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many families and a strong sense of community. It's a place where you know your neighbours. For more on the area, see municipality Den Haag.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, the Hoogvliet supermarket is just around the corner, and there's an Albert Heijn a ten-minute walk away. The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is a couple of streets away, and secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege are within a ten-minute walk. The beach and the Westduin area are a major draw, offering plenty of space for walks and fresh air.

Frequently asked questions
About Tholensestraat 43, 'S-Gravenhage
Was €400,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €400,000 was above the average sold price in Duindorp (€345,177) and the median asking price (€455,000) for current listings. However, this apartment was smaller than the neighbourhood average (64 m² vs 86 m²), so the price per m² (€6,250) was higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,211. It's a premium for a well-located flat near the sea.
What is the neighbourhood like?
Duindorp is described by a resident as a very social neighbourhood where people help each other, with spontaneous acts like washing cars or repairing bikes. The biggest advantage is being right on the beach and sea, with the beautiful Westduin area nearby. The only downside mentioned is a lot of fireworks on New Year's Eve. It's a close community with a mix of ages.
How far is the beach?
The beach is right on the doorstep, literally a few minutes' walk. The Westduin area, a large dune and nature reserve, was also within easy walking distance, making it ideal for daily walks or weekend outings.
What supermarkets are nearby?
The Hoogvliet supermarket is just around the corner (134 m), so you can pop out for bread or milk in a minute. There's also an Albert Heijn about a ten-minute walk away (1,080 m) and a Jumbo a bit further (1,212 m).
What schools are in the area?
The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about a ten-minute walk away (610 m). For secondary education, Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are within a 15-minute walk. There are also several other schools within a couple of kilometres.
How is public transport?
The nearest train station was 6 km away, so it was not ideal for commuting by rail. However, there are bus connections in the neighbourhood, and the beach and local amenities are within walking distance. For city centre access, a bike or car is more practical.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The apartment has energy label B, which is good, it means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, so you won't face excessively high heating bills. In Duindorp, only 3.6% of homes have label B, so this is a relatively efficient property for the area.
Is the neighbourhood safe?
