Bloemenbuurt-Oost, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1921 apartment on Thomsonlaan sits in the heart of the Bloemenbuurt, a neighbourhood with a village-like feel. The 109 m² floor plan is generous for a flat of this era, and the D energy label means you'll want to budget for heating. At €475,000, the asking price is in line with the market, the average in the area is €485,044, and the median is €430,000. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, but this one offers solid space for the money.
The neighbourhood Bloemenbuurt-Oost scores an 8.03 from five reviews. One resident calls it a "beautiful neighbourhood to live, work and grow old", praising its "village-like character" and "lots of greenery". Another says it's "cosy" and highlights the annual Halloween party and the local EBA organisation. The area is densely populated (5,112 addresses per km²) and very urban, but the streets are lined with trees and the architecture is attractive. Most homes are pre-war, and two-thirds are owner-occupied.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and PLUS and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is a ten-minute walk, and there are several others within easy reach. A GP and a park are both on your doorstep, and the Fahrenheitstraat shopping street is close by for practically everything. The municipality Den Haag offers all the city amenities, but here you're in a quiet, green pocket.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Swaneveld Estate. The details are based on the information provided by the agent.

The Bloemenbuurt is a neighbourhood with a somewhat village-like character. Cosy, friendly with a pleasant social character. Beautiful architecture and lots of greenery.
Auto-translated to English by AICould be better. Had some trouble with neighbours recently because I grow cannabis
Auto-translated to English by AII live opposite a school playground, which is very nice for the children to play outside. The Fahrenheitstraat is close for practically everyone, and there are also various sports clubs in the neighbourhood. There is a super fun Halloween party every year, and the EBA (an organisation for the Aucubastraat, Egelantierstraat and Berberisstraat) is great.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a very nice neighbourhood, people generally get along well with each other and you have everything within reach, and if you need to go somewhere there is plenty of public transport within walking distance etc.

About Thomsonlaan 165, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €475,000 is close to the neighbourhood average of €485,044 and above the median of €430,000. Given the 109 m² floor area, that works out to about €4,358 per m², which is below the average of €4,648 per m² in the area. So it's priced competitively for its size.
The energy label is D. That's fairly common for a 1921 apartment, in the neighbourhood, about 32% of homes have label D or lower. A D label means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. It's worth checking the insulation and glazing.
The nearest train station is 5.4 km away. That's a bit of a distance, so you'd likely rely on a bike or bus to get there.
Based on five reviews, the neighbourhood scores 8.03 out of 10. Residents describe it as "cosy, friendly with a pleasant social character" and note the annual Halloween party. One review mentions a cannabis-growing neighbour, but that seems an exception. The area has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not stated, so it's best to assume there is no private outdoor space. The neighbourhood has a park just 0.4 km away for greenery.
With 109 m², it's likely to have at least two or three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
