About Torenstraat 71A, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €350,000 is 30% below the average asking price in Kortenbos (€500,148) and also below the median of €425,000. However, the floor area of 72 m² is 33% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 108 m². Given the smaller size and energy label D, the price is in line with the market for a classic city-centre apartment.
The energy label is D. In Kortenbos, 21.8% of homes have label D or lower, while 38.5% have label A. Label D means the home is not the most efficient, so heating costs will be higher than in a modern property. You can expect to spend more on energy bills compared to a label A home.
Kortenbos is very central and well-served. A large supermarket (Albert Heijn) is just 147 metres away, and there are several other shops within a few minutes' walk. The area has a high density of amenities, including restaurants, a GP, and a park. Public transport is good, with a train station 2 km away.
Residents note that parking can be a problem occasionally, which is typical for a city centre. The neighbourhood is very densely built, so street parking may be limited.
The floor area is 72 m², which typically accommodates a living room, one or two bedrooms, and a kitchen and bathroom, but you would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that it is an apartment in a 19th-century building, outdoor space is unlikely but not impossible.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride.
