Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1914 apartment on Valkenboskade sits in the Valkenboskwartier, a lively part of The Hague. With 105 m² of living space, it's a generous size for a flat of this era. The energy label is G, so heating costs will be significant. At €475,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €451,726, but the larger floor area explains some of that. For context, see other apartments in Den Haag.
The Valkenboskwartier is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a mix of residents. Based on five reviews, opinions vary. One resident says: "Very nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible." Another notes: "Quite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach." The area has a high density of addresses, typical of a very strongly urban setting. Most homes are pre-war, and the population is diverse, with many singles and young adults. For more on the area, see the Valkenboskwartier page.
For daily groceries, Ekoplaza is on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is just around the corner. There are also small shops within walking distance. Schools are a bit further out; the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about 5 km away, so you'd likely need a bike or car. The neighbourhood has a good driving school, as one resident mentioned. For broader context on the surroundings, see the municipality Den Haag page.

Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.

About Valkenboskade 177, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is €475,000, which is above the neighbourhood average of €451,726 and the median of €425,000. However, this apartment is 105 m², larger than the average 94 m² in the area. The price per m² works out to about €4,524, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,136 per m². So while the total price is high, you're getting more space for your money.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient, and you can expect high heating costs. The building dates from 1914, and most homes in the neighbourhood (93%) were built before 1945, so poor insulation is common. Only 8% of homes in the area have label A or better.
Ekoplaza is just 89 metres away, so it's on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is 186 metres away, a couple of minutes' walk. There's also a PLUS at 534 metres and a Jumbo at 600 metres. So daily shopping is very convenient.
The Valkenboskwartier is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's a mix of residents, with many singles and young adults. Some residents praise its proximity to the centre and beach, while others mention noise from a busy road. The neighbourhood has a good range of shops and services within walking distance.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bike, bus, or car to reach it. The area is better served by trams and buses for local travel.
The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about 4.9 km away. Other schools like WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla and PCBS Groen van Prinsterer are around 5 km away. So schools are not within walking distance; you'd need transport.
The listing does not mention whether the building is a monument or listed. The home was built in 1914, and many pre-war buildings in The Hague have protected status, but this is not confirmed in the data.
