Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Valkenboslaan sits in a lively part of The Hague, with the city's energy right on your doorstep. Built in 1906, it has an E energy label, so heating costs are something to budget for. At €449,000, the price is in line with the average for apartments in Den Haag, though the 78 m² floor area means the price per square metre is slightly above the neighbourhood average.
Valkenboskwartier is a dense, urban area with a very high address density. It's home to a mix of ages, with many 25-45 year olds and a fair number of families. One resident calls it a "Good neighbourhood for families", adding: "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." Another notes it's a "Nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible." A third review is less positive: "unhygienic, it stinks" and "it smells very bad." Based on five reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.75 out of 10. For more context, see the municipality Den Haag page.
For your morning bread, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner. Ekoplaza and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. Schools are a bit further: the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about 4.7 km away, so it's not a quick walk. The neighbourhood has a good number of restaurants and a library within a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including RE/MAX and RE/MAX De Vastgoedspecialist.

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 Valkenboslaan 182, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €449,000 is close to the neighbourhood average of €451,726 for apartments. However, at 78 m², the price per square metre (€5,756) is higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,136 per m². So you're paying a premium for the size, but the total price is in line with what's typical here.
The apartment has an energy label E. This is below the average for the neighbourhood, where about 29% of homes have label A or better. Label E means higher energy costs for heating and hot water, so it's worth factoring that into your monthly budget.
The Albert Heijn is just 75 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Ekoplaza is 277 metres away and Jumbo is 369 metres, so daily shopping is very convenient.
Valkenboskwartier is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's popular with young adults and families. Residents appreciate the proximity to the city centre and the beach, though some mention noise from the main road and occasional unpleasant smells. The neighbourhood scores 7.75 out of 10 from five reviews.
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 closest primary school is De Parachute at 4.7 km, and secondary schools start at around 5.5 km. So schools are not within easy walking distance; you'll likely need to drive or cycle.
