Geuzenkwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis compact apartment on Van Egmondstraat sits in the Geuzenkwartier, a small neighbourhood that feels a bit overlooked compared to the better-known Statenkwartier. At €255,000 it is the cheapest of the 37 homes currently for sale in the area and 63% below the average asking price of €680,338, a keen entry point into Den Haag. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, but this one is priced to sell quickly.
One resident describes it as a "Cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children." They add: "I have the feeling that this small district, Geuzenkwartier, is somewhat forgotten and lies in the shadow of Statenkwartier. Parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets." Based on one review, the neighbourhood scores 8.67 out of 10. The area is densely built with mostly pre-war homes (97% built before 1945) and a mix of families and singles. The neighbourhood Geuzenkwartier is very urban, with over 4,200 addresses per square kilometre.
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Jumbo and Hoogvliet a couple of streets away. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and several restaurants are within a five-minute walk. Primary schools are a ten-minute walk away, and secondary schools are a bit further. The municipality Den Haag offers all city amenities, though the train station is 5.2 km away, a short cycle or bus ride.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Dekker Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

About Van Egmondstraat 23, 'S-Gravenhage
At €255,000 it is the cheapest home currently for sale in Geuzenkwartier and 63% below the neighbourhood average of €680,338. However, the floor area is 55 m², which is 53% smaller than the average of 116 m². Given the compact size and energy label G, the price is in line with what you would expect for a small, older apartment in this part of Den Haag.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home has poor insulation and high heating costs are to be expected. In the neighbourhood, 39.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war apartment. You should budget for significant energy bills.
Geuzenkwartier has many young children and a cosy feel, according to one resident. About 28% of households have children, and there are primary schools within a ten-minute walk. However, parking is a known problem due to narrow streets. The area is very urban with a high density of addresses.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a bike or bus to reach it.
At 55 m², this apartment is 53% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 116 m². It is a compact living space, typical for a pre-war apartment in this price range. The average price per square metre in Geuzenkwartier is €5,998, so this home is priced below that average.
Parking is a real problem, as noted by a resident. The streets are narrow and spaces are limited. You would need to rely on street parking or consider alternative arrangements. The listing does not mention a garage or dedicated parking spot.
