About van Halewijnlaan 71, Voorburg
The asking price of €400,000 is 25% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€531,200) and also below the median of €442,500. However, the apartment is smaller than average (83 m² vs 121 m²) and has an energy label E, which means higher energy costs. Given that similar homes in the area sold for an average of €457,200, the price appears keen, but the lower square footage and energy label should be weighed in.
The energy label is E, which is below the current average for homes in the Netherlands. This means the apartment is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it's worth factoring into your budget.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, about a fifteen-minute walk. One resident noted that public transport is at least a fifteen-minute walk away, which matches the data. The area is very urban, so cycling is also a good option.
Reviews are mixed. One resident describes the neighbourhood as cosy and social, with neighbours looking out for each other. Another mentions issues with litter and parking nuisance from commercial vans. The area has a mix of households, including many young adults and families, so you'll find a diverse community.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. The apartment is in a pre-war building, so it likely does not have private outdoor space, but there is a park just 0.3 km away, which is a couple of streets' walk, with a playground and a spot for dog owners.
With 83 m² of living space, it could have two or three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent. The property type is an apartment, so the layout may be compact.
One resident reports parking nuisance due to inadequate enforcement, with commercial vans parking on corners and pavements. The area is very densely built, so street parking may be competitive. The listing does not mention a private parking spot, so you would rely on on-street parking.
