Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Vinkensteynstraat 119 in the Valkenboskwartier has a classic 1906 shell but a thoroughly modern heart, it carries an A+++ energy label, which is rare for a pre-war home. At €450,000 for 92 m², the price is in line with the neighbourhood average of €451,726, though the energy performance is exceptional. For context, only 8% of homes for sale in the area have an A+ label or better. See how this compares to other apartments in Den Haag.
Residents give the neighbourhood a 7.75 out of 10. One 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." A third review is less positive: "It smells very bad." The area is densely built with mostly flats (92% of homes), and many households are singles (around 3,555). The municipality Den Haag is known for its mix of urban energy and green spaces.
For groceries, you have a Jumbo and an Albert Heijn both just around the corner, and another Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. Schools are a bit further, the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about a ten-minute walk, and the closest secondary school, Sint-Maartenscollege, is a similar distance. A GP is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is just around the corner. The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so you'd likely cycle or take a bus.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including De Gratis Verkoop Makelaars and on Pararius.

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.
