Vruchtenbuurt, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1931 apartment on Vlierboomstraat sits in a lively part of Den Haag, with a mix of families, students and older residents giving the street a friendly, everyday feel. At 86 m² it's compact but well-proportioned, and with an energy label C it's reasonably efficient for its age. The asking price of €400,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €597,581, partly because the floor area is 30% smaller than the typical 123 m² in the area. For context, that price is well below the median of €495,000, making it one of the more affordable apartments in Den Haag.
