Frequently asked questions
About Voltastraat 205, 'S-Gravenhage
Is €995 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent of €995 is significantly below the neighbourhood average of €2,400 for rentals. However, this is a social housing unit, so the rent is set according to social housing rules rather than market rates. The floor area of 56 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 107 m², which also contributes to the lower price.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. This is an official registration from EP-Online. A D label is in the middle of the scale, meaning energy costs are likely to be moderate compared to the most efficient homes, but lower than the least efficient ones. The label does not say anything about the condition of the building itself.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 4 km away. This is a reasonable distance for occasional trips, but for daily commuting you would likely rely on other transport options. The neighbourhood is described by residents as accessible by public transport and other modes of transport.

Are there supermarkets nearby?
