The asking price of €385,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €344,315 and the median of €325,000. However, this apartment is larger than average (103 m² vs 86 m²), so the price per m² of €3,738 is actually below the neighbourhood average of €4,081. That suggests the price is in line with the market when you account for the size.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, about 46% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war apartment.
Leyenburg is described by residents as a cosy, multicultural neighbourhood with a village-like feel. It has older houses, some in need of maintenance, and parking is a known issue. The neighbourhood scores 7.44 out of 10 based on eight reviews. It's close to Zuiderpark and has good public transport.
A Lidl supermarket is just around the corner (155 m), and an Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away (650 m). Several primary schools are within walking distance, including WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla (about a ten-minute walk) and the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Pieter van der Plas School.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bus, tram, or bike to reach it.
Parking is a major issue in Leyenburg, according to residents. Multiple reviews mention high parking pressure and difficulty finding a spot. If you have a car, you should be prepared for this challenge.
How residents experience their neighbourhood
De buurt gaat wel achteruit. Vaak afval bij ondergrondse containers. Veel fout parkeerders. Het is een rustige buurt met al de voorzieningen op loop afstand.
Auto-translated to English by AIAn old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. Unfortunately, a flat was built on Soesterbergstraat many years ago that doesn't fit in with the area at all. The conversion into bedsits hasn't improved the neighbourhood. Parking is a big problem. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though.
Auto-translated to English by AIOlder houses that could use some maintenance. Parking pressure is high. Cosy shopping centres, good public transport facilities.
Auto-translated to English by AIOf course there are always a few people who don't take putting out the rubbish properly seriously. But overall, our neighbourhood is a nice, cosy area. We know our immediate neighbours and help each other when we can. We have a neighbourhood app together where we can share our problems with each other. And warn each other about thieves or vagrants. I am happy with my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in the FNP and there we spend a lot on keeping it cosy and clean. But outside our little neighbourhood it's an antisocial mess. Household items are just put out on the street. Always banger fireworks. Gatherings, with or without laughing gas, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AII think my neighbourhood is the quietest and cleanest in all of The Hague. Everywhere else you find rubbish on the streets, people who can't behave, traffic is a big joke, but in Leyenburg it's completely different. It's clean, quiet, peaceful here, people behave well, there are few traffic jams, and especially no stupid people standing on the bike paths with hazard lights.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood, unfortunately a lot of unpleasant things happen here though.
Auto-translated to English by AIPros: central, good accessibility, good shopping centre. Cons: little greenery, lots of traffic.
