About Wantsnijdersgaarde 601, 'S-Gravenhage
At €225,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Dreven en Gaarden and 42% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €387,750. However, the flat is also smaller than average (47 m² vs 98 m²) and has an E energy label, so the lower price reflects those factors. It's a keen entry point for the area.
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood, 68% of homes for sale here have label A or better. An E label means higher energy costs for heating and electricity, so you'll want to budget for that. The home was built in 1960, so insulation may be dated.
The listing does not state the number of rooms, but with 47 m² of living space, it's likely a one- or two-bedroom apartment. You'd need to check the floor plan with the agent for the exact layout.
Resident reviews are mixed. One says "lots of crime" and litter, while others describe it as "beautiful" and "cosy" with friendly people. The CBS crime total for the area is 572 incidents, but without a per-capita comparison it's hard to judge. It's best to visit at different times to get a feel.
The nearest train station is 4.5 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bus, bike or car to reach it. The area is well served by trams and buses though.
Yes, Albert Heijn is just 53 metres away, on your doorstep. Aldi and Lidl are within 1 km, so daily shopping is very convenient.
