Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis Weimarstraat apartment in the Valkenboskwartier is a rare find: 132 m² of living space with an A+++ energy label in a 1911 building. The price of €650,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but the size and efficiency are exceptional, only 8% of local homes have an A+ label or better. For context, apartments in Den Haag at this level are uncommon.
The Valkenboskwartier is a dense urban area with a very high address density (8,568 per km²). It's home to a diverse mix of residents: many singles, some families, and a fair number of young adults. One resident 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." Based on five reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.75 out of 10. The Valkenboskwartier is clearly a place with character.
Your morning bread run is just 26 metres away at Jumbo, literally on your doorstep. For other groceries, Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away, and there's another Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. 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 roughly the same distance. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of urban amenities, with a restaurant just around the corner and a GP and library within a five-minute walk.

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.

About Weimarstraat 194, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 44% above the neighbourhood average of €451,726, but this apartment is also 40% larger than the typical 94 m² home in the Valkenboskwartier. The A+++ energy label is exceptional for the area, where only 8% of homes have an A+ label or better. So while the price is high, the combination of size and efficiency is rare.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the Valkenboskwartier, only 8% of homes have an A+ label or better, so this is a standout feature.
The Valkenboskwartier has a mix of households: about 24% have children, while 24% are couples without kids and 58% are singles. One resident says it's a "good neighbourhood for families," though they note it can be noisy due to a busy road. There are primary and secondary schools within walking distance.
Jumbo is just 26 metres away, so you can do your daily shopping in seconds. Albert Heijn is 178 metres away, and there's another Albert Heijn at 412 metres. For organic groceries, Ekoplaza is 621 metres away. In total, there are 84 supermarkets within 5 km.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away. That's about a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride. The neighbourhood is well-connected by other means, with the city centre and beach easily accessible.
The Weimarstraat is a busy road, and one resident mentions the neighbourhood can be "quite noisy because you live next to a busy road." However, the apartment itself is in a 1911 building with solid construction, and the energy label A+++ suggests good insulation. It's worth considering if you're sensitive to street noise.
