Frequently asked questions
About Wesselsstraat 378, 'S-Gravenhage
Is €525,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €525,000 is 52% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€346,250). However, this apartment is larger (103 m² vs. 83 m² average) and has an A+ energy label, which only 16% of homes in the area have. The price per m² works out to about €5,097, compared to the neighbourhood average of €4,198 per m². So it's on the high side, but the specs justify a premium.
What does the A+ energy label mean?
An A+ label is the most efficient energy label a home can have. It means the property is very energy-efficient, so you can expect low heating and electricity costs. Only 16% of homes for sale in the neighbourhood have an A+ label, so this is a standout feature.
How is the neighbourhood for daily life?
Residents rate the neighbourhood 7.6 out of 10. They appreciate the many shops, the Haagse Markt, and the good public transport links. Some mention occasional litter around waste containers and parking can be tight. Overall, it's described as a cosy, working-class area with plenty of amenities within walking distance.
What supermarkets are nearby?
A Lidl is just 52 metres away, so literally on your doorstep. A SPAR express is 207 metres away, and an Albert Heijn is about 900 metres away. That gives you plenty of options for daily groceries.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away. That's about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. There are also many tram and bus stops in the neighbourhood for getting around.
What schools are in the area?
Several primary schools are within walking distance, such as De Parachute (3.3 km) and Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer (3.5 km). For secondary education, Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are about 4 km away. The neighbourhood also has many playgrounds and a community centre.
Is parking available?
One resident notes that parking is minimal in the neighbourhood. The listing does not mention a private parking spot, so you would need to rely on street parking, which may be limited. It's worth checking with the agent for specific arrangements.
Experiences from Transvaalkwartier-Zuid
How residents experience their neighbourhood
People keep to themselves, little to no nuisance, only parking is minimal.
Auto-translated to English by AITransvaal is a working-class neighbourhood, which can be very cosy but also very busy. Often arguments due to Eastern Europeans and a lot of rubbish on the street and around the container. Perhaps the warning could also be in Turkish/Bulgarian. The municipality does work very hard to keep it clean. Many amenities in the form of shops with foreign products, the Haagse Markt, etc. Enough schools. There could be more green spaces. Many elderly people live completely alone in a 5/6-room house, while on the other hand entire families have to make do with 1/2 rooms. These elderly people should really be offered a better deal: a smaller home, but without suddenly having to pay much more rent. Plenty of play areas, both for little ones and older children (football cages, for example). The community centre also offers many opportunities for both children and adults. Various activities to keep the youth off the streets. In short, I enjoy living here very much.
Auto-translated to English by AIIn this neighbourhood there are several playgrounds, and many tram and bus stops. So it is easy to reach and there is the possibility to move around quickly if you want to go somewhere and you don't have a front garden. There are also many small shops and supermarkets in the area. Dentists, GPs, pharmacies, shops, supermarkets etc. are all in the neighbourhood (within walking distance). The same goes for primary schools, there are many different primary schools in the area. I am largely satisfied with the community. Especially those on my street and around it. Unfortunately, there is occasionally some litter around the waste containers in the neighbourhood. Overall, I am satisfied with my neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AII grew up in Transvaal from a young age, so I haven't really been able to experience other neighbourhoods, but it's a chill place where everything you need is, besides being behind the centre of The Hague.
