Geuzenkwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Willem de Zwijgerlaan sits in the Geuzenkwartier, a small neighbourhood that feels a bit tucked away next to the better-known Statenkwartier. At 55 m² it's compact, but the high ceilings and classic 1914 proportions give it character. The asking price of €425,000 is notably lower than the neighbourhood average, partly because of the size, partly because this is a more modest part of the area. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely in price, so this one is on the affordable side.
The neighbourhood Geuzenkwartier is a dense, urban pocket with narrow streets and a real community feel. One resident describes it as a "cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children", though they also note that parking is a real problem. The area is very strongly urban (over 4,200 addresses per km²), and most homes were built before 1945. It's a mix of families and singles, with average household sizes around 2.0. The only review gives it an 8.7, so those who live here clearly appreciate the atmosphere.
For your morning bread and groceries, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Hoogvliet and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. Schools are a bit further out, the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about a ten-minute walk, and secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege are a bit further. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of restaurants and a park within a couple of streets away, so you won't be short of places to unwind.
At the time of writing the home is listed via De Haagsche Makelaar and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

I have the feeling that this small district, Geuzenkwartier, is somewhat forgotten and lies in the shadow of Statenkwartier. Parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets.

About Willem de Zwijgerlaan 128A, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 38% below the average asking price in the Geuzenkwartier (€680,338), but the flat is also 53% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 116 m². Given the compact size and the fact that it's a pre-war apartment without a garden, the price seems in line with what you'd expect for a 55 m² flat in this part of The Hague.
Residents describe it as a cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children, though parking is a real problem due to the narrow streets. It's a very urban area with a mix of families and singles, and most homes date from before 1945. The only review gives it an 8.7 out of 10, so those who live there are generally happy.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bike, bus or car to reach it.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not as good as modern standards. You can expect moderate energy costs, but no exact amounts are given in the listing.
Yes, a park or public garden is just 0.3 km away, so it's a couple of streets away. The area is urban but has some green spots to enjoy.
Parking is a real problem, according to residents. The streets are narrow and there are many cars. You would need to check with the municipality about permits and availability.
