Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Wormerveerstraat sits in the Leyenburg neighbourhood of Den Haag. At 52 m² it's a compact home, but the price of €225,000 is the cheapest of the 119 flats currently for sale in the area, 35% below the neighbourhood average of €344,315. That makes it a keen entry point into the local market, especially compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
Residents describe Leyenburg as a cosy, multicultural neighbourhood with a village feel. One says: "A nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city." Another notes: "An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark." Parking is a recurring theme, it's a big problem, according to several reviews. The area is densely populated (nearly 6,000 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of flats, with many single-person households. For more context, see the municipality Den Haag page.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Lidl is a five-minute walk. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla and the Protestant Christian Pieter van der Plas School. The Zuiderpark is a couple of streets away for a weekend stroll. The neighbourhood has good public transport, though the nearest train station is a ten-minute drive.

An 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 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.

About Wormerveerstraat 209, 'S-Gravenhage
At €225,000, this is the cheapest flat currently for sale in Leyenburg. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €344,315, so this one is 35% below that. However, the flat is also smaller than average (52 m² vs 86 m²). Given the price per m² (€4,327) is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,081, the price reflects the compact size rather than being a bargain.
The energy label is E. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In Leyenburg, about 46% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
Leyenburg has a mix of households: about 29% are families with children, 24% are couples without children, and 55% are single-person households. Residents describe it as a cosy, multicultural area with a village feel. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the Zuiderpark is nearby for outdoor activities.
Parking is a known issue in Leyenburg. Multiple residents mention it as a big problem. The flat itself does not include a parking spot, so you would need to rely on street parking, which can be challenging.
Jumbo is about 360 metres away, just around the corner. Albert Heijn is about 380 metres, also a couple of streets away. Lidl is about 700 metres, a five-minute walk. So daily groceries are very convenient.
The neighbourhood has good public transport facilities according to residents. The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, which is about a ten-minute drive or a longer bus ride.
