Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis modern apartment on Zodiakplein sits in the Binckhorst, a neighbourhood that is still finding its feet. At 198 m², it is far larger than most homes in the area, and with an A+++ energy label it is exceptionally efficient. The asking price of €1,575,000 is well above the neighbourhood average of €552,443, reflecting the size and quality. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely, but this one is clearly at the top end.
Binckhorst is an industrial area where housing has only recently been added. Based on two reviews, residents give it a 4.19 out of 5. One resident says: "It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." The neighbourhood has 2,075 residents, mostly young adults between 25 and 45, and a high density of 3,743 addresses per km². The neighbourhood Binckhorst is very urban, with a mix of businesses and new-build homes.
For daily shopping, the Aldi is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and Albert Heijn are a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are within walking distance: the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school and KC de Telescoop. The municipality Den Haag provides further amenities like a restaurant and a library within a ten-minute walk, though the neighbourhood itself lacks green space.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Frisia Makelaars B.V. and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.

Binckhorst is an industrial estate with some new housing. Residents describe it as having few amenities, no greenery, and safety concerns in the evening. There is a small Albert Heijn, but it is limited. The area is easily accessible by bike and car, but a busy road runs through it. The community is small because many buildings are commercial.
The apartment has an A+++ energy label, the highest possible rating. This means it is extremely energy efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the neighbourhood, 48.9% of homes have label A+ and 51.1% have label A, so this home outperforms even those.
The Aldi is 627 metres away, and Ekoplaza and Albert Heijn are within about a kilometre. Two primary schools are within 750 metres. A restaurant and a child daycare are just 400 metres away. The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, and a GP is 1 km away. However, the neighbourhood itself has limited shops and no park within walking distance.
At 198 m², this apartment is 139% larger than the average home in Binckhorst, which is 83 m². Most homes in the area are smaller, and the maximum asking price for other listings is €915,000, so this is an exceptionally large and expensive property for the neighbourhood.
