Safe neighbourhood with lots of nature, just a bit lacking in amenities
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice neighbourhood, I've lived here since birth. You're at the beach in a few minutes and in the city centre in half an hour. Quiet area, lots of green, good community. You know the whole street and neighbours regularly come by for a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. It's a clean neighbourhood without litter lying around, many detached and semi-detached houses. Helderingschool and RKBS De Parkiet are less than 5 minutes apart. There is also room for special education. There is little car traffic, many people cycle in the neighbourhood. This gives a lot of peace.
Auto-translated to English by AIDe Vogelwijk in The Hague is really a nice place! It's so quiet and green, perfect for a relaxing walk. You can stroll through the Vogelwijkpark, enjoy nature, and maybe even spot some local animals. It just feels very pleasant to be there, especially when the sun is shining!
Auto-translated to English by AIMy parents and I have been living in De Vogelwijk for 5 years now and we like it. Apart from the relatively high average age, quite a lot still happens. There are many schools in the neighbourhood and plenty of space for children to play outside. There are no high-rise buildings, so it's very light everywhere. The location is great because the sea is a 10-minute walk away and the Jumbo, hairdresser, baker and Kruidvat are even closer. It's usually very quiet in the evenings, except when there's been a party at the Westwood, but even that is minimal. Overall, I think De Vogelwijk is a nice and beautiful neighbourhood.

About Wildhoeflaan 34, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 15% above the neighbourhood average of €1,117,333, which is on the high side. However, corner houses with a 375 m² plot are uncommon in Vogelwijk. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €7,413, and this home works out to about €6,693 per m², which is below that average. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the larger plot and the location.
Energy label F indicates poor energy efficiency, so heating and electricity bills will be higher than for a well-insulated home. In Vogelwijk, over half of homes (54.8%) have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. You should expect significant energy costs, especially in winter.
Vogelwijk is very family-friendly. 45% of households have children, and there are several primary schools within walking or cycling distance. Residents mention a strong community feel, with neighbours often visiting each other. The area is quiet, green, and has little car traffic, making it safe for children to play outside.
The Jumbo supermarket is just around the corner (853 m), and the Aldi and Albert Heijn are within a 15-minute walk. A park or garden is a couple of streets away (0.3 km). The beach is a few minutes by bike, and the city centre is about half an hour by public transport. The nearest train station is 6 km away.
In the past period, 65 homes were sold in the neighbourhood, with an average selling time of 35 days. That suggests a fairly active market. The average sold price was €1,040,808, which is below the current asking price of this home.
