Rental homes in Westbroekpark en Duttendel, Den Haag

What does a rental property cost in Westbroekpark en Duttendel?

Renting in Westbroekpark en Duttendel is not for the faint of wallet. The average rent in the free sector over the past twelve months was €3,168 per month, with a range from €961 to as much as €7,950. That is steep, even compared to the rest of Den Haag. The average WOZ value in the neighbourhood is €718,000, more than double The Hague's average (€354,000). This directly translates into free-sector rents. The average size of rented homes is 105 m², but behind that average lie both compact apartments and spacious villas. In the past twelve months, only 46 rental homes changed tenants in the free sector (excluding social housing), which clearly illustrates the scarcity. At the top of this page you will always find the current daily supply and average rent.

Of the housing stock (1,356 homes), 35% are rental properties. Only 4% are owned by housing corporations, while 31% are offered by other landlords. This means the vast majority of rental supply falls in the free sector, and social housing is virtually unavailable here. The owner-occupied sector dominates at 59%. If you are considering settling here permanently, you might also look at homes for sale in Westbroekpark en Duttendel.

Westbroekpark en Duttendel: green, quiet and close to the dunes

On the neighbourhood page of Westbroekpark en Duttendel, residents rate their neighbourhood 8.7 out of 10. That is high, and when you walk around here you understand why. Residents give a perfect 10 for greenery, and that is no exaggeration. The Westbroekpark itself, with its famous Rosarium, the Scheveningse Bosjes and the dunes within walking distance together form a green buffer that gives this neighbourhood an almost rural feel, right in the middle of The Hague. Sam, a resident, calls it a "very quiet neighbourhood with everything a family could need nearby." That tranquillity is characteristic: wide avenues, many detached homes and little through traffic.

Yet it is not all roses. Emma, another resident, gives an 8.3 and notes that "a few more supermarkets and public transport could be closer." That is true. The nearest supermarket is towards the Frederik Hendriklaan area in Belgisch Park or along the Wassenaarseweg. For daily groceries you will need to cycle or take the car. As for public transport, you rely on bus lines; there is no tram stop directly in the neighbourhood. Still, accessibility scores a 9.0, because by car you are quickly on the motorway or in the city centre via the Laan van Meerdervoort and the Johan de Wittlaan.

The neighbourhood consists of two clearly distinct parts. Westbroekpark is the area around the park of the same name, with stately homes and plenty of greenery. Duttendel lies more towards Wassenaar and has an even more villa-district character, with larger plots and more privacy. Both areas share the same tranquillity, but Duttendel feels even more exclusive. The population is relatively old: the largest age group is 65+ (935 out of 2,405 residents), and 40% of households are married. The education level is high (64% highly educated) and the average income of €72,700 is far above The Hague average. It is an established neighbourhood where people stay for a long time.

Renting in Westbroekpark en Duttendel: for whom and for whom not?

A rental home in Westbroekpark en Duttendel suits households with above-average incomes who value peace, space and greenery over a bustling city life. Think of expats renting a home through their employer, dual-income couples without children who consciously choose quiet, or retirees who want to live close to the dunes. For students or starters, this is not a realistic option: prices are too high and supply too limited. If you are considering renting an apartment in Westbroekpark en Duttendel but want more urban vibrancy, you might be better off looking at the Archipelbuurt or the adjacent Van Stolkpark en Scheveningse Bosjes. If you are looking for a similar green environment but with slightly more amenities, then Benoordenhout is worth considering.
