What does a home in Regentessekwartier cost?

The average WOZ value is €349,000, just slightly below The Hague's average of €354,000.

Living in Regentessekwartier: cosy, central and well-equipped

Regentessekwartier is nestled between Huijgenspark and Weimarstraat, and that's exactly what defines its character. Weimarstraat is the neighbourhood's lifeline: a long shopping street with a mix of Turkish bakeries, coffee shops, vintage stores and several supermarkets. Resident Shantie sums it up succinctly: "Plenty of supermarkets. Nice restaurants and cafes. But also quiet, especially in the evening." This combination of daytime liveliness and evening calm particularly attracts young professionals, and that's reflected in the figures: the largest age group is 25 to 45 years old (5,790 residents), and more than half of the residents are highly educated. On the Regentessekwartier neighbourhood page, residents rate the area 8.0 out of 10, based on 15 reviews. Notably high scores for housing (8.4) and accessibility (8.3).

That accessibility is no empty phrase. Tram lines 2, 3 and 4 stop along Loosduinsekade and Regentesselaan, getting you to Den Haag Centraal within ten minutes. Hollands Spoor station is a 15-minute walk away. By bike, you're in the city centre or at the Haagse Markt in five minutes. The A12 is easily reachable via Neherkade and Rijswijkseweg. For families with children, primary schools like De Regentesseschool and De Waalse School are nearby, and Zuiderpark with its sports fields and playgrounds is within cycling distance. Resident Dewi vd Weerd calls it "a nice, centrally located neighbourhood with good amenities," though she notes it "could be a bit greener." That sentiment comes up more often: the score for green space is a decent 7.9, but resident John vdham specifically advocates for more greenery and better maintenance. Huijgenspark does offer some respite, but for large parks you need to look in adjacent neighbourhoods. For example, check out the supply in Koningsplein en omgeving if you want to be closer to Westbroekpark, or consider Westbroekpark en Duttendel if green space is your top priority.

In terms of atmosphere, Regentessekwartier is a true urban neighbourhood: the streets are narrow, the houses are close together and you know your neighbours. Sarah, who has lived there for ten years, simply describes the area as "cosy" and "friendly." The community score of 7.9 confirms that picture. It's not a sleepy villa district, but a neighbourhood where you run into someone you know at the bakery in the morning.

The website of the municipality of Den Haag also provides up-to-date information on zoning plans and permits in the neighbourhood.
