Rembrandtkwartier, Rijswijk
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Burgemeester Elsenlaan sits in a neighbourhood that feels a world away from the busy city centre. With 75 m² of living space and an energy label C, it's a solid, no-fuss home. The asking price of €335,000 is in line with what you'd expect for an apartment in Rijswijk, especially when you look at other apartments in Rijswijk.
Rembrandtkwartier gets mixed reviews from its residents. One person describes it as "a nice neighbourhood where you can easily make contact with neighbours" and praises the "good accessibility to the centre of The Hague and Rotterdam." Another calls it a "quiet neighbourhood close to shops and public transport, plenty of play areas for children." But a third review is starkly negative, calling it "very bad, impoverished neighbourhood" with antisocial behaviour. Based on three reviews, the picture is divided. The area is densely built up, with mostly flats and a mix of ages, many single-person households, but also families with children. You'll find a good number of neighbourhood Rembrandtkwartier residents living in owner-occupied homes.
For your daily bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and Aldi are a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like KC de Telescoop and the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school, both about a five-minute walk. The municipality Rijswijk has plenty of green spaces nearby, with a park or public garden just around the corner.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Freek Fontein Makelaardij.

Very bad, impoverished neighbourhood, junkies, antisocial people who throw their rubbish on the street and in communal gardens instead of in the bins, foreigners from Poland, Turkey, Africa, etc. and more. Send all these people back where they came from. This neighbourhood is getting worse and worse. There are also stolen bikes here. Few parking spaces, but too many trees on the street. I don't dare walk the streets in the evening. Enforcement officers should actually check every day/evening.

About Burgemeester Elsenlaan 85, Rijswijk (Zh)
The asking price of €335,000 is in line with the market for apartments in Rijswijk. With 75 m² and energy label C, it's a reasonable price for a post-war flat in this neighbourhood. You're paying for a solid home in a location that's well connected to The Hague and Rotterdam.
The energy label is C, which means the home has reasonable energy efficiency. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home. The listing doesn't specify insulation or heating system details, so you'd need to check the exact features.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bus ride. That gives you direct connections to The Hague and Rotterdam, making it a practical choice for commuters.
Reviews are mixed. Some residents say it's a quiet, friendly neighbourhood where you can easily make contact. Others mention issues with antisocial behaviour and litter. The area has a mix of ages, with many single-person households and some families. It's best to visit and see for yourself.
