Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Capellalaan sits in the Binckhorst, a neighbourhood that is very much a work in progress. This listing does not state the year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At 116 m², the floor area is 40% larger than the neighbourhood average, and the asking price of €602,500 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Den Haag.
Binckhorst is a neighbourhood with a split personality. One resident describes it as "An industrial estate with some houses that wasn't thought through." Another calls it "An industrial area with a few houses." Both mention a lack of amenities and greenery, and note that it can feel unsafe in the evening. There is a small Albert Heijn, but it's limited. The area is easily accessible by bike and car, but a busy road runs through it. The neighbourhood Binckhorst has a young population, with many single-person households and few families.
For daily groceries, you can walk to Jumbo or Aldi, both just around the corner. A larger Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. For primary schools, the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school and De Parachute are both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of secondary schools within a short distance, including the Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Frisia Makelaars B.V. and other platforms.

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.
Auto-translated to English by AINo greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter.
