Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Daguerrestraat is a small, affordable home in a lively part of The Hague. At 36 m² it's compact, and with an energy label G you can expect high heating costs. The asking price of €199,000 is 56% below the neighbourhood average of €451,726, which makes sense given the size and energy performance. For comparison, other studios in Den Haag vary widely in price and condition.
The Valkenboskwartier is a dense urban area with a very high address density (8,568 per km²). It's home to a diverse mix of people: many singles, quite a few young adults, and some families. Residents give it a 7.75 out of 10 based on five reviews. One resident says: "Very nice neighbourhood, near the centre and easily accessible." Another notes: "Quite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach." The Valkenboskwartier is known for its pre-war housing stock, 93% of homes were built before 1945.
For your groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are also small shops within walking distance. Schools are a bit further out: the nearest primary school, De Parachute, is about 4.5 km away, so you'd likely cycle or take public transport. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of urban amenities, with restaurants and a library within a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing, this home is listed via De Haagsche Makelaar and also appears on Funda.

Auto-translated to English by AIQuite noisy neighbourhood because you live next to a busy road, but otherwise always a very nice neighbourhood. You can live here in larger or smaller homes. It's tidy and you're quickly in the centre of The Hague or at the beach, for example. Lovely people around you. It's a 5-minute walk from the Albert Heijn. There are also small shops within walking distance. There's a good driving school, Phillipo.
Auto-translated to English by AIA normal neighbourhood, not busy or anything like that. Lots of shops nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the hygienic condition is concerned, there is much room for improvement. This by making offenders clean up their own mess and imposing much higher fines. This does mean that there should be better monitoring and that the supervisory service should not just drive by. This prevents nuisance from pests and pollution. But it also gives a safer feeling for the entire neighbourhood.

About Daguerrestraat 166, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €199,000 is 56% below the neighbourhood average of €451,726. However, this studio is only 36 m² and has an energy label G, so the lower price reflects its size and expected energy costs. In the Valkenboskwartier, the average price per m² is €5,136, which would put this studio at around €185,000 based on size alone, but the poor energy label and older building (1906) justify the slight premium.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home has poor insulation and high heating costs are to be expected. In the neighbourhood, 40.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but you should budget for significant energy bills.
The Valkenboskwartier is very central and well-served. There are supermarkets within a few minutes' walk: Jumbo at 176 m and Albert Heijn at 206 m. Restaurants are just around the corner (200 m), and a library is 600 m away. The area is densely built and lively, with a mix of residents. Some noise from traffic is mentioned in reviews.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. The city centre is easily accessible by bike or public transport.
The listing states it is a studio, which typically means one open-plan living/sleeping area plus a separate kitchen and bathroom. The exact layout is not described in the data, but the floor area is 36 m².
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that it's a studio in a pre-war building, outdoor space is unlikely but not confirmed.
In the Valkenboskwartier, 614 total crimes were recorded in the latest data. This is a relatively high number for a neighbourhood of about 11,640 residents, but it's a dense urban area. Specific types of crime are not detailed here.
