Valkenboskwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Valkenbosplein is a compact home in a lively part of The Hague. At 43 m² it's a good deal smaller than the neighbourhood average, and the asking price of €275,000 is 39% below the average for the area, a keen price for a starter home. For context, studios in Den Haag typically sell for less than larger flats, so this one is priced to move.
The Valkenboskwartier is a dense, urban neighbourhood with over 11,600 residents. Most homes are flats, and the area scores high on liveliness. 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." A third review mentions "it smells very bad", so the experience varies. The Valkenboskwartier is a mixed bag, but for many it's a convenient and friendly place to live.
For daily shopping, you have a PLUS, Jumbo and Albert Heijn all within a five-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out: the nearest primary school is about 4.5 km away, so you'd likely cycle or take public transport. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of amenities, with a GP and a restaurant just around the corner. The beach and city centre are easily reachable by bike or tram.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including DOEN NVM Makelaars & Taxateurs. The listing is available on Funda and Pararius, so you can compare details across platforms.

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.
