Another says, "It's very nice but hard to park here," while a third finds it "very cosy and fun to live here." The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses (3,996 per km²), making it very urban. Most homes are pre-war (55.6%), and the area is popular with singles and couples, average household size is 1.8. The neighbourhood Scheveningen Badplaats has a lively, touristy feel, but behind the coast lies 'the village' with small shops.
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Hoogvliet a couple of streets away and Aldi a bit further. Schools are a bit farther, the nearest primary, Bloemcampschool, is about 6 km away, so you'd likely drive or take public transport. The nearest secondary, Corbulo Tech & Design College, is also around 6.6 km. A park or garden is a five-minute walk, and restaurants are on your doorstep. The municipality Den Haag offers extensive amenities, but this part of Scheveningen is self-contained for daily needs.

Very good · 3 residents
Unfortunately, people leave their rubbish lying around. Tourism is big, but visitors are usually up for a chat. Just behind the tourist coast is 'the village'. Cosy with small shops. Keizerstraat could be better signposted. There is a lot of vacancy; it could be a cosy street if property prices weren't so high. I'm in favour of a cosier Keizerstraat that isn't too touristy but does connect with a tourist area…

About Ankerstraat 77, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €525,000 is close to the neighbourhood average of €550,000 and slightly above the median of €499,500. Given the compact 75 m² floor area (25% smaller than the average 100 m² in the area), the price per m² works out to €7,000, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,793 per m². However, the exceptional A++++ energy label adds value, as only 5% of homes in the area have A+ or better.
This home has an A++++ energy label, which is the highest possible rating. It means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating costs and a minimal carbon footprint. In the neighbourhood, only 5.2% of homes have A+ or better, so this is a standout feature for a house built in 1865.
Scheveningen Badplaats is a lively, touristy coastal area with a high density of shops, restaurants, and public transport. Residents appreciate the cosy atmosphere and the village-like feel behind the tourist strip, but note issues like rubbish and parking. The area is very urban (address density 3,996 per km²) and has a mix of singles and couples.
The beach is not explicitly mentioned in the data, but given that the neighbourhood is called Scheveningen Badplaats (Scheveningen Resort), it is likely within walking distance. The nearest park or garden is 0.4 km away, and restaurants are 0.2 km away.
Parking is noted as a challenge by residents, one review says "hard to park here." The listing does not specify whether there is a private parking spot or garage. On-street parking may be available but could be limited due to the touristy nature of the area.
The house was built in 1865, making it over 150 years old. However, the A++++ energy label suggests it has been thoroughly modernised, likely with high-quality insulation, triple glazing, and a heat pump. The listing does not mention any specific renovations, but the energy label indicates significant upgrades.
The nearest primary school, Bloemcampschool, is about 6 km away, and the nearest secondary, Corbulo Tech & Design College, is about 6.6 km away. This means you would likely need to drive or take public transport for school runs.
