Visserijbuurt, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Cornelis Jolstraat has the feel of a classic Scheveningen townhouse, with generous proportions and a striking energy label G that hints at high heating costs. At 184 m², it is 79% larger than the average home in the Visserijbuurt, and the asking price of €1,150,000 sits 122% above the neighbourhood average of €518,800, a figure that reflects the exceptional size and location rather than the market norm. For context, terraced houses in Den Haag vary widely, but this one is clearly in a different league.
The Visserijbuurt is a compact, urban neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. With an address density of 4,484 per km², it is very densely built, and the population is a mix of singles (1,025 one-person households) and families (585 households with children). One resident describes it as a "lively neighbourhood with everything you need on the same street," though they note that "all the traffic has to go through the same street." The area has a high proportion of pre-war housing (62.5% built before 1945), and most homes are flats (84%), making this terraced house a relative rarity. For more on the area, see the Visserijbuurt neighbourhood.
For your morning bread and groceries, Hoogvliet is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. Primary schools are a couple of streets away, with De Parachute and Bloemcampschool both within a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood also has a GP surgery and a park within a few minutes' walk, so daily errands are easily done on foot. For a wider range of amenities, the municipality of Den Haag offers everything from museums to beaches.

A nice neighbourhood with everything you need on the same street. Just a shame that all the traffic has to go through the same street.

About Cornelis Jolstraat 12, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 122% above the average asking price in the Visserijbuurt (€518,800), but this home is also 79% larger than the average (103 m²). Recent sold prices in the neighbourhood averaged €772,857, so the price reflects the exceptional size and a location. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the specific street.
Energy label G is the least efficient rating, so heating costs will be high, especially in a house of this size (184 m²). The home was built in 1906, and the neighbourhood has 62.5% pre-war housing, so insulation is likely minimal.
This is a terraced house in a neighbourhood where 84% of homes are flats. At 184 m², it is much larger than the average 103 m², and the asking price of €1,150,000 is far above the neighbourhood median of €520,000. Only 5 homes are currently for sale in the area, so choice is limited.
The Visserijbuurt has 585 households with children and several primary schools within walking distance. One resident calls it a "lively neighbourhood with everything you need on the same street." However, they also mention that traffic funnels through the main street, which may be a consideration for families with young children.
The nearest train station is 4.6 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would likely need a bike, car or bus to reach it.
Hoogvliet supermarket is 467 m away (just around the corner), and Albert Heijn is 609 m (a five-minute walk). There are also restaurants, a library and a park within a few hundred metres. Daily shopping and errands are easily done on foot.
The plot size is 122 m², which typically includes some outdoor space, but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden, terrace or balcony.
