Houtwijk, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis mid-terrace house on Dr. A. Brediusstraat sits in a green, safe pocket of Den Haag. With 111 m² of living space, an A energy label and a 1982 build, it's a well-insulated, efficient home. The asking price of €525,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €464,000, but it reflects the energy performance and the fact that terraced houses in Den Haag are in limited supply.

One resident says: "The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street." Another adds: "Everyone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other." Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood scores an 8.4 out of 10. Most homes are from the 1970-1990 period, and the area is home to many families and older residents. The neighbourhood Houtwijk is very urban, with a high density of addresses, yet it feels calm and well-maintained.
For daily shopping, you have a Lidl just around the corner and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including WSKO r-.k basisschool Verburch-hof and WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of parks and green spaces nearby, with a park or public garden just a few minutes' walk away.

I've been living in Houtwijk for a while now and overall I'm very satisfied with the neighbourhood. What I particularly experience as positive are the people here. The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street. The area is also clean and well-maintained, which gives a nice and cared-for feeling. Moreover, it feels very safe here; I feel at ease in the surroundings at any time of day. What I find less pleasant is the accessibility of Houtwijk by public transport. There are buses and trams, but the service is limited and connections to other parts of the city are sometimes a bit cumbersome or time-consuming. This makes it difficult for people without a car to get to other places quickly. All in all, I think Houtwijk is a nice and quiet place to live, especially because of the friendly neighbours, the cleanliness and the feeling of safety. Hopefully public transport will be better organised in the future.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other. All amenities are close by. Actually, this is the perfect neighbourhood. Everyone neatly cleans up the mess on the street, the houses are beautiful and well-insulated, green spaces are next to the centre which is also nice and spacious. Moreover, there is plenty to do for the children. Accessibility by both public transport and car is fine.

About Dr. A. Brediusstraat 25, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €525,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €464,000 and the median of €495,000. However, this home has an A energy label and is a mid-terrace house, which are less common in Houtwijk. The price per square metre works out at about €4,730, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €4,428, so it's on the high side but reflects the energy efficiency and property type.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the home is well-insulated and you can expect relatively low heating costs. In Houtwijk, about 36% of homes have label A, so this house is above average in terms of energy performance.
Public transport is available but not the strongest point. One resident notes that buses and trams have limited service and connections to other parts of the city can be time-consuming. The nearest train station is 5.4 km away, so a car or bike is handy for longer journeys.
