It is a nice neighbourhood. The people are real working-class folk. They gossip and love sensation.
Auto-translated to English by AII was born here, the neighbourhood has changed a lot in the past 34 years. In the past, people helped each other, now many divorced people. Greetings are no longer possible, and the biggest problem is the parking issues! And always noise from school, renovations, barking dogs, crying children.

About Emmastraat 15, Voorburg
The asking price of €380,000 is 62% below the neighbourhood average of €995,071, but the home is also 42% smaller than the average (92 m² vs 158 m²). Given the size and the energy label F, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact terraced house in this area.
Energy label F is the second-lowest rating, meaning the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. The label is an official registration; it doesn't specify which aspects need improvement.
The neighbourhood has a mix of families and older residents, with about 770 households with children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like Professor Casimirschool and Montessorischool Nieuw Vreugd en Rust. Some residents note noise from school and children, but it's a lively area.
Parking is mentioned as a challenge by one resident, who says parking issues are a big problem. The listing does not specify whether there is a driveway or garage, so you would need to rely on street parking, which may be limited.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride. This gives access to the wider rail network.
The listing states the year of construction (1921) and the energy label (F), but does not describe the condition of the roof, plumbing, or installations. A viewing would be needed to assess the actual state.
