Huygenspark, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis monumental 1885 townhouse in Huygenspark is a rare find: 271 m² of living space on a 266 m² plot, with a B energy label. At €1,195,000 it's the priciest of the 17 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood, and 135% above the average asking price of €509,353, but then you're getting 140% more space than the typical home here. For context, terraced houses in Den Haag vary widely, but this one stands out for its sheer size and central location.
Just one resident has reviewed the neighbourhood Huygenspark, giving it an 8.13. They say: "Over the years, this neighbourhood has improved in my opinion. Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is a vibrant park for all ages." They add that it's an extension of the Schilderswijk district, "but you don't notice any of that here; up to the level of Holland Spoor station, everything is perfectly fine." The neighbourhood is densely populated (8,160 residents) and very urban (7,852 addresses per km²), with mostly flats (93%) and a young skew: 35% are 25-45. The resident sums it up: "Accessibility is top-notch; you're quickly in the city centre, quickly at the train station, and quickly on the tram towards Scheveningen or other places in The Hague."
Daily errands are a breeze: Albert Heijn is just around the corner, Jumbo is a couple of streets away, and Ekoplaza is a five-minute walk. For schools, the nearest primary is De Parachute, with Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer a bit further. Secondary options include Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum, both about 2.5 km away. The municipality Den Haag offers everything you'd expect from a major city, with restaurants and a library within walking distance.
At the time of writing the home is listed via DOEN NVM Makelaars - Voorburg and also appears on Pararius, so it's available through several channels.

Over the years, this neighbourhood has improved in my opinion. Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is a vibrant park for all ages. The Huygenspark neighbourhood is an extension of the notorious Schilderswijk district. But you don't notice any of that here; up to the level of Holland Spoor station, everything is perfectly fine. Accessibility is top-notch; you're quickly in the city centre, quickly at the train station, and quickly on the tram towards Scheveningen or other places in The Hague. Plenty of amenities; everything you need can be found in the neighbourhood.

About Huijgensstraat 4, 'S-Gravenhage
It's the most expensive home currently for sale in Huygenspark, and 135% above the neighbourhood average of €509,353. But the house is also 140% larger than the average (271 m² vs 113 m²), on a 266 m² plot, and has a B energy label. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value space and a central location in a sought-after part of The Hague.
Huygenspark is a green, quiet pocket within the city, according to the one resident review. It's very urban with a young population, mostly flats, but the street itself has a mix of older townhouses. The park is a recent renovation and popular with all ages. Accessibility is excellent: you're close to the train station, trams, and the city centre.
The nearest train station is 0.6 km away, about a seven-minute walk. That's Holland Spoor station, which gives you direct connections to Rotterdam, Amsterdam, and other cities.
Albert Heijn and Jumbo are both within a couple of streets away (about 300 m), and Ekoplaza is a five-minute walk. For a wider selection, the city centre is a short tram ride or a 15-minute walk.
It has an energy label B, which is good for a house built in 1885. In the neighbourhood, 29.2% of homes have label A, 12.5% label B, and 33.3% label C, so this one is above average. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though a monumental house may have higher heating needs.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 271 m² of living space over multiple floors, it likely has several, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The plot is 266 m², which suggests there is outdoor space, but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden.
