About Oranje Nassaustraat 17, Voorburg
At €365,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Voorburg Oud noord and 63% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €995,071. However, the floor area (84 m²) is 47% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 158 m², and the energy label G means high heating costs. The price is keen for a terrace in this area, but the low energy rating and smaller size explain the difference.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating bills. Only 3.4% of homes in the neighbourhood have an A+ label, while 55.2% are rated D or lower. Renovating to improve the label could be a significant investment.
Parking is a known issue in Voorburg Oud noord. One resident specifically mentions "parking issues" as the biggest problem. The area is densely built with 2,292 addresses per km², so street parking can be tight. It's worth checking if the property has its own parking facilities, though none are mentioned in the listing.
There are several schools within walking distance. The Professor Casimirschool (primary) is about 200 metres away, Basisschool St Maartens is 350 metres, and Dalton College (secondary) is 267 metres. A child daycare centre is also just around the corner.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. The station provides connections to The Hague, Leiden, and other cities.
Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood scores 6.38 out of 10. Residents describe it as a working-class area with a mix of opinions: some appreciate the character, while others note changes over time, noise from schools and renovations, and parking problems. It's a lively, densely populated area with mostly pre-war housing.
