Gone downhill, absolutely no local shops or small stores for basic necessities. You have to get everything by car or in Wassenaar village 7 kilometres away or in Mariahoeve, The Hague. Also no good cycling connection through the green via the meadows to Mariahoeve. The neighbourhood is in a green oasis next to the Duivenvoordsepolder. Safety: people drive their cars through the streets in an irresponsible manner. Hygiene: dog poo is a problem in many places. Housing: two streets need to be rebuilt: Jacobastraat and Adriaanstraat; houses are a hundred years old, poorly insulated and much too small. Public transport accessibility: a bus that runs along the Rijksstraatweg from The Hague to Haarlem and vice versa. An option should be Randstad traffic with a bus from station Mariahoeve, which runs via the Wittenburgerweg along the Kerkehout and then rejoins the old route, so you can also easily get to the train station Mariahoeve and tram line 6 to take into the city.

About Rijksstraatweg 763, Wassenaar
The price is on the high side compared to other between-the-wars homes in Wassenaar, but the plot of 5319 m² is exceptionally large for a home of this type. The modern build (2009) and A energy label also add value. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the land and the quiet, green location.
