Geuzenkwartier, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis spacious end-of-terrace house on Van Boetzelaerlaan sits in the quiet Geuzenkwartier, a pocket of Den Haag that feels a world away from the city bustle. With 238 m² of living space and a 124 m² plot, it's a proper family home. The asking price of €1,300,000 is on the high side, 91% above the neighbourhood average, but then it's the most expensive of the 37 homes currently for sale here, and for good reason. For context, terraced houses in Den Haag vary widely, but this one stands out.
One resident describes it as a 'cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children', adding that it's 'somewhat forgotten and lies in the shadow of Statenkwartier'. Parking is a real problem, they note, with narrow streets. Still, the area scores an 8.67 out of 10 from that single review. The neighbourhood Geuzenkwartier is densely populated, 4,480 residents, and mostly pre-war housing (97% built before 1945). It's a mix of families and singles, with a fair share of older residents too.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there's a Jumbo a couple of streets away. Schools are a bit further, the nearest primary, De Parachute, is a ten-minute walk, while secondary options like Sint-Maartenscollege are a bit farther. The municipality Den Haag offers plenty of green space: a park is on your doorstep. Restaurants are also just around the corner, so eating out is easy.

I have the feeling that this small district, Geuzenkwartier, is somewhat forgotten and lies in the shadow of Statenkwartier. Parking is a real big problem here with the many small narrow streets.

About Van Boetzelaerlaan 62, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 91% above the neighbourhood average of €680,338, making it the most expensive of the 37 homes currently for sale in Geuzenkwartier. However, with 238 m² of space, it's also 105% larger than the average home in the area (116 m²). So you're paying for size and a prime pre-war property. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value that extra space.
The home has energy label B, which is good, it means the property is reasonably efficient. In Geuzenkwartier, only about 21% of homes have label A, and 10.5% have label B, so this is above average for the neighbourhood. You can expect moderate energy costs, but not the lowest possible.
Geuzenkwartier is described by a resident as a 'cosy little neighbourhood with lots of young children'. About 635 households have children, and there are 680 residents under 15. The area has a mix of ages, but it's clearly family-friendly. The main downside mentioned is parking, narrow streets make it tricky.
Albert Heijn is 250 metres away, just around the corner. A Jumbo is 899 metres away, about a ten-minute walk. For primary education, De Parachute is 5.3 km away, which is quite far. Secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege are 6 km away. So you'll likely need a car or bike for school runs.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away. That's a bit of a distance, you'd probably cycle or take a bus to get there. The area is very urban (address density 4,248 per km²), so public transport options are likely available, but the station itself isn't on your doorstep.
In the most recent data, there were 160 total crimes reported in the neighbourhood. That's for an area with 4,480 residents, so roughly 36 crimes per 1,000 people. It's not the safest nor the most dangerous, typical for a dense urban area. The resident review mentions parking issues, not safety concerns.
