This 1868 terraced house on Van Hogendorpstraat sits in Huygenspark, a corner of Den Haag that has clearly come into its own.

The Huygenspark neighbourhood
One resident describes the Huygenspark neighbourhood as a "green, quiet and accessible neighbourhood" that has improved over the years. They note that Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is now a vibrant park for all ages. The same resident points out that while the area is an extension of the Schilderswijk district, "you don't notice any of that here; up to the level of Holland Spoor station, everything is perfectly fine." Accessibility gets high marks, with the city centre, the train station and trams towards Scheveningen all within easy reach. The review is based on a single resident's experience, but it paints a positive picture.

Frequently asked questions
About Van Hogendorpstraat 56, 'S-Gravenhage
Is €718 a month a fair rent for this home?
The rent of €718 is significantly below the average rent in Huygenspark, which stands at €2,895 per month. That average is based on a single rental listing, so it may not be fully representative, but the difference is striking. Given the home's size and age, the rent appears to be on the low side, especially for a terraced house in this part of Den Haag.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. This is an official registration from EP-Online, and it indicates the home's energy performance as recorded. A D label is in the middle of the scale, so you can expect moderate energy costs compared to more efficient homes, but the label itself does not tell you about the condition of the building or its installations.

What is the public transport situation like?

How quickly do homes in this area get rented out?
Homes in Huygenspark are rented out on average within 18 days, according to local market data. This suggests a steady demand for rental properties in the neighbourhood. For a home at this price point, interest is likely to be strong, so it may not stay available for long.
