Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis mid-terrace house on Wormerveerstraat sits in the heart of Leyenburg, a lively post-war neighbourhood in The Hague. With 112 m² of living space and a 142 m² plot, it's a proper family home, noticeably roomier than the average in the area. The asking price of €450,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €344,315, but you're paying for that extra space. For context, terraced houses in Den Haag vary widely, and this one stands out for its size.
Leyenburg is a multicultural neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as "a nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city," adding that neighbours know each other and help out. Another calls it a "cosy old neighbourhood" with good shops and public transport, though parking is a real headache. The area is densely populated, very strong urbanity, and mostly consists of flats, so this terraced house is something of a rarity. Neighbourhood Leyenburg has a mix of ages, with many one-person households but also plenty of families.
Your morning bread run is a 98-metre stroll to the Albert Heijn, and the Jumbo is just 148 metres away, both on your doorstep. For school runs, the nearest primary school is about 600 metres away, a five-minute walk. There's also a Lidl a couple of streets away for bulk shopping. The Zuiderpark is just around the corner, perfect for a weekend kickabout. Municipality Den Haag offers all the city amenities, but here you're in a quieter pocket.

An old neighbourhood, from the 1940s. Unfortunately, a flat was built on Soesterbergstraat many years ago that doesn't fit in with the area at all. The conversion into bedsits hasn't improved the neighbourhood. Parking is a big problem. It is conveniently close to Zuiderpark though.

Auto-translated to English by AIOf course there are always a few people who don't take putting out the rubbish properly seriously. But overall, our neighbourhood is a nice, cosy area. We know our immediate neighbours and help each other when we can. We have a neighbourhood app together where we can share our problems with each other. And warn each other about thieves or vagrants. I am happy with my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in the FNP and there we spend a lot on keeping it cosy and clean. But outside our little neighbourhood it's an antisocial mess. Household items are just put out on the street. Always banger fireworks. Gatherings, with or without laughing gas, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AII think my neighbourhood is the quietest and cleanest in all of The Hague. Everywhere else you find rubbish on the streets, people who can't behave, traffic is a big joke, but in Leyenburg it's completely different. It's clean, quiet, peaceful here, people behave well, there are few traffic jams, and especially no stupid people standing on the bike paths with hazard lights.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy neighbourhood, unfortunately a lot of unpleasant things happen here though.

About Wormerveerstraat 18, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 31% above the neighbourhood average of €344,315, but this house is also 30% larger than the typical home in Leyenburg (86 m² vs 112 m²). Given the extra space and the fact that it's a terraced house in an area dominated by flats, the price is on the high side but reflects the premium for size and type.
Leyenburg has a village-like feel with a strong community spirit, according to residents. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the Zuiderpark is just around the corner. However, parking is a known issue, and some older houses could use maintenance. The area is multicultural and lively.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house of this age (built in 1950). It means the property is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact amounts depend on usage. In the neighbourhood, 32% of homes have label C, while 45.9% have a lower rating.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, which is about a ten-minute drive or a longer cycle. Public transport in the neighbourhood itself is good, with bus and tram connections nearby.
Parking is a known challenge in Leyenburg, as residents mention. The house likely has no private parking, so you'd rely on street parking, which can be tight. It's worth checking the permit situation with the municipality.
At 112 m², this house is 30% larger than the average home in Leyenburg (86 m²). The plot of 142 m² also gives you a decent garden, a rare find in this dense neighbourhood where most homes are flats.
