Leyenburg, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis 1950s terraced house on Wormerveerstraat sits in a lively, multicultural pocket of Den Haag. With 108 m² of living space and a 129 m² plot, it's a solid family home that feels roomier than many in the area. The price of €415,000 is 21% above the neighbourhood average of €344,315, but you're getting 26% more floor space than the typical Leyenburg home, so it's a fair trade-off for a larger-than-average house. For context, terraced houses in Den Haag vary widely, and this one sits at the upper end.
Leyenburg is an old neighbourhood from the 1940s, and residents describe it as "a nice multicultural neighbourhood, a bit of village in a city." One resident says: "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." Another notes: "Older houses that could use some maintenance. Parking pressure is high. Cosy shopping centres, good public transport facilities." Based on eight reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.44 out of 10. It's a dense urban area, with 5,977 addresses per km², and mostly consists of flats (only 10% are single-family homes). About 53% of homes are owner-occupied, and the area has a mix of ages, with many 25-to-45-year-olds. For more on the area, see neighbourhood Leyenburg.
For your morning bread run, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Lidl is a five-minute walk. Schools are a bit further: the nearest primary, WSKO Basisschool De Hofvilla, is a ten-minute walk, and the Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Pieter van der Plas School is about the same distance. The Zuiderpark is on your doorstep for a weekend stroll. The municipality Den Haag offers good public transport, with a train station 3.7 km away, a short cycle or bus ride.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Frisia Makelaars B.V. and Funda.

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 222, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 21% above the average for Leyenburg (€344,315), but this home is 26% larger than the typical home in the neighbourhood (108 m² vs 86 m²). Given the extra space and the fact that it's a terraced house, a rare type in an area dominated by flats, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a larger property.
The home has energy label D. That's fairly typical for a 1950s house, most homes in Leyenburg (45.9%) have label D or lower. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not the most efficient. If you're looking to improve it, you could consider insulation or double glazing, but that's entirely up to you.
Leyenburg has a village-like feel within the city, with many families and a strong sense of community. Residents mention knowing their neighbours and using a neighbourhood app to share concerns. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the Zuiderpark is nearby for outdoor play. Parking can be tight, though.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, so you'd need a bike or bus to reach it. For local trips, many amenities are within walking distance.
In the past year, sold homes in Leyenburg took an average of 40 days to sell. That's a reasonable timeframe, suggesting a balanced market, not too fast, not too slow.
The listing does not mention a garden. The plot is 129 m², which could include outdoor space, but without confirmation from the agent, it's best not to assume. You'd need to check the property details directly.
