About Zeilstraat 114, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €340,000 is 38% below the neighbourhood average of €550,000, but the home is also much smaller than average (43 m² vs 100 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €7,907, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,793 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size and location.
The home has energy label C, which is fairly typical for a house built in 1903. In the neighbourhood, 40.3% of homes have label C, and 24.7% have a lower rating. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier, you can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage.
The beach is on your doorstep, the promenade and sea are just a couple of streets away, less than a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood is Scheveningen Badplaats, the main seaside resort of Den Haag.
The neighbourhood has a mix of residents: about 13.6% are children under 15, and 12.6% of households have children. There are primary schools within walking distance (De Parachute and Bloemcampschool are about a ten-minute walk), and secondary schools a bit further. Residents describe it as cosy and safe, though parking can be hard.
The neighbourhood is well served by buses and trams, as residents note. The train station is 5 km away, so for national rail connections you'd need a bus or tram to Den Haag HS or Centraal. But local public transport is frequent and within easy reach.
Parking is known to be difficult in Scheveningen Badplaats. One resident says: 'It's very nice but hard to park here.' The area is densely built and popular with tourists, so street parking can be a challenge. The home does not have a private parking spot listed.
The house was built in 1903, so it's over 120 years old. It has energy label C, which suggests some modernisation has been done. The exact condition of the interior, roof, and foundations is not detailed in the listing, a viewing would be needed to assess that.
Albert Heijn is just around the corner (308 m), Hoogvliet is a couple of streets away (519 m), and Aldi is a ten-minute walk (730 m). There are also many restaurants (0.2 km), a library (1.1 km), and a park (0.4 km). The Keizerstraat has small shops, though some are vacant.
How residents experience their neighbourhood
Unfortunately, people leave their rubbish lying around. Tourism is big, but visitors are usually up for a chat. Just behind the tourist coast is 'the village'. Cosy with small shops. Keizerstraat could be better signposted. There is a lot of vacancy; it could be a cosy street if property prices weren't so high. I'm in favour of a cosier Keizerstraat that isn't too touristy but does connect with a tourist area…

Pleasant living in a neighbourhood with lots of children
Auto-translated to English by AIIf you are a Scheveningen, then you are (unfortunately) one of us. But most Hagenaars, and whoever else, friendly, everyone who behaves, what matters is harmony.

Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is that there is very little nuisance (such as crime or the like). In the evenings, there are often young people racing by on fatbikes. That's the less pleasant part, besides the fact that this happens all day long. Furthermore, my neighbourhood is diverse; sometimes children play in the street, people walk their dogs or go to sports or the like. Most people are friendly, but unfortunately rarely say hello (I think that's also the spirit of the times). There are also occasionally confused people. Otherwise, the community is fine and there is very open communication!

Auto-translated to English by AIA nice neighbourhood with everything you need on the same street. Just a shame that all the traffic has to go through the same street.
