Jan van Goyenkade 20D

The asking price of €465,000 is 23% below the average asking price in Vreewijk (€606,143) and also below the median of €550,000. However, this apartment is smaller than the neighbourhood average (80 m² vs 111 m²) and has an E energy label, which may affect running costs. Compared to similar properties in the area, the price per m² (€5,813) is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €5,125, so it's not a bargain on a per-square-metre basis.

The energy label is E, which is below average for the Netherlands. In Vreewijk, 60% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. An E label means higher energy costs for heating and electricity compared to more efficient homes. You can expect to spend more on gas and electricity, but the exact amount depends on usage and future energy prices.

Leiden Centraal station is 1.3 km away, about a 15-minute walk. From there, trains run frequently to Amsterdam, The Hague, and other major cities. The neighbourhood's high address density suggests good urban connectivity.

Vreewijk has a mix of residents: about 35% are aged 15-25, likely students, while 22% are 45-65 and 18% are 65+. Only 10% of households have children, so it's not a typical family neighbourhood. There are several primary schools within walking distance, but secondary schools are a bit further (1.6 km). The park is just 500 m away, offering green space for children.

The floor area is 80 m², which typically accommodates two to three rooms, but the exact layout is not provided by the agent.

The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given the apartment is in a 19th-century building on a street, it likely has no private outdoor space, but this is not confirmed.

In central Leiden, street parking is often paid and limited. Some residents may have permits, but this is not specified for this property.
