About Levendaal 142, Leiden
The asking price of €425,000 is exactly the median price in Levendaal-Oost, but 21% below the average of €539,250. Given the 59 m² floor area (45% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 107 m²), the price per m² is about €7,203, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,395 per m². So while the total price is in line with the median, you're paying a premium per square metre for a smaller, energy-efficient home.
Levendaal-Oost is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's popular with singles and students: over half of households are one-person, and only 155 households have children. The one resident review gives it an 8.75, calling it "Lively and cosy" and noting that everything is within easy reach. The area has a mix of pre-war and newer buildings, and the energy labels vary, with 43% at label C.
Leiden Centraal station is 1.3 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes commuting to Amsterdam, The Hague, or other cities straightforward.
The Dekamarkt is just 42 metres away, so you can pop out for bread or milk in seconds. Hoogvliet is 382 metres, and Albert Heijn is 573 metres, all within a five- to ten-minute walk.
With 59 m² and likely two bedrooms, it's more suited to a couple or single person. The neighbourhood has few families (only 155 households with children) and many singles, so it's not a typical family area. Schools are within walking distance, but the home itself is compact.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means low energy bills and a good level of insulation. In the neighbourhood, only 14% of homes have label A, so this is a plus.
