Molenbuurt, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Nieuwe Mare sits in one of Leiden's oldest streets, with the canal just steps away. At 64 m² it's compact but efficient, and with an A energy label it's unusually efficient for a 1875 building. The asking price of €425,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €370,000, but the energy performance and location help explain it.
