About Noordeinde 34A, Leiden
The asking price of €195,000 is 86% below the neighbourhood average of €1,385,417. However, the average home in Academiewijk is much larger (205 m²) and includes houses, so the comparison is skewed. Given the 104 m² apartment with a C label, the price is keen relative to the local market, where the median asking price is €837,500.
The energy label is C, which is average for a 19th-century building. It means the home has some insulation but is not as efficient as modern builds. Heating costs will be moderate, but you can expect higher bills than a label A home. The neighbourhood has no homes with labels A or B, all are D or lower, so this is relatively good for the area.
Leiden Centraal station is 1.3 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes commuting to Amsterdam, The Hague or other cities straightforward.
