Hoge Mors, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Opaalstraat sits in a lively part of Leiden, where the streets are busy and the park is just a couple of streets away. With 81 m² and an energy label C, it's a practical home for someone who wants a solid base in the city. The asking price of €350,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, 42% below the average asking price of €607,438, partly because this is a smaller flat in a market where apartments in Leiden vary widely.

A nice dog walking area that I look out onto. Also a beautiful park. However, too few shops, so little choice unfortunately." The other adds: "Good experiences, nice people, plenty of space, a beautiful dog walking area and a nice park with play space for children!"

Cosy flat with many elderly residents. A nice dog walking area that I look out onto. Also a beautiful park. However, too few shops, so little choice unfortunately. Only the park is not lit and there are regularly homeless people who also sleep in the bushes! The park is well maintained though. In short, I am very satisfied with the neighbourhood.
