About Oude Herengracht 18L, Leiden
The asking price of €182,500 is in line with what other apartments in Leiden go for. With 65 m² and an energy label D, it's priced competitively for a canal-side home in the city centre. You're paying for the location and the charm of a historic building, not for modern efficiency.
Energy label D means the apartment is not particularly energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home with label A or B. The building dates from 1973, so insulation is likely basic. It's worth factoring in potential energy costs when budgeting.
Leiden Centraal station is 1.9 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bus ride. The apartment is in the city centre, so you have good access to public transport, but the station is not on your doorstep.
