About Rijn En Schiekade 95A, Leiden
At €450,000, this apartment is the cheapest of the 7 homes currently for sale in Vreewijk and 26% below the average asking price of €606,143 in the neighbourhood. Given the 113 m² floor area and the central location, it's priced keenly compared to other listings. However, the energy label D and the 1880 construction year mean you should factor in higher energy costs and potential maintenance.
Vreewijk is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses. It has a mix of students, young adults and older residents. Most homes are owner-occupied, and all buildings date from before 1945. The area is lively and central, with shops, schools and the train station within walking distance. There are no resident reviews available, but the location is convenient for city life.
The train station is 1.3 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes commuting to other cities like The Hague or Amsterdam straightforward.
The closest supermarket is SPAR at 584 m, just around the corner. Lidl and Ekoplaza are about 700 m away, and Hoogvliet and AH XL are within 900 m. So daily groceries are easily done on foot.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Basisschool De Ley and Leimundo are both 378 m away, OBS Lucas van Leyden at 464 m, and Haanstra Basisschool at 495 m. Secondary education is 1.6 km away.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. Given the 1880 construction year, insulation may be limited.
