Lage Mors, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Roemer Visscherstraat sits in the heart of Lage Mors, a neighbourhood that feels like a small town within the city. At €325,000, it's the cheapest of the 15 homes currently for sale in the area and 35% below the average asking price of €502,733, a keen entry point for anyone looking to buy in Leiden. For context, apartments in Leiden vary widely, but this one stands out for its affordability.
Lage Mors is a densely populated urban neighbourhood with over 4,400 residents, many living alone (1,105 single-person households). The one review available sums it up: "Going downhill fast", the resident notes that "it used to be a very pleasant neighbourhood. Nowadays, nobody considers others anymore. The maintenance by the municipality and of private gardens is also very poor." That said, the neighbourhood Lage Mors has a park or public garden just a couple of streets away, and the area scores a 6 out of 10 overall. It's a mixed bag: lots of young adults (25-45) and older residents (65+), with a fair share of families too.
For daily errands, Jumbo is on your doorstep, and there are several schools within a five-minute walk: De Morskring, Eerste Leidse Schoolvereniging, and Basisschool Pacelli. The municipality Leiden offers plenty of restaurants and a GP practice just around the corner. The train station is a ten-minute walk away, making commutes easy. It's a practical, well-connected spot for everyday life.

About Roemer Visscherstraat 6A, Leiden
At €325,000, this is the cheapest of the 15 homes currently for sale in Lage Mors and 35% below the neighbourhood average of €502,733. However, the floor area (54 m²) is 44% smaller than the average of 97 m², and the energy label is F, which means high heating costs. The price reflects the size and energy efficiency, so it's in line with what you'd expect for a compact, older apartment.
The energy label is F, which is very poor. This means the home has high energy consumption, so you can expect significant heating bills. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older building (built in 1932). You may want to consider energy-saving improvements, but the listing does not state any recent upgrades.
Lage Mors is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. The one resident review describes it as "going downhill fast," citing poor maintenance and a lack of consideration among neighbours. However, it has a park nearby and good access to shops and schools. The overall score is 6 out of 10, so it's a mixed experience.
Jumbo supermarket is just 446 m away, and there are three primary schools within a five-minute walk: De Morskring (167 m), Eerste Leidse Schoolvereniging (265 m), and Basisschool Pacelli (278 m). A GP practice is 600 m away, and the train station is 1.6 km, a ten-minute walk. Restaurants and a park are also close by.
This apartment is priced well below the average for Lage Mors, but it's also smaller and has a poor energy label. In Leiden as a whole, apartment prices vary, but this is one of the most affordable options currently available in this neighbourhood. The low price reflects the trade-offs in size and energy efficiency.
It's an apartment with 54 m² of living space, built in 1932. The layout is not described, so you would need to view the property to see the arrangement.
