Pieterswijk, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis 1650s corner house sits in the heart of Leiden, right between the three student associations. The area buzzes with tourists by day and students by night, cosy, not disturbing, as one resident puts it. At €450,000, the asking price is 37% below the neighbourhood average of €716,500, which is keen given the compact 62 m² floor area. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Leiden vary widely in price and size.
The neighbourhood Pieterswijk is a lively central neighbourhood with a mix of association houses, owner-occupied homes and rentals. One resident says: "It's right in the centre of Leiden, between the 3 associations. There's not only daytime bustle from tourists but also in the evening from all the students walking through the neighbourhood. Personally, I find it very cosy and not disturbing." The same resident notes that getting around by car can be tricky due to restrictions and detours, and that greenery is mostly from residents rather than the municipality. The neighbourhood scores 6.88 out of 10 based on one review.
For daily shopping, Ekoplaza is on your doorstep, with SPAR and Hoogvliet just around the corner. Albert Heijn and Dirk are a five-minute walk away. Haanstra Basisschool is a couple of streets away, and OBS Lucas van Leyden is also within a five-minute walk. The municipality Leiden offers plenty of restaurants and cultural spots, with the Hortus and water nearby.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via RE/MAX.

It's right in the centre of Leiden, between the 3 associations. There's not only daytime bustle from tourists but also in the evening from all the students walking through the neighbourhood. Personally, I find it very cosy and not disturbing. Furthermore, there are plenty of nice little restaurants and a supermarket nearby. You live close to the water and the Hortus, so there's plenty to do. Unfortunately, getting into this neighbourhood by car is a bit of a course because you're not allowed everywhere and sometimes you have to take huge detours. In my opinion, there isn't enough greenery in the neighbourhood; we do have a park, but more trees could be planted in the streets and surroundings. Most of the greenery is often from the people who live there, not from the municipality. Otherwise, I'd say the housing situation is fine. There are some association houses, owner-occupied houses, and plenty of rental properties.
