Alfabetweg 27

A modern apartment in Cronestein, Leiden

This apartment on Alfabetweg sits in a neighbourhood that has been almost entirely rebuilt in the last decade. The listing does not state a year of construction, so the exact age of the building is not known. At €672,500, the asking price is 20% above the neighbourhood average of €558,750, which puts it on the high side, but the A+ energy label and 102 m² of space are strong selling points. For context, apartments in Leiden vary widely in price and size.
