Korte Mare

A home on Korte Mare

This listing is for a home on Korte Mare in Leiden, but it does not state a house number, postcode, property type, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €275,000, the asking price is 61% below the neighbourhood average of €702,727, which is striking but hard to interpret without knowing the size or type of the property. For context, homes in Leiden vary widely in price.
