Frequently asked questions

About Mauritsstraat 12B, Leiden

Is €249,000 a fair price for this studio?

At €249,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Noorderkwartier and 48% below the neighbourhood average of €482,885. However, the floor area is 64% smaller than the average (88 m²). The price per m² works out to about €7,781, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,012 per m², so you are paying a premium for the compact size.

What is the energy label and what does it mean?

How far is the train station?

The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though not on your doorstep.

What is the neighbourhood like for safety?

Noorderkwartier recorded 305 total crimes in the latest data. With a population of 5,705, that works out to about 53 crimes per 1,000 residents. It is an urban area, so some crime is expected, but residents generally describe it positively.

Are there many families in the area?

Noorderkwartier has a mix: 1,675 one-person households and 735 households with children. The average household size is 1.8, so it is not a typical family neighbourhood, but there are families around. The area has a young vibe with many residents aged 25-45.

What is the property type and layout?

This is a studio, meaning it is a single open-plan living/sleeping space with a separate kitchen and bathroom. The floor area is 32 m², so it is compact and best suited for a single person or a couple who value location over space.
