Gasthuiswijk, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis listing does not state the year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. The apartment is a well-sized rental in the Gasthuiswijk, with an A++ energy label and a monthly rent of €2,295. That is slightly above the average for apartments in Leiden, but the high efficiency and central location help explain the premium.
Gasthuiswijk is a lively, urban area with a very high address density. Two residents have shared their experiences. One says: "Living here is fantastic. Beautiful, spacious and affordable apartment with 90m2 floor area. Indoor route to the supermarket. GP and the usual shops like Etos, Kruidvat, Bruna, Hema on the nearby square. Bus lines and main roads within 5 minutes. Also enough schools at every level. In short, 'a place to be'." Another notes: "A fine neighbourhood. Sometimes things happen but it's often resolved." The area is home to many singles and young adults, with a mix of rental and owner-occupied homes. For more context, see the Gasthuiswijk neighbourhood.
Your daily shopping is easy: Hoogvliet, Lidl and AH XL are all just a couple of streets away. For primary education, De Astronaut is a five-minute walk, and Montessorischool Apollo is just around the corner. Secondary options include Het Vlietland College, also within a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Leiden, which offers a wide range of cultural and recreational amenities.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Rotsvast Nederland, Rotsvast Delft & Rotterdam, and Rotsvast Makelaardij. The agent has not published the year of construction, so that detail remains unknown.

About Rooseveltstraat 227, Leiden
The rent is €2,295 for 80 m², which works out to about €28.69 per m². That is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €28.29 per m², but the A++ energy label means very low energy costs, which offsets the higher base rent. Homes in this area are rented out quickly, typically within 17 days, so the market is active.
The energy label is A++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with excellent insulation and likely a heat pump or similar modern system. Your heating and electricity bills will be very low compared to older homes.
