Oostvliet, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis detached home on Vlietpark sits in a leafy part of Leiden, with a huge plot that gives you plenty of outdoor space. At 50 m² the house itself is compact, but the 27,270 m² garden is exceptional, a rare find in the city. Priced at €275,000, that works out to €5,500 per m², which is keen given the enormous plot. For comparison, detached houses in Leiden typically sell for more per square metre of living space.
Oostvliet is a small, quiet neighbourhood with 375 residents, mostly singles and couples. It has a suburban feel, with a park just a couple of streets away. There are no resident reviews available, but the area is known for its green surroundings and low-rise housing. The neighbourhood Oostvliet is moderately urban, with an address density of 1,108 per km², so it's calm but not isolated.
For daily shopping, you have Hoogvliet about a ten-minute walk away, and PLUS and AH XL a bit further. Schools are within walking distance too: Het Vlietland College is just around the corner, and Montessorischool Apollo is a five-minute walk. The municipality Leiden offers all city amenities, but here you're in a green pocket with the park on your doorstep.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Goedhart Makelaars en Taxateurs.
