Transvaalbuurt, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis 1928 terraced house on De Wetstraat sits in the Transvaalbuurt, a neighbourhood with a mixed, student-friendly vibe. With 110 m² of living space and a 149 m² plot, it is noticeably larger than the average home in the area. The price of €625,000 is 51% above the neighbourhood average of €414,800, which reflects the extra space and the energy label B. For comparison, terraced houses in Leiden vary widely in price and size.
The Transvaalbuurt is a dense, urban neighbourhood (over 4,000 addresses per km²) with a young population: many students and singles. Based on two reviews, residents give it a 7.6 out of 10. One resident calls it "a typical student neighbourhood" and notes that "it is reasonably safe as long as all doors remain closed." Another describes it as "a cosy good neighbourhood" with nice people, adding that "sometimes bikes are stolen, but no major burglaries." The neighbourhood Transvaalbuurt has a mix of pre-war housing and a lively street scene.
For your morning bread, you have an AH to go and an Aldi just around the corner, and a Jumbo a couple of streets away. The Eerste Leidse Schoolvereniging primary school is a five-minute walk, and De Morskring is also within easy reach. The municipality Leiden offers a train station a ten-minute walk away, plus a GP and a supermarket within walking distance, as one resident mentioned.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Makelaarsgilde REMAX and also on Vastgoed Nederland, so it is available through several channels.

The neighbourhood is quite simple along a road, and there are often students outside in the evenings. It is reasonably safe as long as all doors remain closed.
