Fortuinwijk-Noord, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Debussystraat sits in a leafy part of Leiden, where the streets are calm and the neighbours know each other. With 134 m² of living space and a 117 m² plot, it's a roomy home for a family or anyone who wants space to spread out. The asking price of €575,000 is well above the neighbourhood average of €337,567, but then this home is 91% larger than the typical 70 m² house in the area, so the price per square metre is actually in line with what you'd expect.
