A classic Leiden terraced house
This pre-war terraced house on Julianastraat sits in the Noorderkwartier, a lively neighbourhood just north of the city centre. With 135 m² of living space, it is 47% larger than the neighbourhood average of 92 m². The last known asking price of €595,000 was on the high side compared to the median of €522,500 in the area, but the extra space and central location explain the premium.

Energy label D is an official registration from EP-Online. In Noorderkwartier, 43.5% of homes for sale had label A, while 21.7% had label D or lower. The label did not tell you exactly what needed improvement, but it was a factor to consider in your running costs.

The energy label D suggests the heating or insulation may not be up to modern standards, but the exact state is not stated. A viewing would be needed to assess the maintenance level.
