About Kijfgracht 18, Leiden
The asking price is 23% above the neighbourhood average of €485,500, but the home is also 80% larger than the typical 50 m² in Havenwijk-Zuid. Given the size and central location, the price reflects a premium for extra space in a sought-after area.
Havenwijk-Zuid is a very urban, historic area with a high density of addresses. It's popular with young professionals and students, and has a lively atmosphere. The housing stock is mostly pre-war apartments, so this townhouse is a relative rarity.
The home has an energy label B, which is good for a house built in 1903. It means reasonable insulation and lower energy costs compared to older, unlabelled homes. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A+ and 50% have D or lower, so this is above average.
Primary school De Pionier is 424 m away, and secondary school Bonaventura College Burggravenlaan is 753 m. There are also several other schools within walking distance, making it convenient for families.
