About Lammenschansweg 3, Leiden
The asking price is 25% above the neighbourhood average of €859,231, but the median asking price in Tuinstadwijk is €1,024,000, so it is in the upper range. Given the large floor area (198 m²) and the classic 1932 build, the price reflects the premium for a spacious period home. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the character and space.
The energy label is D. That is typical for a pre-war house of this era. It means the home is not as energy-efficient as modern builds, so heating costs will be higher than with an A or B label. The neighbourhood has 36% of homes with label D or lower, so this is common for the area.
Tuinstadwijk has a good mix of families and singles, with about a third of households having children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area has a park nearby. However, one resident mentioned that dog owners sometimes leave mess on the grass where children play, so it is something to be aware of.
