At €345,000, the asking price is 17% below the neighbourhood average of €414,800, making it a keenly priced option compared to other terraced houses in Leiden.
The Transvaalbuurt is a dense, urban area with a very strong city feel (over 4,000 addresses per km²). It's home to a mix of students and young professionals, nearly half the residents are between 15 and 45. Two residents describe it as "a typical student neighbourhood" and "a cosy good neighbourhood". One notes: "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." Another adds: "It is a safe neighbourhood with nice people, I have never had any bad experiences, but sometimes bikes are stolen, but no major burglaries." The neighbourhood Transvaalbuurt has a high proportion of single-person households (880 out of 1,275), and most homes are pre-war.
For your morning bread, you have an AH to go and an Aldi just around the corner, with a Jumbo a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Eerste Leidse Schoolvereniging, is a five-minute walk, and there are several others within a ten-minute stroll. The train station is also a ten-minute walk, handy for commutes. The municipality Leiden offers plenty of restaurants and a park within walking distance.
