Noorderkwartier, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis 1915 terraced house on Sophiastraat sits in the Noorderkwartier, a neighbourhood with a village feel just north of the city centre. With 87 m² of living space and a 74 m² plot, it's a compact but characterful home. The asking price of €500,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €485,000, but it reflects the scarcity of terraced houses in Leiden.
The neighbourhood Noorderkwartier is densely built and very urban, with over 5,000 addresses per km². It's a mixed area: many singles and students, but also families with children. One resident says: "I don't really have an experience but there are many nice people." Another calls it "Super good neighbourhood." A third review is less positive, but overall the neighbourhood scores a 7.5 out of 10 based on three reviews.
Daily shopping is easy: an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Dirk is a couple of streets away. For school, De Pionier primary school is on your doorstep, and the Stedelijk Gymnasium is a five-minute walk. The municipality Leiden offers plenty of parks and restaurants within walking distance.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Hoekstra en van Eck, Pararius and Funda.

About Sophiastraat 4, Leiden
The asking price of €500,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €485,000 and the average of €482,885 for homes in Noorderkwartier. However, terraced houses are relatively rare in Leiden, and the home's 87 m² is close to the neighbourhood average of 88 m². The price per m² works out to about €5,747, which is a bit below the neighbourhood average of €6,012 per m².
The home has energy label D. This is less efficient than the newer homes in the area, but it's not unusual for a house built in 1915. In the neighbourhood, about 33% of homes have a label D or lower, while 37% have label A. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like insulation could help.
Leiden Centraal station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride.
There are several schools within walking distance. De Pionier primary school is just 78 metres away, and Vrije School Mareland is about 550 metres. For secondary education, the Stedelijk Gymnasium is 593 metres away. In total, there are 90 schools within 5 km.
The neighbourhood recorded 305 total crimes in the latest data, which is relatively high for a dense urban area. However, resident reviews are mixed: one says "Super good neighbourhood," while another mentions "Full of foreigners" with a negative tone. The average review score is 7.5 out of 10.
The listing does not mention a garden. The plot is 74 m², but that includes the footprint of the house, so outdoor space may be limited.
