About Steenbakkerslaan 18, Leiderdorp
The asking price of €525,000 is above the average sold price of €463,800 in Zijlkwartier. However, only five homes have sold recently, so the market is thin. The house is a 1930s terraced home with 111 m² and a 128 m² plot, which is a desirable combination in this neighbourhood. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the location and the potential for modernisation.
The energy label is D, which is average for a house of this age. It means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. You may want to consider improvements like insulation or double glazing to reduce energy bills.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, which is about a ten-minute drive or a 45-minute walk.
There are several schools within walking distance. Daltonschool De Leeuwerik (primary) is about 500 m away, and De Springplank (primary) is 665 m. For secondary education, Marecollege is 665 m away, and there is also a special education school, P.C. Hooftcollege VSO, at 601 m.
Zijlkwartier has a low crime rate, with only 24 total offences recorded. The neighbourhood is quiet and family-oriented, with a park nearby. It feels safe, though as with any urban area, it is always wise to take usual precautions.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size of 128 m² suggests there is outdoor space.
