Vitruviusstraat 182

The asking price is above the neighbourhood average of €699,500 and the median of €699,500. However, this home is larger than average (168 m² vs 145 m²) and has an exceptional A+ energy label, which reduces monthly energy costs. The price per square metre works out at about €4,732, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €5,174 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting more space and better efficiency.

An A+ label is among the best you can get. It means the home is very well insulated and energy-efficient, so heating and electricity costs will be low compared to older homes. In Roomburg, all homes for sale currently have label A, but none have A+, so this one is a standout. You can expect comfortable indoor temperatures without high energy bills.

Roomburg is well suited to families. Around 500 households have children, and there are several primary schools within walking distance, including De Bernardusschool and Basisschool St. Joseph. The area has a park just 200 metres away, and the streets are quiet. The mix of owner-occupied homes (74%) and single-family houses (54%) gives it a stable, family-oriented character.

Leiden Centraal station is 3.1 km from the house, which is about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. The station offers direct connections to Amsterdam, The Hague, and other major cities. For daily commuting, cycling is the most convenient option.

The nearest supermarket is a SPAR at 735 metres, just around the corner. A Lidl and a PLUS are within a 10- to 15-minute walk. For a wider selection, the centre of Leiden is a short bike ride away, with many specialty shops and markets. Daily groceries are easily covered without a car.

Yes, the property has a plot of 141 m², which includes a private garden. The exact size and layout of the garden are not detailed in the listing, but it offers outdoor space for relaxation or gardening. Given the house is from 2008, the garden is likely well-maintained and low-maintenance.

The listing does not specify the number of bedrooms. With 168 m² of living space spread over multiple floors, it is reasonable to expect at least three or four bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent for exact room counts.

The listing does not mention a garage or dedicated parking. Vitruviusstraat is a residential street, so on-street parking is likely available. Leiden has a permit system for some areas, so you may need to apply for a resident parking permit. Check with the municipality for specific rules.
