About Zoeterwoudsesingel 20, Leiden
The asking price is the highest of the 13 homes currently for sale in Tuinstadwijk and sits 57% above the neighbourhood average of €859,231. However, this home is also much larger than average (299 m² vs 161 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €4,515, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,764 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting more space for your money.
The home has energy label D. That is a middling score, it means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs will be higher than in a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 35.7% of homes have label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for a house built in 1875.
Tuinstadwijk has a mix of households: about 30% of households have children, and 68% of homes are single-family houses, which suits families. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including OBS Lucas van Leyden and Haanstra Basisschool. The neighbourhood is very urban, with a high density of addresses, so it is not a quiet suburb but a lively city area.
Leiden Centraal station is about 700 metres away, a ten-minute walk. That gives you direct trains to Amsterdam, The Hague and Utrecht.
The neighbourhood recorded 141 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for a dense urban area. One resident review mentions that police are often around and that dog mess on the grass field is an issue. It is worth noting that this is a single review, so it may not reflect the whole picture.
The plot is 305 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden.
