Caeciliastraat 12312 XB LeidenDe Camp

Spacious upper apartment with monumental character, two roof terraces, and ample development opportunities in the heart of Leiden Located right in the historic center of Leiden, in a spot where the city reveals its most vibrant and characterful side, this spacious upper apartment of approximately 125 m² is situated on Caeciliastraat. From the property, you look directly onto the Turfmarkt, the Galgewater, and towards the Beestenmarkt: an inner-city setting that rarely gets boring. This municipal monument from around 1850 is not a move-in ready home, but a property with volume, history, views, and possibilities. A buyer looking beyond the current state will see here the foundation for a luxury urban gem in an exceptional location. For owner-occupancy, for a combination of living and rental, or as an investment with multiple rooms/studios: the layout and size offer various scenarios. The upper apartment is situated on the first and second floors and was created from three adjacent buildings. As a result, the property features a surprising floor plan, multiple living functions, two roof terraces, and various spaces that lend themselves perfectly to redevelopment or reconfiguration. Layout and potential uses The entrance is located on Caeciliastraat. On the first floor, there is, among other things, a self-contained living space comprising a living room, open kitchen, separate toilet, bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and access to a roof terrace via a sliding door. Adjacent to this, a long hallway leads to several rooms and amenities. These include a bedroom with a mezzanine and skylights, a bathroom with toilet and shower, a fully equipped kitchen, a landing with washing machine setup, and a spacious bedroom with a kitchenette. This room offers a beautiful view of the canal and the lively city center. The second, sunny, and spacious roof terrace is accessible via the landing. Additionally, there is access to an attic and to a self-contained studio with its own kitchen, bathroom, and mezzanine. Here too, the sightlines towards the water and the city create a unique living experience. Suitable for owner-occupancy, rental, or a combination thereof. The strength of this property lies in its flexibility. Consider a spacious townhouse for personal use, where an older child can live independently within the same building. Or a combination of owner-occupancy and rental. Full development for the purpose of room rentals is also a possibility; a permit for room rentals has already been granted in concept. Additionally, the division into independent apartments can be explored. The recently established Owners' Association offers new owners the opportunity to properly shape the structure, agreements, and future of the building from the very beginning. Character and renovation The building dates from around 1850 and features authentic and characteristic elements that, with careful renovation, can actually contribute to the appearance and value of the whole. Its monumental status gives the building extra identity and makes it an object with history, presence, and lasting scarcity in the city center. At the same time, it is clear that the entire property requires attention, maintenance, and renovation. This calls for a buyer with vision, resources, and a sense of quality. Anyone willing to invest in finishing, layout, and sustainability can realize a unique property here in a location that is virtually impossible to duplicate.
