Evertsenstraat 132315 SH LeidenDe Waard

An upper-floor apartment in the popular Zeeheldenbuurt: bright, private, and ready to move straight into. A spacious layout over three floors, with generous extra space for storage. Located on Evertsenstraat, the property enjoys a peaceful residential setting. A dedicated ground-floor entrance gives the residence the independent feel of a house rather than a typical apartment. The living space spans approximately 73m², including a living room, a dining room, a kitchen, a toilet, a bathroom, a master bedroom, and a second bedroom (or a multifunction room). Beyond its stylish design, the interior features generous storage space throughout, such as a wall-mounted TV cabinet (approx. 190×49×25cm) in the living room and various built-in cabinets and closets in the kitchen, toilet, bathroom, and bedrooms. Ready for the next chapter, the owner has cherished and taken good care of this lovely home. Large, double-glazing windows in almost every room keep the interior fresh and bright throughout the day. Moreover, they frame charismatic views. The front features views of Evertsenstraat and the historic Meelfabriek, and the rear enjoys an unobstructed view of the garden and its changing seasonal colours. The property offers substantial space beyond its main living area. The south-facing balcony (approx. 6.1m²) overlooks the garden and is directly accessible from the kitchen. The attic, covering the entire top floor (a peak ceiling height of 2.4m and floor area approx. 19.3m²) and accessible via a hatch, provides generous indoor storage. At the rear, there is an extensive, shared garden. Within this garden, the property has a separate, dedicated storage room (approx. 5.5m²). The Zeeheldenbuurt is beloved for its balanced lifestyle: a quiet neighbourhood next to the Zijlsingel, and only a short stroll from Leiden’s historic center. Daily necessities and charming landmarks are close by. Leiden Central Station is just a ten-minute bike ride away, with quick access to the A4 and A44 motorways. An attractive, spacious home for anyone seeking comfortable, convenient living close to the heart of Leiden. LAYOUT Ground floor: Private entrance at street level with a hallway and stairs leading to the upper floor. First floor: Landing with a separate toilet and living room. The bright, through-living room spans nearly the entire length of the property, offering plenty of space for living and dining setups. At the rear, next to the dining area, the stylish kitchen comes equipped with built-in appliances (gas hob, extractor hood, combi-oven) and opens directly onto a south-facing balcony that spans the entire width of the property and overlooks the shared garden. Second floor: Landing leading to all rooms. The main, front bedroom is generously sized, providing ample space for a double bed and additional wardrobes. At the rear sits the second room - currently set up for a dressing and laundry room - while it can easily function as a second bedroom, a home office, or hobby space. Both rooms have built-in closets, offering plenty of storage space. The bathroom features stylish white-and-dark tiling, a shower enclosure, a wide vanity unit with storage, a mirrored wardrobe, a towel rack, and a radiator. With large, foiled windows, this bathroom provides a special combination: privacy, natural light, and fresh air. Third floor: The attic - accessible via a hatch and housing the central heating boiler - is a generous bonus space occupying the entire top floor. With a peak ceiling height of 2.4m and approximately 19.3m² of floor area, it offers great potential. Exterior: At the rear of the property are the storage units, including a private storage unit of approximately 5.5 m², ideal for storing bicycles, tools, furniture, and other items.
