At the edge of Leiden’s city center, you’ll find Oosterstraat 12: a ground-floor apartment of approximately 55 m² that’s completely move-in ready. Ideal as a first home!
You’ll be living literally within walking distance of the city center. Grab a coffee around the corner, head out for a spontaneous dinner in the evening, and then relax on the couch at home with Netflix—while still enjoying the peace and quiet of your own street. That contrast is what makes this location so special: the vibrancy of the city within easy reach, yet a comfortable and tranquil place to call home.
Through the entrance, you step into the hallway with the meter cupboard and continue into the living room. What immediately stands out are the decorative ceilings and sleek finish. The space feels bright and open, with plenty of room for a generous sofa to sink into after a long workday. Thanks to the underfloor heating (installed in 2022), the home remains comfortable all year round.
The open kitchen, laid out in a straight-line design, connects seamlessly to the living area. It is equipped with a 4-burner gas stove, oven, extractor hood, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer combination. Whether you’re preparing an elaborate dinner for friends or quickly putting something together after work, everything you need is here.
In the practical storage cupboard, you’ll find the washing machine connection and the central heating system (installed in 2021). Cleverly tucked away, so your living space remains truly dedicated to living.
The bedroom is located at the rear of the property and feels pleasantly quiet. The skylight, which can be opened, provides beautiful natural light and additional ventilation. The modern bathroom is sleekly finished and features a walk-in shower with a thermostatic mixer tap. There is also a separate toilet room with a vanity unit.
Technically, the property is in great condition as well. It has energy label C, HR++ double glazing, facade insulation, and in 2023 the window frames were replaced with low-maintenance uPVC. This means better insulation, less upkeep, and a comfortable indoor climate.
