Description
Fully renovated historic home right in the heart of Leiden!
Looking for a charming historic residence that’s been completely modernized, right in the center of Leiden? This beautiful two-story upper apartment on the car-free Wolsteeg, in the highly sought-after Pieterswijk neighborhood, offers exactly that. Originally built around 1930, the property has recently undergone a full renovation—bringing today’s comfort, quality, and attention to detail into a classic setting. The kitchen, bathroom, electrical system, plasterwork, and flooring are all brand new.
The home is fully insulated: the roof has been largely replaced with high-quality insulation and waterproofing, and additional insulation has been added to the floors and walls. Double-glazed windows throughout contribute to excellent energy efficiency and indoor comfort. On top of that, the property features solar panels to further enhance its sustainability.
What truly sets this home apart is the spacious, south-facing rooftop terrace—an ideal sunny and peaceful retreat, right in the middle of the city.
Located in the Pieterswijk, one of Leiden’s oldest and most picturesque neighborhoods, the Wolsteeg is a peaceful, car-free street nestled between Breestraat and Langebrug. It exudes the charm of historic Leiden while keeping you right at the center of it all.
Shops, supermarkets, cozy cafés, restaurants, museums, and theaters are all just a short stroll away. University buildings, the LUMC hospital, the Hortus Botanicus, and Leiden Central Station are also within easy reach. Whether you're a student, a working professional, or simply a city lover, this location is the perfect home base for everything you do.
