It is about the sense of tranquillity you experience when entering the street, the natural light that fills the house, and the ease with which a home adapts to your lifestyle. At Paardentramhof 4, all of this comes together. This contemporary semi-detached house, built in 2016, offers 136 m² of living space, an energy rating of A, and a location that is rare to find in Leiden. Tucked away peacefully in Vreewijk, while the historic city centre is just a few minutes' walk away. Here, you can enjoy modern, energy-efficient and comfortable living without compromising on space or location. It is a place where the energy of the city and the familiarity of your own home come together effortlessly. The architecture of the house perfectly reflects the period in which it was built. Clean lines, large windows and a clever layout create a home that is not only bright and well organised, but also makes excellent use of the available space. The property has a strong architectural presence, while also being charming and playful, with a subtle nod to older architectural styles. There are no complicated renovations or endless DIY projects required here; this is a contemporary home that can easily be given your own personal atmosphere. The name Paardentramhof may suggest horses and trams, but these have been replaced by peace, space and modern living around a charming courtyard. Two stylish semi-detached houses form a small and well-maintained residential setting, giving the street an almost village-like character right in the heart of the city. Children can literally play hopscotch on the square here, and because cars do not drive through the courtyard, they can do so safely and carefree. Parking is easy along Blauwe Tramstraat, where ample parking is available for both residents and visitors. The result is a peaceful and well-organised residential environment with a distinctly family-friendly character. Ground floor Behind the front door, you will find a home with surprisingly spacious living areas. The entrance hall provides space for a wardrobe and access to the utility meter cupboard, modern toilet and staircase to the upper floors. The living space that follows extends across the full length of the house and is pleasantly bright thanks to the generous windows on both sides. At the rear, an inviting seating area has been created around the wood-burning open fireplace. The combination of the sleek fireplace surround, warm flooring and contemporary finishes creates an interior with plenty of atmosphere. The full-width glass façade with French doors allows the living room to flow seamlessly into the rear garden. The large rooflight also brings additional daylight into the home, ensuring that this room remains pleasantly bright even on less sunny days. Just like the ground-floor interior, the rear garden deserves a compliment. The connection between indoors and outdoors is particularly appealing. The south-facing garden has been beautifully landscaped with large natural stone tiles, warm brick accents and plenty of greenery. This low-maintenance outdoor space feels thoughtfully designed and wonderfully secluded. There is ample room for a comfortable lounge area and dining table. A veranda provides an additional outdoor living space, effectively turning the garden into an extension of the living room. At the rear is a practical shed, while the lush greenery provides plenty of privacy and creates a beautiful backdrop. At the front of the house, the atmosphere is completely different, thanks to the direct connection with the courtyard. This is where you will find the modern kitchen. The sleek white kitchen features two straight runs, plenty of workspace and abundant storage. Naturally, all the necessary built-in appliances are included. Thanks to the open connection with the living room, there is always a sense of connection with the rest of the house. This is exactly what a family kitchen should be. First floor The first floor once again demonstrates that comfort does not have to be complicated. From the landing, you can access three full-sized bedrooms and the bathroom. Every room benefits from large windows, creating bright, open and pleasant spaces. The bedroom at the front is spacious enough for a double bed and a large wardrobe, and features two playful floor-to-ceiling windows. The second bedroom is currently used as a home office and guest room, but demonstrates just how flexible this home is. Whether you want a quiet office, a comfortable guest room or a lovely children's bedroom, the choice is entirely yours. Thanks to its practical dimensions, the room can easily be arranged in different ways. The view over the sedum roof on the extension below adds a sense of greenery, while also improving insulation and contributing to a quieter interior. The third bedroom is also bright and would be ideal as a child's bedroom, hobby room or additional workspace. The bathroom complements the contemporary style of the house beautifully. Large anthracite-coloured floor tiles and warm concrete-look wall tiles give the space a luxurious appearance. The bathroom features both a bathtub and a separate shower, as well as a modern vanity unit, heated towel rail, underfloor heating and a second toilet. Natural daylight enters through the high-level window, while privacy is fully maintained. This floor also demonstrates the high standard of finish throughout the home. The neutral colour palette, modern interior doors and continuous flooring create a strong sense of unity. It is a floor that can effortlessly adapt to your needs. Second floor The second floor is truly a private retreat. Thanks to the high ridge and exposed roof structure, this level has a wonderfully spacious character, while the sloping rooflines add warmth and atmosphere. The generous master bedroom provides ample space for a large double bed and a dedicated workspace. It also features a custom-built wall of wardrobes, beautifully integrated into the room. Additional storage space has been created behind the knee walls, ideal for keeping belongings neatly out of sight. The high ceiling and pleasant natural light give this bedroom a calm, almost hotel-like feel. A particularly attractive feature is the second bathroom on this floor. It is modern and equipped with a shower, vanity unit and dormer window, which provides additional daylight and natural ventilation. This is ideal for a family with older children, or simply for those who appreciate the luxury of having their own private bathroom. Practicality has also been carefully considered. This floor includes a spacious utility/technical room with connections for the washing machine and dryer, as well as the central heating system and mechanical ventilation. This floor truly completes the home. Not only because of the additional square metres, but especially because the layout has been thoughtfully designed around everyday family life. A comfortable master bedroom with its own bathroom and plenty of storage space — exactly what you would expect from a modern family home built in 2016. The neighbourhood Anyone who knows Leiden knows that the neighbourhood is just as important as the house itself. TeVreewijk is one of those hidden parts of the city that you are unlikely to discover by chance. This small-scale new-build neighbourhood was developed in 2016 on the site of a former railway shunting yard and consists of just 64 single-family homes. Its intimate character is immediately noticeable upon arrival. The streets are quiet, well organised and have a friendly, village-like atmosphere, while the historic city centre is literally within walking distance. The neighbourhood is a beautiful interpretation of the characteristic architecture of central Leiden. Varied façades, warm brickwork and charming courtyards give the area a distinctive identity. It is precisely this combination that makes TeVreewijk so special. On the one hand, you can walk into the lively city centre within minutes and enjoy everything Leiden has to offer. On the other hand, the De Ruigte nature area is virtually around the corner. This is a surprisingly green part of Leiden where the hustle and bustle of the city feels far away. The location is also strategically excellent. Supermarkets, schools, childcare facilities, sports clubs and Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) are all nearby. Leiden Central Station and Leiden Lammenschans railway station are easily accessible by bicycle, while the major roads towards the A4, N11 and A44 provide quick connections to The Hague, Amsterdam, Utrecht and Schiphol Airport. TeVreewijk is exactly what many people are looking for, but rarely find: a modern, sustainable residential neighbourhood with character, built on a historic site, where the dynamism of the city and the tranquillity of a small-scale neighbourhood are perfectly balanced.
