On Zijlsingel 75, you literally live on the boundary between lively and peaceful. Within just a few minutes, you can walk into the center of Leiden for shops, restaurants, or the train station, while at home you are just outside the hustle and bustle. This makes the location attractive if you want to live centrally, but also value a pleasant and quiet residential environment with a view of a small green park.
This weaver’s house from the early 1900s has been modernized in recent years. The current owners have made significant investments, including the main roof, relocating the staircase, and installing a herringbone floor on the ground floor. A sheltered and pleasant garden, where birds fly from tree to tree and cheerfully chirp you awake in the morning, are some of the distinctive features of this characterful home.
