Welcome to Volmolengracht, where you’ll find this wonderfully bright 2-bedroom apartment on the top floor of a small-scale residential complex. Located in the heart of Leiden’s historic city centre, this apartment offers peace and quiet with all the city’s amenities right at your doorstep. Think: Leiden Central Station, LUMC, charming cafés, museums, shops, and the nearby Huigpark. Even the supermarket is just a short walk away.
Layout:
The secure, shared entrance on the ground floor gives access to a private storage room – perfect for bikes or extra belongings. A staircase leads up to the third (and top) floor where the apartment is located.
Step inside to a hallway that connects to all rooms. One of the first things you'll notice is the abundance of natural light and the spacious feel throughout the home.
At the front of the apartment, the bright and inviting living room features large windows with beautiful views over Leiden’s city centre. The open kitchen seamlessly connects to the living area and is fitted with a ceramic cooktop, dishwasher, stainless steel extractor hood, ceramic sink, and a Belgian bluestone countertop. Just behind the kitchen is a practical pantry/utility room with space for a fridge-freezer, the central heating boiler, and washing machine – all neatly tucked away.
Back in the hallway, you’ll find a separate toilet with a sink and light tiling, as well as a modern bathroom featuring stylish tiles, a walk-in shower, and a vanity unit.
At the rear of the apartment are the two bedrooms. The primary bedroom includes a built-in wardrobe and direct access to the west-facing balcony. The second bedroom is compact yet versatile – ideal as a guest room, home office, or walk-in closet – and also features built-in storage.
Details like the charming Portuguese tiles in the hallway and kitchen give the apartment extra personality. The interior has recently been painted, so it's move-in ready. The rest of the apartment features a beautiful light wooden floor that adds warmth and a calm, cohesive feel.
