Houtmarkt 122312 PZ LeidenNoordvest

At Houtmarkt, you live in one of the most charming locations in Leiden: right by the water, in the heart of the city, yet wonderfully peaceful. From here, you can walk straight into the Singelpark or cross the Singelpark Bridge to the Blekerspark and other green parks surrounding the city center. All shops, supermarkets, cafés, and restaurants are within walking distance, so everything you need is close at hand. The house is fully move-in ready and neatly finished. The high ceilings and smooth plastered walls give the living room a spacious and bright feel. The modern open kitchen connects seamlessly with the living area, creating a comfortable space to cook, dine, and relax. From the kitchen, you step into the backyard—a green city oasis facing west, with a brick storage shed. Here you can enjoy the sun from early afternoon until late in the day. The garden also has a back entrance. On the first floor, there are two spacious bedrooms and a well-kept bathroom. Above, a practical attic with standing height and plenty of storage space is accessible via a loft ladder—ideal for storage or as an extra area for those who like to make creative use of the layout. The house has been designated by the Municipality of Leiden as a characteristic property: a home with history and charm, yet completely ready for modern living. A wonderful home for first-time buyers, small families, or expats looking for comfort, atmosphere, and a central location in Leiden.
