Description
Attention all boating enthusiasts!
This is a rare opportunity. A spacious detached villa (276 m² of living area) on a large plot (575 m²), situated directly on the Rhine waterway, is now for sale. It includes a heated boathouse (262 m²) with space for 8 vessels and two electrically operated roller doors. From here, you can sail straight to the center of Leiden, the Kagerplassen lakes, or the 'Groene Hart' (Green Heart) region. And that’s not all: there is even an option to purchase an additional house (Hoge Morsweg 112A, built in 2002) located at the front of the villa, featuring 132 m² of living space and a gas-free setup (energy label A).
The villa (built in 1978) also features a spacious L-shaped living and dining room, 25 solar panels, private parking for 5 cars, 5 bedrooms, 4 toilets, 2 modern bathrooms, a hobby room/office, a laundry room, a loggia, and a generous 44 m² roof terrace—ideally southwest-facing with an unobstructed view of the Rhine waterway.
It is located in the quiet, very child-friendly, and water-rich 'Morskwartier' residential area. The extensive Diamantplein shopping center and the recently renovated Stevensbloem center—where you can do your daily shopping—are both within a 5-minute bike ride. The 'Morskwartier' neighborhood offers several good primary schools, playgrounds, and various sports clubs (soccer, tennis, rugby), as well as the '3 Octoberhal' sports complex, which hosts many indoor sports and activities. The 'Morskwartier' neighborhood is located less than a 10-minute bike ride from Leiden's historic city center, and both Leiden Central Station and Vink Station (in the Stevenshof district) can be reached within a few minutes. Major arterial roads—the A4, A44, and N11—are accessible within a 5- to 10-minute drive. Additionally, the property is ideally situated for access to the coast; you can be at the beach within 15 minutes.
Layout
Driveway and front garden with space for multiple cars; access door to an internal storage room and an integral garage (also accessible via an overhead door). The ground floor spans a total of 306 m² and comprises—in addition to the storage room and garage—a separate toilet, a boiler room, a multi-purpose room, and a spacious, heated, and illuminated boathouse (262 m²) suitable for eight boats, featuring two electrically operated roller doors and direct access to the waterway.
Covered entrance, hallway with meter cupboard and a fixed staircase leading to the living level.
First floor
Spacious hall/landing with a coat area and toilet. A hallway to the right leads to a modern bathroom (featuring a bath/shower combination, washbasin, designer radiator, and toilet), a study (which could also serve as a fifth bedroom), and a spacious bedroom located at the front. A hallway to the left, featuring built-in closets, provides access to two spacious front-facing bedrooms (both with washbasins), a separate laundry room, and the large master bedroom at the rear; the latter features sliding doors opening onto the roof terrace and a modern en-suite bathroom equipped with a walk-in shower, washbasin unit, and designer radiator. The bright (thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows) and expansive L-shaped living-dining room—situated on the water side and featuring a wood-burning fireplace—provides access to a loggia, a spacious kitchen (with a view of the Rhine), and a generous, sheltered 44 m² roof terrace with outdoor sun blinds, ideally positioned facing southwest. Here, you can relax in the sun while enjoying the unobstructed view and passing boats. There are an additional 25 solar panels installed on the flat roof.
