Description
A hidden gem on Utrecht's Veer!
This spacious ground floor flat with rear extension is located on the picturesque Nieuwe Rijn at the intersection with Herengracht – a characteristic municipal monument with original details. The attractive en-suite room, no fewer than five (bed)rooms and the green city garden make this an exceptionally spacious and versatile home with plenty of potential.
The location is just as attractive: the lively city centre of Leiden with its supermarkets, specialty shops, the Breestraat and Haarlemmerstraat, restaurants, the market and the Singelpark are only a few minutes' walk away. Lammenschans Station, Leiden Central Station, the LUMC and the Bio Science Park are also within easy reach by bicycle.
After many years of happy living, the current occupant is now lovingly handing over this special home to a new generation – ready to add the next chapters to the story of this elegant ground floor flat.
Layout
Upon entering, you first step into the spacious vestibule. Through a beautiful double door with richly etched Art Nouveau glass, you walk into the long hallway with marble flooring. On either side of the hallway are various rooms, and at the end, a door leads to the green city garden.
On the left side of the hallway is the beautiful living room en suite with the original sliding doors with cut glass. The front room with fireplace has a magnificent view over the Nieuwe Rijn and the back room, with gas fireplace, has a spacious walk-in cupboard and French doors to the garden. From this room, you can look out over the greenery and experience complete tranquillity in the middle of the city. The high ceilings reinforce the stately character that is so characteristic of this property.
On the right-hand side of the hallway, at the front, is a spacious room, also with a fireplace and a practical walk-in cupboard. This multifunctional space is ideal as an office, bedroom, television room or hobby room. There is also a door on the right-hand side leading to the basement (which has recently been waterproofed, with a ten-year guarantee).
Adjacent to this is a comfortable bedroom with its own washbasin and French doors to the garden – a wonderful place to step straight into the greenery in the morning. A marble hallway, located between the living room and this bedroom, leads to both the toilet and the kitchen.
From the kitchen, you enter a second hallway with another door to the garden. Here, on the left, is the bathroom, equipped with a toilet, washbasin, shower and underfloor heating, and straight ahead is an extra bedroom. Between the bathroom and this bedroom, a staircase leads to the upper floor of the rear section of the house, where there are two more bedrooms.
Garden
The spacious city garden of approximately 100 m² extends across the entire width of the property and enjoys a favourable south-facing position. This green oasis, tucked away in the heart of Leiden's city centre, offers an exceptional combination of tranquillity, privacy and space. The garden features a large, tiled terrace with multiple seating areas and is richly planted. There is also a practical storage room for garden equipment and tools.
