Description

UNIQUE PROPERTY, UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE........

It concerns two apartment rights, namely a ground floor apartment with open kitchen with cooking island, living-dining room, study, double patio doors, back garden with canopy ideally located on the southwest (41 m²) and with bedrooms on the first and second floor (Valdezstraat 4) and an upper apartment on the first (with among others two bedrooms, bathroom and toilet) and second floor (Valdezstraat 4a). The two apartments (together 258 m²), originally built in 1915 on a plot of 141 m² are currently connected to each other and are used as one home, except for the second floor. This floor is now an independent unit (accessible via the front door of 4a) with two bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom and access to the roof (terrace). Previous renovations have taken into account that the ground floor and upper floor can easily be converted back into two independent apartments (original layout). In short, a unique object with multiple possibilities.

IT IS NOW OFFERED AS A WHOLE….

The Valdezstraat is a very quiet side street of the Schelpenkade. Here you will experience the benefits but not the burdens of the city centre. The house is located just outside the canal, in the quiet and child-friendly Tuinstadwijk, directly at the pleasant shopping streets Heren- and Doezastraat with various specialty shops, restaurants, local supermarket, hair salons and the like.

The historic city centre of Leiden is easily reached on foot or by bike. Parks such as the Plantsoen and the Cronesteyn polder park are also nearby. Various schools, daycare centres and playgrounds are in the immediate vicinity. In 5 minutes you can cycle to the Leiden Lammenschans railway station and within 10 minutes to the Leiden Centraal railway station. Access roads to the N11, A4 and A44 can be reached within a few minutes.

The historic city centre of Leiden is the second largest in the Netherlands and is known for its rich history with old canals, city gates, no fewer than 88 bridges, mills, small alleys, courtyards, a castle, Singelpark, museums and much more. Here you will find all kinds of urban facilities in a compact area. And did you know that Leiden has the most water flowing within its gates after Amsterdam; a total of 28 kilometres of canals and moats. It was not without reason that Leiden was ranked third among the most attractive cities to live in (Source: annual survey 'Atlas for municipalities' by research agency Atlas Research, May 2023)

Ground floor

Valdezstraat 4:
The ground floor apartment has a spacious, wide and garden-oriented living-dining room with underfloor heating. At the front is a modern open kitchen with various (built-in) appliances. At the rear there is also a study (this can easily be converted into a bedroom). Furthermore, there are patio doors to the garden. The sunny garden faces southwest and has a cozy veranda. Via a staircase you go inside to a landing with a bedroom on the first and also on the second floor. At the moment there is a passage to Valdezstraat 4a at the landing on the first floor.

Valdezstraat 4a:
Because part of this upper house is now in use together with the ground floor apartment, the layout is as follows: first floor: bathroom, toilet, bedroom at the rear, spacious intermediate space, very large bedroom with beautiful bay window at the front; second floor (independent unit): small bathroom, spacious kitchen, two bedrooms at the rear and bedroom/living room at the front and access to the roof (terrace) with phenomenal view over Leiden.
