Description
An exceptionally tasteful, move-in-ready, and fully insulated (Energy Label C) terraced house from the 1920s (1924). This charming home features a spacious front garden and a sunny, sheltered, and deep (17-meter) south-facing back garden complete with external sun blinds, an outdoor veranda, a covered bicycle shed, an attached brick storage shed, and wide rear access. It is situated on a quiet, child-friendly, and characterful street in the Oud Oegstgeest neighborhood. The property boasts four bedrooms, two dormer windows, two toilets, two Velux skylights, underfloor heating, a complete "hotel-chic" bathroom, and a semi-open kitchen equipped with every conceivable built-in appliance, including an induction cooktop and a Quooker tap.
Thanks to the recent, tasteful renovation, the home offers great comfort and a contemporary look and feel.
The location is ideal. The shops and restaurants of the Lange Voort shopping center—offering a wide range of retail options—as well as the lively Tuesday market and the charming ‘De Kempenaerstraat,’ are all within walking distance. Various primary schools (such as the Gevers-Deutz Terweeschool and Hofdijckschool) and secondary schools (including the international Rijnlands Lyceum), sports and recreational facilities (including hockey, soccer, tennis, golf, and athletics), the wood Bos van Wijckerslooth and Endegeest woods, the De Leidse Hout city park, and public transport links are all in the immediate vicinity. Additionally, the Bio Science Park, Leiden University, Akzo Nobel, ESTEC, and Avery are within cycling distance. The property is conveniently located for access to major roads (A4/A44) leading to Amsterdam/Schiphol and The Hague, the Kagerplassen lakes, the Klinkenbergerplas recreation area, and the beaches and dunes of Katwijk, Noordwijk, and Wassenaar; Leiden Central Station, the charming historic city center of Leiden, and two major hospitals (LUMC/Alrijne) are also nearby.
Oegstgeest consistently ranks in the top 10 best municipalities to live in; in 2022, it was named the best residential municipality in South Holland (source: Elsevier Weekblad 2022) and holds the title of the second-greenest municipality in the Netherlands.
