Haarlemmerstraat is Leiden’s main shopping street: from cozy coffee spots and boutiques to excellent restaurants and charming terraces — you only need to step outside your door. Central Station, supermarkets, the cinema, and various hotspots are all within walking distance.

Through the secure communal entrance on the ground floor, you’ll find the mailboxes and your private storage room — perfect for bikes and extra storage. The stairs lead to the second floor, where the open gallery gives access to the apartment.

Upon entering, the hallway features the utility meter cupboard and access to all rooms. On either side are two bedrooms measuring approximately 12 m² and 5,3 m². The smaller room includes a washing machine connection, making it ideal as a home office, study, guest room, or walk-in closet.

The bathroom is equipped with a comfortable bathtub with shower, a modern vanity, and a towel radiator. The toilet is separate and accessible from the hallway.

The spacious living room is wonderfully bright thanks to the large windows and offers lively views over Haarlemmerstraat. The open kitchen is neat and fitted with various built-in appliances, including an oven, gas hob, and extractor hood, along with plenty of storage space. Here, you can cook alongside friends at the table or enjoy a quiet breakfast in the sunshine.

The French doors lead to the generous balcony, where you can sit and watch the lively street below. With the afternoon sun streaming in, this is a perfect spot to relax — right in the city, yet surprisingly peaceful and private.
