Spacious corner family home with five bedrooms, conservatory and garage on a 207 m² freehold plot in De Hoge Mors

Situated in a quiet street in the popular De Hoge Mors district of Leiden, this surprisingly spacious corner home offers five bedrooms, a living area of 120 m² and a generous freehold plot of 207 m². Thanks to its corner position, the property benefits from excellent privacy, an abundance of natural light and a spacious rear garden.

With a private driveway, a conservatory extension, a detached garage with an electric door and several energy-saving features, this is an ideal family home in a highly convenient location.

Over the years, the property has been carefully maintained and upgraded with uPVC window frames, floor and roof insulation and ten solar panels. In 2007, a conservatory was added at the rear, creating a wonderful additional living space overlooking the garden. At the rear of the plot is a spacious detached garage, accessible both from the garden and directly from the street. The electric garage door makes it practical not only for parking a car or bicycles, but also as a workshop, hobby room or additional storage space.

The location is excellent. Several schools, sports clubs and the recently renovated Diamantplein shopping centre are nearby for everyday amenities. The historic city centre of Leiden and Leiden Centraal Station can be reached within approximately ten minutes by bicycle, while a city bus stop is located within walking distance. Major roads towards The Hague, Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport are also easily accessible.

Sellers’ story
“After more than thirty years of living here with great pleasure, the time has come for us to move to a single-level home. This is the house where our children grew up and a home that was always able to adapt to our changing needs. Over the years, additional rooms were created in the attic and a conservatory was added to the garden side, allowing us to enjoy outdoor living even more.

We have always appreciated the comfort of the house, the spacious garage and the convenient location. Within ten minutes you can cycle to the centre of Leiden, while the A44 and A4 motorways are quickly accessible.

What we will probably miss most, however, is the wonderful neighbourhood. It is a place where people know one another, children can grow up safely and neighbours regularly meet during community activities around the car-free Beryl Square.”

Layout
Ground floor
The entrance leads into the hallway with wardrobe cupboard and meter cupboard. From here, you enter the spacious and bright living room. Windows along the side façade as well as at the front and rear provide excellent natural light throughout the day.
The hallway also provides access to the staircase area and a modern toilet fitted with a wall-mounted toilet and washbasin.
At the rear of the house is the semi-open kitchen, installed in 2014. The kitchen is equipped with an induction hob with extractor hood, dishwasher, refrigerator with freezer compartment, combination oven and boiler.
Adjacent to the kitchen is the conservatory, added in 2007. This attractive space forms a natural extension of the living room and provides a wonderful place to enjoy the garden for much of the year.

First floor
The landing provides access to three well-proportioned bedrooms, the bathroom and a separate toilet.
The bathroom is equipped with a shower, washbasin unit and designer radiator.

Second floor
The second floor offers two further full-sized bedrooms. Thanks to the dormer windows at both the front and rear, these rooms enjoy excellent natural light and additional living space.
The landing includes a built-in cupboard housing the central heating system installed in 2014.

Outdoor space
The rear garden is surprisingly spacious and offers a high degree of privacy. A particular highlight is the detached garage located at the rear of the plot. Equipped with an electric door and accessible from both the garden and the street, it provides an ideal space for parking a car, storing bicycles or creating additional storage or hobby space.

Alongside the house is a private driveway, beautifully enhanced by a mature grapevine overhead.
