The Jan van Houtkade is situated in a strategic location in Leiden, beautifully positioned on the water of the Zoeterwoudse Singel. A quay with history, allure, and-with the right perspective-still possessing that sense of grandeur. Not in the midst of the hustle and bustle, yet with everything within easy reach. The city center is just a few minutes’ walk away. A stroll along the canals, a coffee at your favorite spot, or a quick errand in the village-like Doezastraat around the corner. City life unfolds close by here, without you being right in the middle of it. And this calls for houses with a unique appearance and qualities. This is one of them. On the Jan van Houtkade, a street that is becoming increasingly beautiful and green, stands this stately townhouse from 1910, which is, rightly, a protected cityscape. With a characteristic facade, a sunny front garden, and more than pleasant dimensions, this is no run-of-the-mill terraced house but a home with a distinct identity of its own. Inside, approximately 142 m² of living space awaits, spread over multiple levels, with a layout that is both flexible and surprising. What makes it even more interesting: the street is undergoing extensive development. The Municipality of Leiden is focusing on greening, which will make living here even more pleasant in the future. More greenery, more tranquility , more quality. A street that is not only beautiful but is becoming even more beautiful!
