Layout
Ground floor
Through the entrance at the front of the home, you step into the hall containing the meter cupboard and the staircase to the upper floor. From the hallway, you enter the surprisingly bright living space, where living and cooking flow seamlessly into one another. The modern open kitchen is located at the front. The sleek white Poggenpohl kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances and offers ample work and storage space. Walking further, you enter the atmospheric living room. Together with the living space, the modern kitchen forms a stylish and bright living environment. Thanks to the French doors, the interior flows seamlessly into the sheltered city garden, a wonderful place to enjoy the outdoors right in the middle of the city. On the ground floor, the home features a shower room with marble wall finish, a washbasin, and a toilet.
First floor
The stairs lead to the first floor. On the first floor, there is an atmospheric bedroom at the front and a practical office or study at the rear. This space is perfectly suited as a home office, hobby room, or guest room. In both rooms, there is ample closet space behind the knee walls. The modern equipment, the contemporary finish, and the good state of maintenance combine to create a home that is ready to move into immediately. The Koddesteeg is one of those hidden gems in the historic city center of Leiden, where tranquility and history come together.
