Description
In the monumental Van Wijk complex - a former wool blanket factory in the historic center of Leiden - we have this beautiful 3-room apartment for sale. The house is located in the part of the complex, located on and overlooking the Hogewoerd, which was designated as a national monument in 1977. The original building dates from the mid-18th century (approx. 1750), but was converted into apartments in 1988 during a large-scale renovation. The current owner has recently completely renovated / modernized the house and it is ready to move into (with the exception of a few finishing touches). The sleek finish and the high ceilings in combination with the authentic windows make the apartment feel like a loft. You have to see this with your own eyes! So quickly make an appointment for a viewing.
The apartment is already completely ready for the future; there is no longer a gas connection and heating takes place by means of electric infrared ceiling panels. For the hot water there is an electric boiler of no less than 80 liters and the kitchen has a connection for electric (induction) cooking.
On the ground floor, the house has an individual storage room and there is a large communal roof terrace where you can enjoy the sun.
You don't have to go far for daily shopping. Literally around the corner, on the Levendaal side, on the ground floor of the complex there is a Dekamarkt, with a Hoogvliet and Albert Heijn also within walking distance. But also the pleasant shopping streets in the center of Leiden and various other facilities such as fitness, museums, restaurants and other entertainment venues can also be found within walking/cycling distance, as well as the city park Het Plantsoen, Polderpark Cronesteyn and the Vlietland recreation area. The accessibility is fine; there is a bus stop a stone's throw away, the house is conveniently located for the railway stations Leiden Central and Lammenschans (a few minutes by bike) and there are also good connecting roads to the A4 / N11. In short, a very convenient, central location.
