This family home is situated in the pleasant and green residential area of Bijdorp in Voorschoten. The property benefits from a quiet location in a low traffic residential courtyard, making it particularly suitable for families with children. The front of the house offers unobstructed views, and the immediate surroundings are characterised by a peaceful atmosphere.

The location is considered highly desirable for several reasons. The recreational area Vlietlanden and the river Vliet are just around the corner, providing opportunities for outdoor activities. Local amenities are within close proximity, including shops on Schoolstraat, a supermarket, and the charming Voorstraat with its various offerings. The property is also within cycling distance of Voorschoten railway station, which adds to the convenience of the location. The residential setting is car free, meaning there are no vehicles parked directly in front of the property.

The entrance to the property is via a front garden that features a sunny seating area measuring over five metres in width and 2.65 metres in depth. The front door leads into a spacious hallway that houses a modern electrical installation with eight circuits and two residual current devices. The hallway also contains a separate contemporary toilet with washbasin and a cloak area for coats and shoes.

The ground floor comprises a generous living room that measures approximately 10.60 metres in depth and 4.87 metres in width. This creates a spacious feel and allows for various furniture arrangements. The open plan L shaped kitchen with a cooking island and built in appliances connects seamlessly with both the living and dining areas, facilitating social interaction during meal preparation. A practical storage cupboard is located beneath the staircase, providing additional space for household items. The entire ground floor is equipped with underfloor heating, which contributes to a comfortable living environment.

At the rear of the property, French doors open onto the garden, which measures approximately 18 metres in depth and has a total area of 90 square metres with dimensions of 17.80 metres by 5.06 metres. The orientation of the garden ensures that there are options for both sunny and shaded seating areas throughout the day. The garden also features a detached stone storage unit and a secure rear entrance, which is practical for storing bicycles, including electric bicycles, scooters, or a motorcycle.

The first floor is accessed via a staircase from the hallway and features a landing with access to two bedrooms. The primary bedroom is located at the rear of the property and has been combined into one large room, though the layout allows for it to be reinstated as two separate bedrooms if desired. In its current configuration, this bedroom measures approximately 4.90 metres in width and 4.57 metres in length and includes a full width wardrobe wall with ample storage space.

The second bedroom is situated at the front of the property and measures 3.27 metres in length and 2.81 metres in width. This room is suitable as a bedroom, study, or nursery depending on the needs of the occupants.

The first floor also contains a separate modern bathroom that is fitted with a bathtub, a walk in shower, a washbasin, and a second toilet. This arrangement means that the property has two toilets in total, which is convenient for a family household.

The second floor is reached via a second staircase and is currently arranged as a spacious bedroom and home office spanning the full width of the property, measuring approximately 5.21 metres by 4.90 metres. The sloped ceilings provide additional storage space, and this is complemented by built in cupboards. The central heating combi boiler, which dates from 2015 and is gas fired, is neatly concealed on this floor, as is a dedicated laundry area with space for a washing machine and dryer. The layout of this floor has been carefully considered to maximise the available space.
