Key Features
Description
Located on the quiet and green Maria Rutgersweg in Leiden, this surprisingly spacious terraced house offers 130 square meters of living space where comfort and natural light come together harmoniously. The property is situated in the popular and family friendly Stevenshof neighborhood, known for its green and spacious layout with all daily amenities within easy reach.
The ground floor welcomes you with a spacious entrance hall featuring a neatly tiled separate toilet, the meter cupboard, and the staircase to the upper floors, with direct access to the living area. The generous living room immediately stands out thanks to the abundant natural light, largely due to the large sliding doors spanning the full width of the rear facade. This design creates a natural flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, making the garden feel like a true extension of the home. The open plan kitchen is generously proportioned and equipped with various built in appliances including a large oven with a six burner gas hob and a dishwasher. The kitchen also offers ample cabinet and drawer space for all your kitchen essentials.
The backyard is tiled and maintained in a low maintenance manner, featuring a spacious wooden storage shed ideal for bicycles and additional storage. There is also a convenient side passage providing access to the back. The garden offers sufficient space for a lounge set, barbecue, and enjoyable outdoor moments. The backyard faces northwest and measures 48 square meters with a depth of 8.85 meters and a width of 5.39 meters.
The first floor is reached via a fixed staircase leading to a bright and spacious landing. Here you will find two large bedrooms, which were previously three rooms, both fitted with neat laminate flooring and benefiting from plenty of natural light. The rooms are spacious enough to accommodate a double bed as well as a large wardrobe, making them excellently suitable as a master bedroom or children's rooms. Also located on this floor is the beautifully modern, fully tiled bathroom, equipped with a walk in shower, a stylish designer vanity unit, and a second toilet.
The second floor is accessed via another fixed staircase leading to a spacious and fully functional landing. On this landing you will find a sink, the connection points for a washing machine and dryer, knee walls providing extra storage space, the mechanical ventilation system, and the inverter for the six solar panels. From this landing there is access to the third spacious bedroom and the generous rooftop terrace facing southeast. This bedroom is notable for its large windows at the front and a Velux skylight at the rear, ensuring plenty of natural light enters and creating a pleasant sense of space.
The rooftop terrace facing southeast allows you to enjoy the morning and afternoon sun, providing a lovely outdoor space on the upper level of the home. This additional outdoor area measures 12 square meters and adds significant value to the property.
The property benefits from six solar panels, good insulation, and double glazing, resulting in a favorable energy label A. Heating and hot water are provided through the city heating system, which is efficient and low maintenance. The home was built in 1989 and has a total volume of 460 cubic meters.
