This exceptional property is situated on the leafy Herengracht, lined with distinguished townhouses. What stands out most is the wide facade featuring a straight cornice, sandstone architraves between windows, and ornaments (fittings are certainly worth looking up). This beautiful architectural style is rarely seen in Leiden and gives the property a distinguished appearance.
The property consists of a very spacious front house, currently used as an office, and a rear house on Vestestraat. The latter is currently used as a residence, but an integrated garage could also be added. And for those seeking possibilities: the zoning plan still allows for the addition of multiple floors.
FRONT HOUSE
The front house was originally built as a residence but is currently used as an office. With a few minor adjustments, you can turn it back into a beautiful home. The layout is as follows:
Ground floor
Entrance with central hall featuring a staircase and access to the garden. On the left side are the living room at the front and the dining room with a conservatory at the rear. On the right side, facing the canal, is a reception room, and on the garden side, a spacious kitchen.
1st floor
Central landing with toilet. At the front are two spacious bedrooms, and at the rear are two more bedrooms. The space currently used as a kitchen could be used as a bathroom.
2nd floor
At the front is a high, open space with a pantry. At the rear are two bedrooms with a very spacious west-facing roof terrace above them.
REAR HOUSE
The rear house is currently used as a residence for room rentals and will be delivered vacant. It was once used as commercial space with a garage, which is still visible in the facade on Vestestraat. You could replace this with a garage door, allowing you to create the luxury of a private garage in the city center. Within the zoning plan, there is the possibility to expand this home by adding two more floors on top; detailed plans for this are available.
