Description
Plantsoen 75, Leiden
FOR SALE: imposing monumental villa situated in one of the most beautiful locations in Leiden!
Most residents of Leiden are familiar with this imposing monumental house on the Plantsoen because it is the only house on the Plantsoen with a fully-fledged garden next to the house. When the first building plots on the Plantsoen were auctioned in 1881, the conditions stated that the house had to be delivered within two years; unless the purchaser bought two contiguous plots, in which case an exemption applied to the second plot. No. 75 is now the only residential house where that second plot has always remained undeveloped.
The Plantsoen is perhaps the most attractive city park in Leiden. The park was laid out between 1835 and 1842 and is beautifully situated beside the Zoeterwoudsesingel, where it is splendid to relax on the lawns along the waterfront in summer. The park is also an important part of Leiden's new and very popular 'Singelpark'.
Right around the corner from this property is the lively and historic centre of Leiden with its attractive shops, markets, terraces, restaurants, university and museums. You are also quickly on your way to Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht or The Hague via the arterial roads.
This beautiful, distinctive townhouse (municipal monument) boasts a number of highly attractive features, including:
- a beautiful and sunny side garden of over 150 m2 with unobstructed views of the park and the water
- a strip of private land at the rear (4th Binnenvestgracht) with entrance at the rear
- a spacious living area of over 323 m2, divided over 4 floors
- parking via parking permit zone A, costs € 48,- per quarter. It is also possible (depending on the permit) to park on site
- the house has a full basement with normal light access. This is (after renovation) suitable for many purposes such as a home office.
Accommodation:
The steps with raised covered porch lead to the double entrance door. On entering, the vestibule is spacious and bright and, like the hallway, has an original marble floor. The hallway gives access to several rooms such as the toilet, the living room and the kitchen.
Because the ground floor is higher than the street, the living room offers a stunning view of the Plantsoen and the canal. The living room is lovely and bright thanks to the high ceilings and large windows at the front and rear. You will immediately notice that the original decorative stucco ceilings have recently been restored. Furthermore, this room features a wood-burning fireplace and parquet flooring.
The kitchen with conservatory is located on the other side of the hallway. The estate agent can inform you about the possibilities of connecting this to the living room, if desired. This room too is light and spacious and offers beautiful views as well as direct access to the garden.
First floor: spacious and bright landing with separate toilet. Magnificent master bedroom with ornamental ceiling and majestic views. Two spacious bedrooms, one with access to the balcony on the Plantsoen side. Neat, spacious and bright bathroom with balcony.
Second floor: here you will find a 4th bedroom, but mainly a large area of multifunctional space to create for example 2 or 3 more spacious bedrooms and a bathroom. This attic floor is already equipped with three Velux skylights and more daylight is easy to realise.
Basement: this is a fully-fledged floor that is lower than the street level of the Plantsoen but equal to the street level at the rear. It is down to the eventual buyer to decide what to do with this space of 60 m2 in total.
The garden is beautifully landscaped and the orientation is North (rear)/South (front). On the Plantsoen side, a complete new ornamental fence was recently installed.
