Houses in Leiden
Family houses are scarce in central Leiden, where the historic stock has almost entirely been subdivided. Homes with gardens sit in the Merenwijk, Stevenshof, Roomburg and in the neighbouring municipalities of Oegstgeest, Leiderdorp and Voorschoten. At a city average of €22.69 per square metre, a hundred-square-metre home lands near €2,270. This type mainly draws the families of LUMC and biotech staff, who typically hold multi-year contracts and are therefore attractive to landlords.
