Stylish Ground Floor Apartment with Private Garden and Parking in Museum Quarter

Located in the prestigious Museum Quarter of Utrecht, Brigittenstraat 3A presents a unique opportunity to reside in a magnificent ground floor apartment that seamlessly blends historical charm with modern comfort. Situated in a monumental building, this property underwent a complete restoration in 2006 and was subsequently divided into five exclusive apartments. The current owner has meticulously maintained the residence, evident in the recent 2024 renovations including new monumentally approved double glazing and exterior painting. This spacious apartment spans approximately 133 square meters and offers a rare combination of city living with the luxury of private outdoor space and a covered parking spot. The location is highly sought after, positioned on a quiet street yet within walking distance of the vibrant Nieuwegracht, Oudegracht, and the Ledig Erf area, known for its charming terraces and diverse restaurants. The entrance to the building is grand and stately, leading to a communal hallway that provides access to the apartments, the cellar, and the beautiful city garden. One of the distinct advantages of this apartment is its accessibility on the ground floor, eliminating the need for climbing stairs. The layout is thoughtfully designed to maximize both space and light. Upon entering the apartment, you are welcomed into a hallway that features a guest toilet with a small sink and a fixed cupboard housing the connections for a washing machine and dryer. This leads into the generous living room, which boasts high ceilings and smooth plastered walls. The floor is covered with beautiful Afzelia parquet, adding a touch of warmth and elegance to the space. Facing the street, three large windows adorned with original shutters allow for an abundance of natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to the living room is the living kitchen, a delightful and atmospheric part of the home. This room is connected to the living area via elegant en suite doors. The kitchen itself is arranged in a U shape and features a sleek black granite countertop. It is fully equipped with high quality Siemens appliances, including an induction cooktop, a stainless steel hood, a dishwasher, a combination microwave, and a refrigerator freezer combination. The current configuration presents a two room apartment with a large living kitchen. However, the dimensions of the living room offer flexible possibilities. The owner suggests that the kitchen could be moved into the living room, thereby converting the existing kitchen area into a second large bedroom or home office. Drawings illustrating these potential layout changes are available, providing a great option for buyers seeking different functionality. Moving through the hallway, you reach the main bedroom. This room is spacious and situated next to the garden, ensuring a peaceful and quiet environment. It features an en suite bathroom equipped with a bathtub, a fixed sink, and a second toilet. Storage needs are well catered for with a private storage room located in the cellar of the building. This space is easily accessible via the central hall and offers ample room for bicycles, gardening tools, and other storage items. A highlight of this property is the outdoor space. The very large backyard is divided into a communal area featuring a water feature and five private gardens. The entire garden has been professionally and tastefully landscaped. Your private section provides a serene retreat where you can enjoy the sun, read a book, or socialize with neighbors in complete privacy. At the rear of the garden, there is access to the private parking garage. This secure parking area is reachable via Nieuwe Kamp and includes a spacious parking spot for this apartment. Having a private parking space in the city center is an exceptional luxury. From the garage, you can walk through the garden to reach the apartment's back door. The property benefits from an energy label A, which is valid until 2034, ensuring good energy efficiency. Heating and hot water are provided by city heating, a convenient and sustainable solution. Service costs are set at 451.23 euros per month for the apartment and an additional 25 euros per month for the parking space. The Homeowners Association (VvE) is professionally managed, with registration at the Chamber of Commerce, annual meetings, periodic contributions, a reserve fund, a maintenance plan, and building insurance. This exclusive apartment on one of the most beautiful locations in the historic city center offers a unique lifestyle combining the convenience of urban living with the tranquility of a private garden and the practicality of private parking. It represents a perfect match for those seeking space, comfort, and atmosphere in a monumental setting. The transfer of ownership will be handled by the project notary Dentons, and the purchase agreement will include an age clause and a non occupancy clause.
