Description
This new-build townhouse is located in Utrecht within Block J of a residential development. The property spans three living levels with a total living area of 165 square meters, situated on a plot measuring 109 square meters. The internal volume of the home is 437 cubic meters.
The layout comprises six rooms in total, with five of these serving as bedrooms. This configuration provides considerable space for various household needs, whether for sleeping, studying, or working from home. The ground floor accommodates the main living areas with a direct connection to the outdoor space. The first and second floors house the bedrooms and bathroom facilities. Having the bedrooms distributed across multiple levels works well for families with growing children who benefit from having their own private spaces.
The property features one bathroom equipped with a shower and double vanity, along with two separate toilets located elsewhere in the home. Buyers have the option to add a second bathroom on the top floor, which could be beneficial for households where multiple occupants need to prepare simultaneously during morning routines.
The outdoor space includes a south-facing garden, which receives optimal sunlight throughout the day. A storage shed is positioned in the backyard for garden equipment and other items. The property is adjacent to the Wadituin, a landscaped green space that provides immediate access to nature and walking paths.
Block J is situated on a car-free street designed with plant boxes and seating areas in front of the residences. This urban planning approach transforms the street from a mere thoroughfare into an additional usable space for residents, creating a pleasant environment for socializing or relaxing outdoors close to home.
The property comes with an included modern kitchen and complete bathroom as standard features. As a new-build project through Homestudios, buyers have the opportunity to make choices regarding the finishing and layout of the interior. This customization option allows the future owner to tailor certain aspects of the space to their specific preferences and lifestyle requirements.
One notable feature is the inclusion of an owned energy system. This means the property has its own energy generation capability, contributing to the exceptional A++++ energy rating. Having the energy system in ownership rather than through a lease arrangement provides long-term financial benefits and independence from rising energy costs.
Parking is provided through a dedicated parking space located in a nearby parking garage. This arrangement keeps the immediate residential environment free from parked cars while still ensuring convenient vehicle storage for residents.
The property is covered by the SWK Guarantee Certificate, which provides buyers with protection regarding the quality of construction and compliance with building regulations. This is standard for new-build properties in the Netherlands and offers peace of mind regarding the structural integrity and finish of the home.
The asking price is set at 955,000 euros, which translates to approximately 5,788 euros per square meter of living space. The price is quoted as vrij op naam, meaning the transfer tax and certain other standard buyer costs are included in this amount.
Construction is scheduled for completion in 2026, making this a forward purchase for those planning their housing needs in advance. The new-build status ensures compliance with current building codes and energy efficiency standards that apply to modern residential construction.
The location within a residential neighborhood in Utrecht positions this property in one of the major cities in the Netherlands, offering access to urban amenities, employment opportunities, educational institutions, and transportation networks that come with metropolitan living. The proximity to the Wadituin adds a green element to the immediate surroundings, while the car-free nature of the street contributes to a quiet and safe environment.
Mechanical ventilation is installed throughout the property, ensuring good air quality in all rooms. This system is typical for modern, well-insulated homes and contributes to the overall energy efficiency and comfort of the living environment.
The terraced house construction type means the property shares walls with neighboring homes, which is common in Dutch urban residential areas and contributes to energy efficiency through reduced external wall surface area. Despite being a terraced property, the listing describes it as a herenhuis, indicating a certain architectural style and presence that distinguishes it from standard row houses.
