Description
This contemporary townhouse, designated as Blok M, offers an ideal living solution for families seeking space and comfort in Utrecht. The property spans three floors with a total living area of approximately 150 square meters, providing ample room for various household needs and activities.
The home features six rooms in total, including five generously sized bedrooms. This layout gives families the flexibility to designate rooms according to their specific requirements. One bedroom can serve as a dedicated children's room, another as a quiet home office for remote work, while a third can accommodate overnight guests. The versatility of the space ensures that family members can pursue their individual activities without disturbing one another.
The architectural design thoughtfully separates living spaces across the three floors. The ground floor serves as the communal hub where family members gather during the day. The kitchen and living area are positioned to create a cohesive social environment, with direct access to the west-facing garden. This orientation allows residents to enjoy afternoon and evening sunlight in the outdoor space, perfect for relaxing with a drink at the end of the day.
The upper floors provide private retreat spaces for each family member. Bedrooms are distributed across the first and second floors, creating natural separation between living and sleeping areas. The property includes one fully equipped bathroom with a shower, double vanity, bathtub, and toilet, with an additional separate toilet available. For larger households, an optional second bathroom can be installed on the attic floor, which proves particularly practical for families with multiple children or those who frequently host guests.
The interior specification includes a modern kitchen that comes fully equipped as part of the purchase price. The bathroom is complete and ready for immediate use, eliminating the need for renovation work upon moving in. A storage shed is situated in the rear garden, providing practical storage for bicycles, garden equipment, or seasonal items.
One notable advantage of this property is the owned energy system. Unlike many new developments where residents pay lease fees for solar panels or heat pump systems, this home includes an energy system that is fully owned by the resident. This arrangement provides direct insight into energy consumption and eliminates ongoing lease costs, contributing to predictable monthly expenses.
The property achieves the highest possible energy rating of A plus plus plus plus, indicating exceptional energy efficiency. This rating reflects the quality of insulation, the efficiency of the heating system, and the presence of renewable energy generation. Such a high energy rating typically results in significantly lower utility costs compared to less efficient properties.
Blok M enjoys a privileged location adjacent to the Wadituin, a green internal courtyard area that provides a peaceful backdrop to the residential block. This landscaping creates a pleasant view from the property and contributes to the overall residential atmosphere. The immediate surroundings consist of residential housing in a planned neighborhood.
Parking is conveniently provided through a private space in a covered parking garage. This amenity eliminates the stress of finding street parking and protects vehicles from weather conditions. The parking facility is directly associated with the residential block.
The property is being constructed under SWK Garantiecertificaat, which is a recognized Dutch construction warranty scheme. This certification provides buyers with guarantees regarding the quality of construction and protects against defects. The anticipated completion date is set for 2026, which is standard for new build properties in the Netherlands.
The plot size of approximately 114 square meters is typical for urban terraced housing in Utrecht. While not expansive, the efficient layout maximizes the usable space within the building, and the west-facing garden extends the living area outdoors during favorable weather.
This townhouse represents a solid choice for families prioritizing energy efficiency, spatial flexibility, and a low-maintenance lifestyle in a new construction project with recognized quality assurances.
