Key Features
Description
This exceptional apartment is situated in the prestigious WonderWoods complex, one of Utrecht's most innovative residential developments. The building draws inspiration from the concept of vertical forests, creating a striking architectural landmark that redefines urban living in this historic Dutch city.
The apartment itself spans approximately 115 square meters and is positioned on the 15th floor, offering residents breathtaking panoramic views over Utrecht's city center. The property is presented in move-in ready condition with high-quality finishes throughout, having been completed as part of this contemporary newbuild project.
Upon entering the apartment, residents arrive in a spacious hallway that provides access to all primary living spaces. The technical room, which includes connections for both washing machine and dryer, is conveniently located in this entry area. A separate toilet with a small handbasin is also accessible from the hallway.
The heart of the apartment consists of a generous living area complemented by a luxurious open-plan kitchen. Large windows dominate this space, flooding the interior with natural daylight and framing the spectacular urban panorama. The modern kitchen features premium built-in appliances and a practical cooking island that serves equally well for daily meal preparation and social gatherings.
One of the two spacious balconons is accessible directly from the living room, extending the living space outdoors where residents can enjoy fresh air while taking in the cityscape views.
The residential wing contains two well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering comfortable dimensions for double bed placement and bedroom furniture. Both bedrooms provide direct access to the second balcony, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and ensuring both rooms benefit from excellent natural light and ventilation.
The bathroom has been finished to a high standard and includes a walk-in shower, a soaking tub, a vanity unit with integrated basin, and a heated towel rail. These appointments reflect the overall quality standard maintained throughout the property.
WonderWoods represents a forward-thinking approach to sustainable urban development. The complex incorporates numerous eco-friendly features and shared amenities designed to enhance residents' quality of life. These include a communal interior garden that provides a green retreat within the building, an elegant residents' lounge suitable for social occasions or remote work, extensive bicycle storage facilities, and provisions for sustainable transportation such as car-sharing services and electric vehicle charging points.
The location is exceptionally convenient for city living. Shops, restaurants, and cafes are all within comfortable walking distance. The vibrant historic city center is easily reachable within minutes, while nature lovers can quickly access the scenic Utrechtse Heuvelrug region for outdoor recreation and relaxation.
The building offers practical facilities including lift access to all floors, mechanical ventilation systems, and secure bicycle storage with three dedicated parking spots included in the purchase. A private storage unit of approximately 6 square meters provides additional convenience for seasonal items and belongings.
Energy performance is excellent, with the property carrying an A+ energy label. The apartment benefits from full insulation and is heated via district heating systems. Hot water is provided through a central heating installation.
Monthly service charges amount to approximately 674 euros, covering the comprehensive maintenance and management of the common areas and building facilities. The owners' association is properly registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, maintains a reserve fund, and has a structured maintenance plan in place.
Parking in the immediate vicinity is available through paid public parking facilities, as is typical for central urban locations in Dutch cities.
This property represents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a modern, sustainable, and luxuriously appointed apartment in one of Utrecht's most distinctive buildings, combining the convenience of city center living with high-quality construction and environmental consciousness.
