Description

This charming and surprisingly spacious upper apartment is spread across two floors and is located in the beloved Tuinwijk neighbourhood of Utrecht. Built in 1926, the property offers 91 square metres of living space and has been well maintained over the years. The roof covering was replaced in 2024, which is a significant advantage for future owners.

Upon entering the property, you arrive in a hall with a staircase that provides access to both the first and second floors. From the landing on the first floor, you enter the bright living area which features a balcony. The living room is characterised by large windows at the front, which ensure a pleasant amount of natural light throughout the day. At the rear, patio doors open onto the sunny south-facing balcony of approximately 2.5 square metres. The open layout of the living room accommodates both a generous seating area and a dining area, making it ideal for receiving guests. A practical work or study corner is also available at the front of this floor. The living room is finished with oak herringbone parquet flooring, adding warmth and character to the space.

The kitchen is situated at the rear of the property and is equipped with all necessary built-in appliances, including a refrigerator, freezer, oven, dishwasher, a four-burner hob and an extractor fan. The kitchen also provides access to the balcony.

A separate toilet is located on this floor for convenience.

Via the staircase you reach the second floor, where the landing provides access to three bedrooms, a bathroom, the rooftop terrace and a separate toilet. At the front of this floor are two bedrooms. One of these rooms is spacious and particularly suitable as a guest room or children's bedroom. The second room is ideal as a bright and comfortable home office or study. At the rear of this floor are the generous master bedroom and the bathroom. The bathroom is neatly finished and features a shower, a vanity unit with sink and a washing machine connection. As a special highlight, the bathroom provides access to a spacious rooftop terrace of approximately 18 square metres, situated on the south side. Here you can enjoy the sun at any time of the day.

The property is equipped with mostly double glazing and is heated by a Remeha combination boiler from 2008, which is owned by the buyer. Hot water is also provided via this boiler. The energy label is rated D, which is reasonable for a property of this age.

The monthly VvE contribution is 108.60 euros and covers a professionally managed owners association that meets annually, maintains a reserve fund and has a maintenance plan in place. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, has an active building insurance policy, and all administrative matters are in order.

Living in Tuinwijk means residing in one of the most beloved neighbourhoods in Utrecht. It is a friendly and quiet residential area with Griftpark within walking distance, as well as various restaurants, supermarkets and shops. The city centre and Central Station are reachable within 10 minutes by bicycle or public transport. The property is also conveniently located near major road links, providing additional comfort and accessibility.

Parking in the area is subject to paid parking and parking permits.

The property is offered at an asking price of 550,000 euros excluding transfer tax, which corresponds to approximately 6,044 euros per square metre of living space. The buyer is entitled to choose their own notary, preferably within the Utrecht region. The property is sold with an old-age clause, an 'as is, where is' clause and a non-occupancy clause, among others, as is customary in the Netherlands.
