Renovated Corner Apartment in Charming Wittevrouwen Neighborhood

The Klaverstraat in Utrecht has a rich history that dates back to the late nineteenth century. During this period, driven by the opportunities presented by emerging industries in the city, an increasing number of people chose to settle in and around Utrecht. Wittevrouwen, which had for centuries served as the vegetable garden of the city, gradually transformed around the turn of the century into a bustling suburban district. Construction activity was significant, and the Klaverstraat was completed around 1895.

The buildings along this street were constructed in a seemingly repetitive style, though not every residence is identical in size. The property at number 54, now offered on the market, occupies a corner position where a shop was previously located on the ground floor. In 2018, this home was completely modernized to meet contemporary standards, resulting in a cleverly laid out and spatially appealing residence in one of the most desirable locations within Wittevrouwen.

What makes this location particularly appealing is the presence of friendly neighbors who all appreciate what the neighborhood has to offer. Further along the street, you will find bakery Verhoeff, and on Saturdays, a cheese vendor sets up shop on the corner. The restaurants C'est Ça and Goesting come highly recommended. Cafetaria Chi provides quick meals, which can be followed by the famous ice cream from Roberto's. For wine enthusiasts, Het Gouden Glas offers good advice and a fine selection. If you venture a bit further, the dining options become so extensive that one would need to write an entire restaurant guide.

The corner position of this property is especially noteworthy because it provides the home with numerous additional windows on the side, allowing for abundant natural light throughout the interior spaces.

The entire apartment features double glazing. The ceilings were renewed during the renovation, and both the electrical system and central heating installation were completely replaced. The owners chose doors and hardware that suit the character of the building, while walls and ceilings were finished with smooth plasterwork. The floors are laid with wooden planks, adding warmth and character to the spaces.

The kitchen is notably modern and includes generous built in cabinets. Positioned near the tall windows at the front, this becomes a bright and pleasant space where one can comfortably prepare meals and enjoy a glass of wine together.

Upon entering through the front door, there is a modest hallway that serves as the general entrance. This hallway provides access to the apartment situated on the first floor, as well as to another apartment located on the second and top floor.

Inside the apartment, you enter directly into the living room. On the right side is the door to the bathroom, which is adjacent to a side bedroom that features beautiful tall windows. This bedroom benefits from the corner position of the building, receiving excellent natural light through the side facing windows.

At the front of the apartment, the living room is situated alongside the semi open kitchen, which is equipped with various built in appliances. Extending from the kitchen is a tall cabinet wall that reaches up to the high ceiling. To the right of this cabinet wall is an additional room that can serve multiple purposes, such as a utility room for a washing machine and dryer.

From the living room, there is also access to another bedroom with a window facing the rear. The living room itself features an attractive fireplace mantle, adding a focal point to the space.

The property has an energy label A, indicating excellent energy efficiency. The insulation is described as fully insulated, and heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha central heating boiler installed in 2018.

Regarding the property owners association, the monthly contribution is seventeen euros. The VvE is not registered with the Chamber of Commerce, there is no annual meeting, no maintenance plan, and no reserve fund. However, building insurance is in place.

The apartment is located on a quiet road within a residential area. The asking price is four hundred ninety nine thousand euros, costs to be paid by the buyer. The price per square meter amounts to approximately eight thousand and forty eight euros. The property has a living area of sixty two square meters and a volume of two hundred five cubic meters. It contains four rooms in total, of which two are bedrooms. There is one bathroom equipped with a shower and toilet. The property occupies one residential level, being the first floor.

The cadastral designation is ABSTEDE B 7140, and the ownership situation is full ownership. The roof type is a gable roof, consistent with the architectural style of the period when the building was constructed.

This apartment represents an opportunity to live in a historically significant yet thoroughly modernized home in one of Utrecht's most sought after neighborhoods. The combination of period character elements, such as high ceilings and the fireplace, with contemporary updates including new systems and an energy efficient rating, makes this a property that bridges the gap between historical charm and modern comfort.
