Description
This corner residence is situated in Blok L within the Leeuwepoort development in Utrecht. The property benefits from a corner position within the block, which provides a sense of greater freedom in its placement compared to mid-terrace homes. The house features a direct connection to the Wadituin, which serves as the green heart of this section of Leeuwepoort, offering seating areas and play elements for residents to enjoy.
The property spans two residential floors and comprises four rooms in total, of which three are bedrooms. This layout allows for flexible division of space to suit various household compositions. The configuration could accommodate a main bedroom, a children's room, and an additional room that could serve as a nursery, home office, or guest room depending on the needs of the occupants. The ground floor is designed to support compact and organized family life, with the garden functioning as a natural extension of the living space.
The living area measures approximately 96 square meters, while the plot size is listed at 128 square meters according to the description, though the cadastral data indicates 111 square meters. The internal volume of the property is 254 cubic meters. These dimensions suggest a efficiently planned home that makes good use of the available space across its two levels.
The garden is positioned on the northern side of the property. While a north-facing garden receives less direct sunlight throughout the day, it can remain cooler during warm summer months and may be appreciated for certain types of planting that thrive in partial shade. A storage building is located in the backyard, providing additional space for garden equipment, bicycles, or other belongings that need to be kept outside the main living areas.
One notable feature of this property is the inclusion of an owned energy system. This means that the future residents will have direct control over their energy consumption and production. Combined with the A++++ energy label, this indicates that the home is designed to be exceptionally energy efficient, which should result in lower ongoing energy costs and a reduced environmental impact compared to older properties.
The property is being offered as new construction with an expected completion year of 2026. It comes with an SWK Guarantee Certificate, which provides buyers with protection regarding the quality of construction and any potential defects that may arise after completion. This guarantee is an important safeguard for purchasers of new-build properties.
Through Homestudios, buyers have the opportunity to make choices that align with their current lifestyle and preferences. This customization process can include adjustments to the kitchen and bathroom, allowing the property to be tailored to specific requirements from the outset. The listing indicates that a modern kitchen and complete bathroom are included in the purchase price.
The bathroom facilities include a shower, a bathtub, a toilet, and a washbasin. Additionally, there is a separate toilet located elsewhere in the home, which is a practical feature for households where the main bathroom might be occupied.
Parking is available through an owned parking space in a parking garage. This is a significant advantage in urban areas where on-street parking can be limited or require separate permits. Having a dedicated parking spot adds convenience and certainty for residents who own a vehicle.
The Wadituin, which borders the property, is described as a communal green space that makes outdoor living accessible and natural for residents. The presence of play elements makes it particularly suitable for families with children, who can safely play outside while parents maintain visibility from the home or garden. The description paints a picture of a lifestyle where the boundary between indoor and outdoor living is fluid, with the garden door opening directly toward this green area.
Mechanical ventilation is installed in the property, which contributes to good indoor air quality without the need for residents to manually open windows for ventilation purposes. This is a standard feature in modern, well-insulated homes and works in conjunction with the high energy efficiency rating.
The property is located in a residential neighborhood within Utrecht, as indicated by the cadastral registration. The asking price is 600,288 euros, which translates to approximately 6,253 euros per square meter of living space. The property is offered vrij op naam, meaning that the buyer will not be responsible for certain transfer costs such as the property transfer tax that would normally apply to residential purchases in the Netherlands.
The delivery of the property will be arranged through consultation, giving both parties flexibility in determining the exact handover timeline once construction is complete. The listing status indicates that the property is currently available for purchase.
Leeuwepoort appears to be a planned residential development that emphasizes community living and access to green spaces. The integration of shared outdoor areas like the Wadituin suggests a neighborhood design that encourages interaction among residents while providing practical amenities for daily life. The combination of new construction quality, energy efficiency, and thoughtful urban planning positions this property as a modern home suited for buyers seeking a balance between urban convenience and residential comfort.
