If these points resonate with your current housing wishes, then this apartment located at Oudenoord 345 A is precisely what you have been looking for. This apartment exudes a specific atmosphere and a sense of gezelligheid, a Dutch term that implies a warm, cozy, and friendly ambiance.

Let us delve deeper into the layout to see if Oudenoord 345 A is the new place for you. Upon arrival at the building on the ground floor, you will find an open portico that leads to a beautifully masonry staircase. This staircase takes you up to the first floor of the complex. On the first floor, you reach the main entrance. From this point, you navigate two sets of stairs, leading you to your own private front door on the third floor. It is important to note that the apartment is situated on the third and top floor of the building, ensuring you have no upstairs neighbors, which provides a sense of peace and quiet.
Stepping inside the apartment, the atmosphere immediately envelops you. The impressive ridge height, the characteristic beams, and the excellent light intake through the large window sections are the first things that catch the eye. These architectural features give the space a loft like feel that is highly sought after. The layout is centered around a central landing, from which all rooms are connected and accessible. This central hall ensures a practical and efficient flow throughout the home.
The first space accessible from the landing is the modern toilet. Following this, you find the cozy bedroom. This room features a large roof window that not only provides natural light during the day but also offers a unique romantic feature at night. From your bed, you can gaze up at the stars, creating a serene sleeping environment. The bedroom is well proportioned and offers enough room for a double bed and storage furniture.
Adjacent to the sleeping area is the modern and spacious bathroom. This sanitary space has been finished with high quality materials and includes a walk in shower, a sleek washbasin cabinet, and a handy towel radiator. There is also a designated connection point for the washing machine and dryer, ensuring that laundry chores are kept neatly out of sight. Just like the bedroom, the bathroom is fitted with a large roof window, which is ideal for ventilation, allowing fresh air to circulate and keeping the space humid free after showers.
The heart of the home is the very spacious living room. This area is highlighted by a large dormer window at the front, which significantly enhances the sense of space and light. The dimensions of the living room are generous enough to create distinct zones. You can easily place a comfortable lounge seating area to relax, a large dining table for entertaining guests, and a dedicated home work spot for remote working days. The open nature of the room combined with the height of the ceiling makes it a versatile space that adapts to your lifestyle needs.
The living room flows seamlessly into the semi open kitchen. This culinary space is fitted with a contemporary L shaped kitchen block that includes various built in appliances, making cooking a pleasure. The kitchen is designed to be both functional and social, with enough room for a small breakfast corner or a high table for quick meals. One of the highlights of the kitchen is the set of French doors that open up to the outdoor area. This leads to the cherry on the cake of the property, which is the private roof terrace. Measuring 9 square meters, this terrace offers a view over the city. It is large enough to accommodate a lounge set or a dining set with a parasol. Whether you want to drink your morning coffee in the sun or enjoy a glass of wine in the late evening, you can enjoy the outdoor life here to the fullest.
Throughout the apartment, the finish is consistent and modern. The floors are covered with high quality laminate, giving a warm and uniform look. The walls and ceilings have been smoothly plastered, contributing to the clean and fresh aesthetic of the home. All in all, this is an atmospheric apartment situated in a super location, and it is completely ready to be moved into. This represents an excellent opportunity for a starter on the Utrecht housing market who is looking to find his or her own unique spot in the Dom city.
