Luxury Maisonnette with Roof Terrace and Private Parking in Prestigious Greenville Complex
Key Features
Upsides
- Excellent energy performance with A label, 13 solar panels, WTW installation, full insulation, gas-free heating, and district heating, resulting in very low running costs and a reduced environmental footprint.
- The property was built in 2021 and is covered by an SWK Garantiecertificaat, ensuring high construction quality and providing buyer protection beyond what older properties offer.
- The maisonnette layout over two floors provides generous space of 172 m² with three bedrooms, a large open-plan kitchen, and a living room with high ceilings, offering a house-like feel within a modern apartment complex.
- Private parking space in a secured garage and a private storage unit are included, addressing two of the most common pain points for urban apartment living in Utrecht.
- The ground rent (erfpacht) has been bought off in perpetuity, removing a recurring financial obligation and simplifying the ownership structure for future resale.
Downsides
- The monthly VvE service contribution of €322.40 is relatively high for an apartment of this size, and buyers should carefully review the VvE's financial reports and maintenance plans to ensure this fee remains appropriate over time.
- With only three bedrooms, the property may not accommodate larger families or households requiring more sleeping spaces, limiting the long-term suitability for some buyers despite the generous total floor area.
- The outdoor space is limited to a single balcony of 7 m² and shared communal gardens, with no private garden or terrace, which may be a drawback for those who prefer ground-level outdoor access.
- Although the listing describes the area as quiet, Leidsche Rijn Centrum is a dense urban district with restaurants, shops, and promenades nearby, which may result in higher ambient noise levels than a purely residential neighbourhood.
- The property is categorised as a maisonnette in an apartment complex, which means the owner's ability to make structural modifications or renovations may be subject to VvE approval and municipal regulations.
Description
This is an exceptionally spacious and well-appointed maisonnette apartment situated at San Marinostraat 59 in the heart of Leidsche Rijn Centrum, Utrecht. Built in 2021 within the architecturally designed Greenville complex, this two-storey residence offers approximately 172 square metres of living space and presents a rare combination of modern luxury, energy efficiency and convenient urban living.
The property is entered via a private entrance hall on the ground floor, which also houses the staircase leading to the upper level. The ground floor features a modern separate toilet finished with stylish greige tiles and a handbasin. The centrepiece of this level is the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area, which measures approximately 27 square metres. This room benefits from exceptionally high ceilings of around 3.8 metres and expansive windows that flood the space with natural light throughout the day. The kitchen itself is fitted with white high-gloss cabinetry providing generous storage capacity. At its heart is a cooking and preparation island with a breakfast bar, making it ideal for entertaining guests and family gatherings. The kitchen is fully equipped with a Bora induction hob featuring integrated extraction, a refrigerator, freezer, combination oven, dishwasher, and a Quooker instant hot water tap.
Ascending the staircase brings you to the first floor, where the generously proportioned living room is located. This light-filled room is characterised by its large windows and two French balconies with doors that open outwards, creating a pleasant connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. The living room is further enhanced by a decorative fireplace and an anthracite-coloured tiled floor that adds warmth and character to the space. Behind double black pivot doors is a practical pantry and kitchenette, a thoughtful addition that proves convenient during social evenings when you prefer not to return downstairs.
The landing on the first floor provides space for a built-in wardrobe and leads to three spacious bedrooms, a luxurious bathroom, a second separate toilet, and an internal storage room. The bathroom is fully tiled and equipped with a double vanity unit with illuminated mirrors, a spacious walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, and a design that matches the overall high standard of the property. The sunny balcony of approximately 7 square metres is accessible from both the landing and one of the bedrooms. Partially covered, this outdoor space is perfect for enjoying the morning sun or an evening drink in a sheltered setting.
In the basement of the building, the property includes a private fixed parking space within a secured car park and an external storage unit of approximately 6 square metres, providing practical storage for bicycles, luggage or seasonal items.
Residents of the Greenville complex also have access to a shared communal garden, which has been thoughtfully planted with a variety of greenery and flowers to create a natural and colourful setting. This green oasis offers a peaceful retreat within the urban environment. Immediately in front of the complex is the Budapest planted area, which functions as a pleasant green buffer and adds to the overall quality of the surroundings.
From an energy and sustainability perspective, this property is exceptionally well equipped. It holds an A energy label and has been constructed to be fully insulated, including roof, wall, and floor insulation. The property is entirely gas-free and heated via district heating. Underfloor heating is installed throughout the entire property. A mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery (WTW installation) ensures a healthy and efficient indoor climate. Thirteen solar panels on the roof generate electricity for the household, contributing to low energy costs and a reduced carbon footprint. The construction carries an SWK Garantiecertificaat, providing additional assurance regarding the quality of the building and materials used.
The property is situated on a quiet road within the vibrant Leidsche Rijn Centrum district, an area known for its modern urban character with Mediterranean-inspired boulevards and promenades. The neighbourhood offers a diverse range of shops, dining options, and cafes, including a Jumbo Foodmarkt. The Leidsche Rijn Centrum railway station is within walking distance, providing direct connections to Utrecht and beyond. The historic centre of Utrecht with its full range of urban amenities, shops, and restaurants is easily reachable by bicycle, with a dedicated cycling boulevard and bridge connecting the area to the city centre in approximately fifteen minutes. For drivers, the A2, A12, A27, and A28 motorways are quickly accessible. The nearby Maxima Park and the Haarrijnse Plas, a lake with clean water and a sandy beach area, provide additional recreational opportunities within close proximity.
The property is offered at an asking price of €1,095,750, excluding transfer tax (kosten koper). The monthly VvE contribution is €322.40, which covers the service costs and the parking space. The ground rent (erfpacht) has been bought off in perpetuity, eliminating this ongoing cost for the owner. Furniture and interior fittings may be taken over by separate negotiation, allowing a new owner to move into a fully furnished home if desired.
This maisonnette represents an outstanding opportunity for those seeking a spacious, high-quality, and energy-efficient home in a dynamic and well-connected urban location, combining the comfort of a private residence with the conveniences of modern city living.
