Characterful upper apartment with green views in Utrecht

This attractive upper apartment is situated on the Zaagmolenkade in the Tuinwijk-Oost neighborhood of Utrecht. The property offers a comfortable living space of 99 square meters, featuring four bedrooms spread across two residential floors. Built in 1903, the residence retains authentic details such as ornamental ceilings and high ceilings that contribute to its characteristic appearance.

The location on the Zaagmolenkade provides a quiet living environment with a broad green strip in the middle of the street. Despite the peaceful setting, the apartment is conveniently close to all necessary amenities. The historic center of Utrecht is within walking distance, as are Utrecht Centraal Station and Overvecht Station. The neighborhood is known for being family-friendly and continues to develop positively, with the nearby Willem van Noortstraat being transformed into a bicycle street.

The entrance is located on the ground floor, where the hallway contains the meter cupboard and staircase leading to the first residential floor. The first floor features a through-living room with an open kitchen. The living room has a beautiful wooden floor and an ornamental ceiling in excellent original condition. A wood-burning stove adds warmth and atmosphere to the space. Through the French doors in the living room, you reach the terrace at the rear of the property. The terrace is also accessible from the kitchen. The modern open kitchen is equipped with built-in appliances and offers ample storage space. The hallway on this floor provides access to a separate toilet with a small sink and a side room currently used as storage or utility room. This room is spacious enough to serve as a home office or fourth bedroom if desired.

The second floor has a spacious hallway with natural daylight, providing access to three bedrooms and the large bathroom. The bathroom is well-appointed with a walk-in shower, a second toilet, a double vanity, and a towel radiator. A large built-in closet is present, complete with connections for a washing machine and dryer. Behind the bathroom, accessible through one of the bedrooms, there is an additional practical storage space.

The apartment is equipped with air conditioning on both floors, installed in 2022, allowing for both heating and cooling. The central heating and hot water are provided by a combination boiler from 2024. The exterior of the entire building was painted in 2024, ensuring a well-maintained appearance.

The energy label is D, with insulation present on the roof, walls, floors, and double glazing throughout the windows. There is potential to create a roof terrace, though this would require obtaining the necessary permits.

The property is part of a homeowners association together with the ground-floor apartment. The monthly contribution to the association is 50 euros. The association is registered with the Chamber of Commerce and has a reserve fund. Building insurance is arranged through the association. No annual meeting or maintenance plan is currently in place.

Parking in the area is available through paid public parking and parking permits. The building-bound outdoor space measures 4 square meters, consisting of the terrace at the rear of the property.

The purchase will be conducted using the NVM purchase agreement, which includes various standard clauses regarding measurement instructions, energy labels, utility companies, financing reservation, and notary costs. An asbestos clause and age clause will be added to the purchase agreement, which is common for properties from this construction period.

The asking price is 599,000 euros, which translates to approximately 6,051 euros per square meter of living space. The delivery date is to be agreed upon between buyer and seller. The seller reserves the right to accept or reject any offer at their discretion.

This well-maintained upper apartment in a favorable location offers a combination of authentic charm and modern conveniences. The four bedrooms, the spacious bathroom, and the presence of air conditioning make this a practical family home. The proximity to the center of Utrecht, public transport, and daily amenities adds to the appeal of this property in the increasingly popular Tuinwijk-Oost neighborhood.
