Spacious family home with sunny garden in green Zuilen
Key Features
Description
This family home is located at Zwanenvechtplein in the Schaakbuurt neighborhood of Utrecht, situated in the Zuilen district. The property offers a living area of approximately 111 square meters and is built on a plot of 137 square meters. The house was originally constructed in 1989 and is classified as a terraced house (tussenwoning) with a gable roof covered with tiles.
The location combines the benefits of a quiet residential area with convenient access to urban amenities. The street has no through traffic, contributing to a peaceful living environment. Directly in front of the property is a playground, which adds to the family-friendly character of the neighborhood. The playground is currently being renovated. Despite the tranquil setting, the center of Utrecht can be reached by bicycle within approximately 15 minutes. Daily groceries can be obtained at the Rokade shopping center within walking distance. The area also offers various sports facilities and recreational spots such as Fort aan de Klop. The nearby Vecht river and the walking routes around Slot Zuylen provide opportunities for outdoor activities in a green and water-rich landscape.
The ground floor features an entrance hall with a toilet, leading into the living room. The living space is designed to accommodate both a comfortable seating area and a spacious dining table. Floor heating has been installed throughout the ground floor, and the property benefits from good insulation, ensuring comfortable temperatures throughout the year. The living room connects to the backyard through a practical canopy attached to the house, which allows for outdoor seating even during less favorable weather conditions or earlier in the season.
The kitchen has been partially renovated in recent years. The worktop has been replaced, and the kitchen is equipped with built-in appliances. The refrigerator, dishwasher, and freezer were replaced in 2025, making the kitchen ready for immediate use. The kitchen layout is practical and modern.
The first floor contains multiple bedrooms and a bathroom. The bathroom was renovated in 2019 and is finished in a well-maintained condition, requiring no further work. The exact configuration of the bedrooms on this floor is not specified in detail, but the property is listed as having four bedrooms in total across all floors.
The second floor provides additional space and flexibility. This level is generously proportioned and offers the possibility to create two separate rooms, which could serve as additional bedrooms or a combination of a workspace and guest room. A second bathroom is also located on this floor. This bathroom provides a good foundation but may require updating or modernization to meet current comfort standards. The layout of this floor makes it relatively straightforward to create a fully equipped additional bathroom.
The backyard is located at the northeast side of the property and has a depth of 16.35 meters and a width of 5.73 meters, resulting in an area of 94 square meters. The garden is described as deep and well-maintained, with sunny spots throughout the day. There is sufficient space for seating areas, greenery, and potentially play space for children. A separate stone storage building is located in the garden, equipped with electricity. The garden is accessible via a rear path.
The property has several notable features that contribute to energy efficiency and comfort. Solar panels were installed in 2022 and are included in the purchase as owned property. A heat recovery ventilation (WTW) system has been installed, combined with good insulation including roof insulation, double glazing, HR-glass, and floor insulation. The energy label is rated B. The heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha gas-fired combination boiler from 2018, which is owned by the current owners.
Security has been addressed with new locks and interior locking mechanisms installed in 2024. The property is offered with full ownership (volle eigendom).
The asking price is 595,000 euros, which translates to approximately 5,360 euros per square meter of living space. The property is available and acceptance is negotiable. Parking is available on public roads in the vicinity. The property is connected to fiber optic cable and has TV cable connections.
The total volume of the building is 383 cubic meters. The built-on outdoor space measures 16 square meters, and the external storage space measures 6 square meters.

As is standard in Dutch real estate transactions, the buyer has a duty to investigate the structural condition, legal situation, and usage possibilities of the property. The purchase agreement may include common clauses such as an age clause, asbestos clause, and/or non-owner-occupancy clause depending on the circumstances. A private buyer has a statutory cooling-off period of three days after signing the purchase agreement. Typically, a deposit or bank guarantee of 10 percent of the purchase price is required.
