Description
TranslateFor sale: a bright apartment (90 m²) with 3 (bed)rooms at a prime City Center location!
(NOTE: this property can also be purchased with an indoor parking space)
On the edge of Utrecht's City Center, a stone's throw from the popular 'Ledig Erf', the charming Oosterkade and Westerkade (cozy waterfront quays) and the Vaartsche Rijn Station, lies this great apartment. It's spread over two floors and features three extra rooms in addition to the living space(s). Here you'll live in peace and comfort, yet everything the city has to offer is within walking and cycling distance.
There's a balcony terrace (upstairs) and a covered outdoor patio-like area (downstairs), both directly accessible from the apartment and connected to the gardens. Behind these outside spaces is the large communal garden, which all residents can use – a real treat in the summer (the whole plot of the complex measures over 2000 m²). The complex is relatively new (1995) and exceptionally well-maintained by a very active and involved homeowners' association (VvE). And what about the car? This can be parked in one of the few private parking spaces (owned, can be purchased separately) beneath the complex.
Inside the home, the spacious living/dining room is a focal point thanks to its wrap-around windows and ample space for a generous seating area and dining table. The practical kitchen (2023) is bespoke but can even be upgraded further to one's taste. The study at the back of the apartment, with access to the balcony, can easily be incorporated (again) into the open-plan kitchen/living room.
On the ground floor, the indoor storage room has been incorporated into the house with permission from the homeowners' association, creating two downstairs rooms. The current owners renovated the bathroom and toilet in 2020.
The house is exceptionally spacious, and the walls are straight (no sloping roofs, etc.). The apartment's shape offers various layout options, making it suitable for both independent residents (young or old) and/or couples (with or without a child) as well as for students living together or young professionals sharing a house. This home is ideal for those who want city-living with (or without) a car and ample living space!
The parking space can be sold jointly as well as separately.
The house is located in Hooch Boulandt, which neighborhood is officially part of the City Center and it borders the Singel (water). It has an urban, yet relatively quiet atmosphere by most city-center standards. Many of its residents are relatively young (25-45 years old) and there's a healthy balance between owner-occupied and rental properties in the neighborhood (60-40%).
You'll be living within walking distance of the historic City Center, the canals, Rotsoord, and the popular restaurants and cafes along Oosterkade and Westerkade. The location is exceptionally well-connected with public transport, Utrecht Central Station, and Vaartsche Rijn Station within walking distance as well as by car; the A12/A27 motorways are easily accessible from here.
Various local shops (cheese, meat, fish, and vegetables) are just around the corner, as are two major supermarkets (Jumbo and Albert Heijn). The Oude Gracht, Hoog Catharijne and the rest of Utrecht's City Center are easily accessible. Dining out or visiting the theater is ideal in the City Center and a pleasant drink is particularly found at Ledig Erf or at Klein Berlijn on Rotsoord.
Note: This property is provisionally registered as an Energy label A. A definitive registration is underway - the expectation is that is is label A, as all the properties in this building (the ones that have an energy label) have an A label-rating.
In short: if you're looking for a spacious apartment with an urban feel in a relatively quiet residential area, Vaartsestraat 35 is the perfect location!
