Oudwijkerveldstraat 913581 JJ UtrechtOudwijk

If, as a student, you’ve enjoyed living somewhere and, years later, you’re given the chance to buy that house from your former landlord, you probably won’t need to think twice about it. That’s exactly what happened to the current residents of this special house on Oudwijkerveldstraat. In 2017, a major renovation took place, during which the entire property was overhauled: from the ground floor right up to the roof, and everything in between. It was a large-scale project, with great attention paid to the quality of the finish as well as to the atmosphere and character of the house. The former workshop and the flat above were combined to form a single spacious family home, which is in an exceptionally good state of repair. It is also lovely to see how the building’s history has been incorporated. The large doors that once provided access to the carpentry workshop have been preserved and incorporated into a cupboard on the first floor. On the street side, a completely new façade was created featuring a large, arched window, in keeping with the other façades in the street. No expense was spared on such a defining detail. It gives the façade that certain charm that makes you pause for a moment as you walk past. It’s the sort of house you could easily fall head over heels for. The property’s history dates back to 1880. It was not only a home but also a place of work: the ground floor was once a carpenter’s workshop, with a flat above it. The floors now combine to form a lovely family home with approximately 118 m² of living space. Renovated in keeping with its original style, it features high ceilings, plenty of light and lovely bedrooms. The two bathrooms make everyday life just that little bit easier, and the large south-facing roof terrace is a place where you’ll want to step outside as soon as the first rays of sunshine appear. And then there’s the neighbourhood. You’ll be living here in a quiet street on the east side of Utrecht, with Burgemeester Reigerstraat just round the corner. A quick pop to the speciality shop for dinner, a coffee, a meal out or a stroll through Wilhelminapark: it’s all part of daily life here. It’s no wonder this is such a much-loved neighbourhood. It’s also a lovely place to live for those with young children, or who are thinking about starting a family. There are plenty of playgrounds and play areas in the neighbourhood, and Wilhelminapark is close by for a lovely afternoon of outdoor play. So here you not only have the shops and cosy terraces just round the corner, but also plenty of space to get out and about with the children. A neighbourhood where you can thrive as a family for years to come. A house with a rich history, a surprising amount of space and an owner who has clearly put a lot of love into it. Now there’s room for the next chapter. Perhaps it will be yours. Can you already picture yourself living here? Then book a viewing and find out if this is your new home.
