Admiraal van Gentstraat 45-BS3572 XG UtrechtZeeheldenbuurt, Hengeveldstraat en omgeving

Behind this characterful, listed façade lies a wonderfully light and surprisingly spacious flat, where authentic details and a stunning view of the Biltse Grift come together. A stylish place to come home to, with greenery and tranquillity at the rear and the bustling city life of Utrecht close by. This beautiful flat of approximately 125 m² is situated on the much-loved Admiraal van Gentstraat in the Zeeheldenbuurt. The 1920s building forms part of a remarkable architectural ensemble in the Amsterdam School style and has been designated a municipal monument. The characteristic façade already offers a glimpse of what awaits you inside: a charming home with panelled doors, bluestone fireplaces and a beautiful en-suite bedroom with sliding doors and built-in wardrobes. What immediately catches the eye inside is the light. The large windows and numerous glazed sections provide a pleasant flood of natural light and beautifully showcase the spacious rooms and original features. The open-plan living and dining area forms the heart of the home: an inviting living space with plenty of room for a cosy sitting area and a large dining table for long, leisurely meals. With a study on the ground floor and three spacious bedrooms on the top floor, the house offers plenty of space to live, work and retreat to for a moment’s peace now and then. At the rear, the doors open onto the balcony, a delightful spot with views of the water of the Biltse Grift and the trees lining the bank. Here you can quietly enjoy your first cup of coffee, read a book or, at the end of the day, take in the greenery around you. From the fresh greenery of spring to the warm colours of autumn: the seasons give the view a different character each time. An oasis of tranquillity right in the heart of the city. What’s more, there is the possibility of creating a roof terrace – an attractive prospect for anyone wishing for even more outdoor space. A great deal of attention has also been paid to maintenance in recent years. Within the active owners’ association, comprising the ground-floor and first-floor flats, there is good mutual consultation. For instance, the façade has been cleaned, repointed and waterproofed, and the roofing on the main roof has been replaced, with roof insulation also installed. Together with the HR++ glazing and partial vacuum glazing, this contributes to the comfort of this characterful home. Admiraal van Gentstraat has an almost village-like atmosphere, with beautiful façades and a distinctive, spacious layout. Here, you’ll live in a peaceful, green setting, whilst shops, cosy restaurants and bars, and the centre of Utrecht are all within easy reach. Public transport and major roads are also easily accessible. A warm and stylish upper-floor flat for those who love light, space and history, with a view that invites you to pause and take it all in anew every day.
