The Home Some houses simply have it all – space, character, and atmosphere. This is one of those homes. The charm and the authentic details are just stunning. You can’t help but fall in love the moment you see it. You walk along the green strip in the middle of Croeselaan towards the house, looking out over the tall trees. You enter through the beautiful vestibule with etched glass – perfect for storing a stroller. Step inside and you immediately feel it: this house breathes class and grandeur. The high ceilings, ornate plasterwork, fireplaces, and stained-glass windows are all equally beautiful. The living room is spacious and bright, with ceilings almost three meters high. At the front, large windows with stained-glass panels bring in the light, while the sliding doors at the rear connect the space to the city garden. The dining area flows into the open kitchen and the garden beyond. The dining table is the true heart of the home. Can you picture it already? The sliding doors open, a long dinner table with friends gathered around, a glass of wine in hand while the kids play outside. The kitchen is open and cleverly designed – perfect for those who love to cook and chat at the same time. You could even expand it with a beautiful island if you wish. And those tiles! They give the space the charm of a Parisian bistro. In this home, every room has been thoughtfully finished, every corner has a detail to enjoy. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms: two very spacious ones and a smaller one, currently used as a dressing and laundry room. The bathroom is luxurious, with a walk-in shower, bathtub, and double washbasin. And then the second floor – perhaps the biggest surprise of all. A completely self-contained “apartment” with two rooms, its own kitchen, and a bathroom. Perfect as a teenager’s paradise, guest suite, or au pair quarters. Here, visiting family can stay comfortably, teenagers can have their own space, or an au pair can enjoy full privacy. The garden is surprisingly generous for such a central location. Start the day here with a coffee in the morning sun and end it with a drink or barbecue in the evening. It truly feels like an extension of your living room. The Neighborhood Croeselaan is located in the popular Dichterswijk – one of Utrecht’s liveliest and most sought-after neighborhoods. It’s often one of the most popular searches on Funda. You live right across from Bar Brava, a cozy Spanish restaurant with a large terrace. Craving really good pizza? De Pizzabakkers is just down the street (our favorite is the truffle one!). You’re also within walking distance of the Veilinghavenkade, Oosterkade, and Westerkade, with their wide selection of restaurants and sunny terraces. And for an espresso or cappuccino with an amazing Italian sandwich, Nostro is a must. The city center is close by too: hop on your bike or cross the Moreelse Bridge and you’re there in minutes. Both Vaartsche Rijn and Utrecht Central stations are within walking distance – perfect for commuting. The Merwedekanaal area is developing quickly, making the neighborhood even trendier and greener. Thanks to the recent road closures, Croeselaan is now quiet and low-traffic, yet you can still drive straight onto the motorway in minutes.
