Layout
Ground Floor
The entrance leads into the hallway, which features a modern toilet and staircase to the upper floors. From the hallway, you enter the bright living room at the front of the house. Large windows allow an abundance of natural daylight to fill the space.
At the rear, you'll find the modern open-plan kitchen with a central cooking island. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances and offers ample workspace and storage. Large glass panels and French doors create a seamless connection between the indoor living space and the garden.
First Floor
This floor features two spacious bedrooms. The bedroom at the rear provides direct access to the balcony overlooking the greenery.
The modern bathroom is equipped with a jacuzzi bathtub, walk-in shower, vanity unit, toilet, and underfloor heating.
Second Floor
The second floor offers a surprising amount of additional space. The generous landing can easily serve as a home office, playroom, or hobby area.
This floor also includes two bedrooms, a practical laundry room with connections for a washing machine and dryer, and a second bathroom fitted with a shower, washbasin, and toilet.
From the landing, there is access to the attic loft, providing valuable additional storage space for suitcases, seasonal items, and other belongings that are not needed on a daily basis.
Garden
The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the highlights of this property. By Utrecht standards, it is exceptionally spacious and beautifully landscaped with abundant greenery, multiple terraces, and excellent privacy.
The covered seating area allows you to enjoy outdoor living from early spring onwards. At the rear of the garden, you'll find a large detached storage shed, while the rear access makes bicycle storage particularly convenient.
Despite its north-facing orientation, the garden enjoys a surprising amount of sunshine during the summer months. In particular, the rear section of the garden benefits from sunlight for most of the day.
In Summary
This surprisingly spacious and move-in-ready family home offers a wonderful garden, two bathrooms, generous living areas, and an excellent location close to Utrecht’s city center.
