Rijnhuizen, Nieuwegein
NeighbourhoodThis brand-new apartment on the Anna van Rijnkade sits right on the water in Nieuwegein's Rijnhuizen district. With 184 m² of living space and an A+++ energy label, it is exceptionally spacious and efficient. At €1,175,000, the price is well above the neighbourhood average of €472,475, it is the most expensive of the 20 homes currently for sale in the area, but the size and quality are also far above the norm. For context, the average apartment in Nieuwegein sells for around €5,777 per m², so this one is priced at a premium that reflects its unique position. Apartments in Nieuwegein are scarce at this level.
Rijnhuizen is a young, well-planned neighbourhood built mostly after 2010. Two-thirds of the homes date from that period, so the streets feel fresh and contemporary. The area has a moderate urban density, not too busy, but with plenty of amenities within reach. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes from the data: a mix of singles and couples, with a relatively young population (most residents are between 25 and 45).

For your morning bread, Nettorama is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away.

A park or public garden is on your doorstep, perfect for a quick stroll. The neighbourhood has a low crime rate, with 128 incidents recorded, which is modest for an area of this size.
