Dichterswijk, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis 85 m² apartment on Da Costakade sits in Utrecht's Dichterswijk, a neighbourhood that has seen a lot of change. Built in 1938, it has an E energy label, so heating costs are something to factor in. The asking price of €498,000 is 19% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which makes it a keen option compared to other apartments in Utrecht.
Dichterswijk has undergone a visible transformation, with new buildings going up, but one resident (TopBoy28) says: "This neighbourhood used to be a deprived area with many problems. Now a lot of new buildings have been built. But behind the walls of the houses, there are still problems. Apart from that, there are many racists living here. The neighbourhood has been nicely renovated and looks better than before." Based on one review, it's a mixed picture. The area is densely populated, with many young adults and a high proportion of single-person households. For more context, see the neighbourhood Dichterswijk.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Coop and PLUS are a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including KBS Gertrudis and Openbare Basisschool De Kleine Dichter. The neighbourhood also has a park or public garden on your doorstep, and a restaurant just around the corner. The municipality Utrecht offers a wide range of amenities.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Lauteslager Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.
