At €495,000, the asking price is below the neighbourhood average of €558,438, making it a keen option compared to other apartments in Utrecht.
The neighbourhood Hooch Boulandt is a small, quiet area between the Singel and the railway. One resident describes it as "a quiet part of a busy neighbourhood", the streets behind the Singel are peaceful, with few amenities but easy access to shops on foot. The area has a very high density (5,333 addresses per km²) and is mostly made up of apartments. It's a place where you'll find many singles and young professionals, though the resident notes that the quiet streets can feel a bit eerie at night, especially the walk from the station past dark parks and empty offices.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Agatha Snellenschool, is a five-minute walk, while Openbare Basisschool De Kleine Dichter is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Utrecht offers all the cultural and recreational amenities you'd expect from a city centre, with a restaurant and a park both on your doorstep.
At the time of writing the home is listed via De Interim Makelaar and also appears on Funda and Pararius, so it's available through several channels.

I live on the Singel, which is quite busy with traffic, but the streets behind it (between the Singel and the railway) are actually very quiet and peaceful. This is also because there are few amenities in this part. However, you can easily reach all necessary shops on foot. Due to the few cafés in these streets, there is little sense of community. The quiet streets behind the house can sometimes be scary when you have to walk through them at night. Especially the stretch from the central station to home passes dark parks and offices that are empty in the evening. Living on the Singel, apart from the traffic, is very nice because you can (run) along the Singel in the greenery straight away. Hygiene is fine. The bins are not often too full.
