Nieuwegracht-Oost, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Hieronymusplantsoen sits in one of Utrecht's most charming streets, with the Dom Tower just a short stroll away. At 82 m² it's compact but efficient, and with an A energy label it's unusually efficient for a building from 1450. The asking price of €525,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €1,120,375, partly because the floor area is 37% smaller than the local norm. For context, apartments in Utrecht vary widely in price and size.
