Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Hoola van Nootenstraat is part of a brand-new complex, completed in 2025. With an energy label A+, it's as efficient as they come. At €950,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €858,850, but that reflects the new construction and central location. For context, the average price per m² in the area is €8,017, and this home is 115 m². You can compare it with other apartments in Utrecht.
This is the busiest part of Utrecht, right by the station and the Jaarbeurs. One resident describes it as "Busy but because the apartment is high up you hardly notice it!" They appreciate the amenities but note it's "not accessible by car" and that they "never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of all the homeless people and creepy individuals." The resident also wishes for more green space, though they mention a "very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex." The area is extremely urban, with over 5,200 addresses per km², and most households are singles (725 out of 1,225). It's a young crowd: two-thirds of residents are between 25 and 45. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs.
For daily groceries, you have a SPAR just around the corner, an AH to go a couple of streets away, and a full Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. Schools are also close: the Christelijk Gymnasium Utrecht is a five-minute walk, and Kindercampus Molenpark primary school is about the same distance. The central station is a ten-minute walk, and there are restaurants on your doorstep. The municipality Utrecht offers everything you'd expect from a major city.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including IMMO 030 Makelaars.

In terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent. I never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of all the homeless people and creepy individuals. There should be much more green space in the centre for my liking. It could be so much better. We do have a very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex.
