Wittevrouwen, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Klaverstraat in Wittevrouwen is a rare find: a 19th-century home with a modern A energy label. At 56 m² it's compact, but the price of €395,000 is 34% below the neighbourhood average of €601,125, partly because it's smaller than the typical 90 m² in the area. That makes it a keen entry point into this sought-after part of Utrecht, where apartments in Utrecht are in high demand.
Wittevrouwen gets mixed reviews from its residents. Based on one review, the overall score is 2.13 out of 5. One resident describes it as "Too expensive, dilapidated white neighbourhood," adding: "A fascist neighbourhood that claims to be left-wing. Poorly maintained streets. Everywhere there is vomit, glass, and rubbish." They also note that "social housing is only 6 percent, deliberately sold off" and that "people earn an average of 6-10,000 per month." It's a stark picture, but it's just one voice. The neighbourhood Wittevrouwen is home to 6,730 people, mostly one-person households, and the area has a very high density of addresses.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. There's also an Ekoplaza within a ten-minute walk. For school runs, Openbare Jenaplanschool Wittevrouwen is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool De Wissel is also close by. The municipality Utrecht offers plenty of restaurants and a park within walking distance, making it easy to enjoy city life.

A fascist neighbourhood that claims to be left-wing. Poorly maintained streets. Everywhere there is vomit, glass, and rubbish. Dirty pavements, graffiti everywhere, every street suffers from a huge nuisance of students. Students overpopulate the area. No diversity, too expensive shops. Only rich white people. Social inequality is clearly visible here. 1000 metres away in Overvecht people have nothing, here in abundance. Full of snobs. Social housing is only 6 percent, deliberately sold off, all homes are being split: unliveable, too much noise, and expanded with extra floors. People earn an average of 6-10,000 per month and look like tramps. There is no cohesion, people are focused on themselves, all islands. The atmosphere is gone. It was once a beautiful neighbourhood, but yuppies, damn students and damn expats have turned it into a white enclave of coke-sniffing egotrippers.

About Klaverstraat 23BS, Utrecht
The asking price of €395,000 is 34% below the average asking price in Wittevrouwen (€601,125). However, this apartment is also smaller than average: 56 m² versus 90 m². The price per square metre works out at about €7,054, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €6,865 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size and the A energy label.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This is unusual for a home built in 1895, most properties in Wittevrouwen (95.3%) were built before 1945, and only 34.9% have an A label. An A label means low energy costs for heating and hot water, so you won't face the high bills typical of older homes.
Wittevrouwen is a dense, urban neighbourhood with 6,730 residents. It has a very high address density (5,360 per km²). The one review available gives a score of 2.13 out of 5, with complaints about student nuisance, litter, and lack of diversity. However, it's close to the city centre and has good amenities. The area has many pre-war buildings and a mix of owner-occupied homes (61%) and rentals.
You'll find several supermarkets within walking distance: Albert Heijn at 497 m, Jumbo at 514 m, and another Albert Heijn at 698 m. For primary education, Openbare Jenaplanschool Wittevrouwen is 395 m away, and Basisschool De Wissel is 555 m. A GP is 0.6 km away, and a park is just 0.3 km from the home. The nearest train station is 2.1 km away.
At 56 m², this apartment is 38% smaller than the average home in Wittevrouwen (90 m²). The neighbourhood has a mix of single-family homes (56%) and apartments, but most properties are pre-war and relatively spacious. This is a compact option, ideal for a single person or couple who prioritise location over square metres.
This is an apartment built in 1895, typical of the pre-war housing stock in Wittevrouwen (95.3% of homes date from before 1945). The building has been modernised to achieve an A energy label, which is a significant upgrade for a home of this age.
