A compact apartment with an A energy label in Utrecht's Wittevrouwen
This apartment on Klaverstraat in Wittevrouwen is a rare find: a 19th-century home with a modern A energy label. At 56 m² it was compact, but the last known price of €395,000 was 34% below the neighbourhood average of €601,125, partly because it was 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. This home has not been online since 2 September 2026.
Wittevrouwen: a neighbourhood with strong opinions
Wittevrouwen gets mixed reviews from its residents. Based on one review, the overall score is 2.13 out of 5.

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.

Frequently asked questions
About Klaverstraat 23BS, Utrecht
Was €395,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €395,000 was 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 worked out at about €7,054, which was slightly above the neighbourhood average of €6,865 per m². So while the total price was low, you're paying a premium for the compact size and the A energy label.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
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 meant low energy costs for heating and hot water, so you won't face the high bills typical of older homes.
How is the neighbourhood Wittevrouwen?
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.
What amenities are nearby?
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.
How does the size compare to other apartments in the area?
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 was a compact option, ideal for a single person or couple who prioritise location over square metres.
What is the property type and year of construction?
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.
