Frequently asked questions
About Lange Viestraat 4B, Utrecht
Is €3,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The rent is 38% above the neighbourhood average of €2,176, and the floor area of 75 m² is 41% smaller than the average of 128 m². So you're paying a premium for a smaller space, but the central location and the A++ energy label are likely part of that. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value living right in the centre.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A++, which is the most efficient label available. This means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to homes with lower labels. The label is an official registration, so it reflects the property's energy performance as certified.
How noisy is the neighbourhood?
Residents describe the area as busy and sometimes noisy, which is typical for a city centre. One review mentions "almost always noise pollution," while another says it's "sometimes noisy but that's not the residents' fault." If you're sensitive to sound, this is something to consider, but the lively atmosphere is part of the appeal for many.
What are the nearest supermarkets?
An AH to go and a full Albert Heijn are both about 164 metres away, so just around the corner. A Jumbo is about 258 metres away, and Boon's Markt is at 263 metres. For a wider choice, there are 71 supermarkets within 5 km, so you'll never be short of options.
How far is the train station?
The train station is 1.6 km away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to get to other parts of Utrecht or further afield without needing a car. The station is well-connected, though specific destinations are not listed here.
What is the neighbourhood like in terms of demographics?
The neighbourhood has about 1,725 residents, with a high proportion of single-person households (71%). Most residents are between 25 and 45 years old (56%), and there are few families with children (5%). This is a typical city-centre profile, with a young, mostly single population.
