About Nieuwegracht 56C1, Utrecht
The rent is 28% above the neighbourhood average of €2,186, and the apartment is 76 m², which is 67% smaller than the average rental in the area (233 m²). So you're paying a premium for a smaller home in a prime canal-side location. Whether that's fair depends on how much you value the historic setting and compact city living.
Rental properties in this neighbourhood are let quickly, the average time from listing to being rented is 17 days. That suggests a fast-moving market, so if you're interested, you'll need to move promptly.
The apartment has energy label C. That's a decent rating for a building from 1900, it means the home is reasonably efficient, though you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as a modern A-label home, but it's far from the worst.
The CBS data records 163 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita comparison it's hard to judge. The area is very urban and central, so like any city centre, you can expect some street-level activity. Many residents appreciate the lively atmosphere.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15-20 minute walk or a short cycle. That's convenient for commuting to other cities.
Yes, a park or public garden is just 0.1 km away, literally on your doorstep. That's a real bonus in a dense city centre.
