Lunetten-Noord, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Oldambt 23 sits in Lunetten-Noord, a leafy part of Utrecht's Zuid district. At 110 m², it's a good deal roomier than the neighbourhood average, and with an energy label B it's reasonably efficient. The asking price of €498,000 is on the high side compared to other homes in the area, but you're paying for the extra square metres. For context, apartments in Utrecht vary widely in size and price.
Lunetten-Noord is a green, well-connected neighbourhood, but it has its downsides. Based on two reviews, residents appreciate the greenery and proximity to Beatrix Park, but some note issues with antisocial behaviour. One resident says: "Overall, most people are quite nice and I'm glad I have somewhere to live, but there are a lot of antisocial and dirty people living here." Another calls it a "nice neighbourhood" with "15min biking from Central Station" and "full of green places." The area has a mix of households, with many singles and a fair number of families. For more on the area, see the Lunetten-Noord neighbourhood.
For your morning bread and groceries, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Hoogvliet is just around the corner. There are several primary schools within a ten-minute walk, including KBS De Spits and Basisschool De Klim, plus a secondary school, De Passie Utrecht, a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Utrecht, which offers a wide range of amenities and services.

Overall, most people are quite nice and I'm glad I have somewhere to live, but there are a lot of antisocial and dirty people living here. People who pee in the lift, do balloons, put rubbish on the street, deal drugs, loiter in the hallway, etc. It would be nice if more enforcement was done on hygiene and behaviour. A homeless person slept under the fire escape for a few months, which didn't feel very nice. The police did come regularly, but little was done about it. Also, people with dogs never clean up their dog poop behind my house. Otherwise, the surroundings are beautiful. You can walk straight into Beatrix Park where many nice people walk their dogs. Facilities are fine, but for shops like Kruidvat, HEMA, Action, etc., you have to travel a bit further. As a starter, I think it's fine to live here now, but because of the neighbourhood, I do want to move away at some point. A shame because I love Lunetten and all the greenery it has to offer.

Lunetten-Noord has a mix of households, with about 370 families with children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area is green with Beatrix Park nearby. However, some residents mention issues with antisocial behaviour, so it's worth visiting at different times.
