Schepenbuurt Cartesiusweg en omgeving, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Perronlaan sits in a lively part of Utrecht West. The listing does not state a year of construction. As a result, some details about the building's age are missing. At €988,000, the price is 27% above the neighbourhood average of €776,686, which reflects the generous 164 m² floor area, 45% larger than the typical home in the area. For context, apartments in Utrecht vary widely in size and price.
The neighbourhood Schepenbuurt, Cartesiusweg e.o. is densely built and very urban, with over 3,100 addresses per km². One resident describes it as chaotic, noting that cars drive fast and some people cause unjustified nuisance. The same resident says the neighbourhood used to be cosy but no longer feels safe. Based on one review, this is a mixed picture. Most homes are owner-occupied (87%) and built after 2010 (62%), so the area is relatively modern.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away, and PLUS is just under a ten-minute walk. Several primary schools are within walking distance: Van Asch van Wijckschool is a couple of streets away, and Agora Hub030 is just around the corner. The municipality Utrecht offers a wide range of amenities, with a park or public garden just a couple of minutes' walk from the door.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Brecheisen Makelaars Utrecht B.V. and also appears on Funda. The agent has not published the year of construction.

My experience in the neighbourhood used to be very good. It was fun and cosy. Now there are some people living there who make it a lot less cosy and cause unjustified nuisance. You are wrongly accused and the police are called immediately. Personally, I don't think it's a safe neighbourhood, cars also drive very fast and there are many children who are careless with scooters or fatbikes.

About Perronlaan 4, Utrecht
The asking price is 27% above the neighbourhood average of €776,686, but the apartment is also 45% larger than the typical home in the area (164 m² vs 113 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €6,024, which is below the neighbourhood average of €7,039 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting more space for your money compared to other homes in the buurt.
The energy label is A+++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the neighbourhood, 80% of homes have label A or better, so this apartment is among the most efficient.
The nearest train station is about 0.9 km away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to Utrecht Centraal or other destinations.
The neighbourhood has a mix of households: about 250 households with children and 480 single-person households. There are several primary schools within walking distance, such as Van Asch van Wijckschool (561 m) and Basisschool Jules Verne (768 m). However, one resident review mentions that cars drive fast and some people cause nuisance, so it may not suit everyone.
The agent has not provided the year of construction in the listing. This detail is missing from the advertisement, so it is not possible to say how old the building is.
The floor area is 164 m², which is spacious, but without further details from the agent, the exact layout and number of rooms are unknown.
