About Ridderschapstraat 25A, Utrecht
The asking price of €489,000 is close to the neighbourhood median of €482,000. However, at 50 m², this home is 32% smaller than the average sold property in the area (74 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €9,780, which is above the neighbourhood average of €7,545 per m². So while the total price is in line with the market, you're paying a premium for the smaller size and central location.
The home has an energy label A, which is very efficient, especially for a building from 1883. In the neighbourhood, only about 31% of homes have label A, and 8% have A+. This means heating costs should be relatively low compared to older, uninsulated properties.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride. Utrecht Centraal is the main station, offering connections across the country.
The neighbourhood recorded 412 total crimes in the latest data. This is a relatively high number, but it reflects the dense, central urban environment with many shops, bars and people.
