A spacious apartment on the water
This apartment on Utrechthaven sits in De Wiers, a calm corner of Nieuwegein where the streets feel open and the water is never far away. With 249 m² of floor space, it is a generous home that stands out from the typical rental stock in the area. The rent of €2,250 per month is on the high side, but the size explains much of that. For context, apartments in Nieuwegein average around 178 m², so this one is considerably larger.
De Wiers: a quiet, green pocket
De Wiers is a small neighbourhood with roughly 240 residents, and the feel is distinctly peaceful. Most households are single-person, making up 59% of the homes, while families with children account for 30%. The streets are lined with low-rise housing, and the nearby park is just a short stroll away. It is the kind of place where you notice the quiet more than the bustle. The neighbourhood has a modest, settled character that suits those who value space and calm.
Daily life around Utrechthaven
For everyday errands, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Jumbo a couple of streets further on. School runs are straightforward too: De Schouw primary school is a five-minute walk, and Cals College for secondary education is close by. A restaurant is within easy reach for an evening out, and the train station is about nine kilometres away. The municipality of Nieuwegein keeps the area well connected, with most amenities a short trip from home.

Frequently asked questions
About Utrechthaven 9B, Nieuwegein
Is €2,250 a fair rent for this apartment?

How does the floor area compare with other rentals here?
This apartment has 249 m² of floor space, which is 40% larger than the neighbourhood average of 178 m². That makes it a notably spacious option in De Wiers, where most rental homes are considerably more compact. The extra square metres are the main reason the rent sits above the local average.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
