Schildersbuurt, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on Vossegatselaan brings you the charm of the Schildersbuurt with its 1920s architecture and a manageable 60 m² of living space. The energy label D means you'll want to budget for heating, but the price is notably keen: at €325,000 it sits 59% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €784,250, partly because the floor area is 48% smaller than the typical home here. For context, that's a sharp entry point into the apartments in Utrecht market.
The Schildersbuurt scores an 8.96 out of 10 from three residents. One calls it "great" and "good". Another says: "I've lived here my whole life, and there are many good things about this neighbourhood, like the peace and quiet and the number of cats and dogs... Also nice people!" but notes "a lot of rubbish on the street and rubbish bags next to the neighbourhood container." A third resident praises the "pleasant atmosphere", the neighbourhood concierge, and the nearby Wilhelminapark. It's a dense, urban area (over 2,900 addresses per km²) with mostly pre-war housing and a mix of singles and families. Read more about the neighbourhood Schildersbuurt.
For your morning bread run, PLUS is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. Two primary schools are within a couple of streets away: Utrechtse Schoolvereniging and Prof. Kohnstammschool. For secondary education, St. Bonifatiuscollege is a five-minute walk. The municipality Utrecht offers plenty more, but the essentials are already close by.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Ludenhoff makelaars & taxateurs o.g. Utrecht and also appears on Funda.

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here my whole life, and there are many good things about this neighbourhood, like the peace and quiet and the number of cats and dogs (which I really like). Also nice people!=) But there's always a lot of rubbish on the street and rubbish bags next to the neighbourhood container. Not very nice.... it also smells here sometimes, but that's probably due to the sewerage. In terms of facilities and surroundings, it's a fine neighbourhood to live in.
Auto-translated to English by AII am very satisfied with the neighbourhood where I live. The neighbourhood concierge is a great addition and ensures a pleasant atmosphere. The cosy shops in the area make shopping a pleasure, especially with Wilhelminapark nearby. And the Kohnstammschool is a hidden gem that makes the neighbourhood special for children's education.

About Vossegatselaan 36A, Utrecht
The asking price of €325,000 is 59% below the neighbourhood average of €784,250, but the apartment is also 48% smaller than the typical home in Schildersbuurt. Given the 60 m² floor area and energy label D, the price is on the low side compared to the local market, making it a relatively affordable entry into this sought-after area.
The apartment has energy label D. This means it is not particularly energy-efficient; you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area's older housing stock.
Residents rate it 8.96 out of 10. They appreciate the peace and quiet, the many pets, and the pleasant atmosphere with a neighbourhood concierge. However, some mention street litter and occasional smells from the sewerage. It's a very urban area with a mix of ages and household types.
