Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Vredenburg sits right in the thick of things, but being on a high floor means you hardly notice the bustle below. At 85 m² with an A++ energy label, it's a modern, efficient home in a 2012 building. The asking price of €685,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €858,850, and there are plenty of flats in Utrecht to compare it with.
This is a busy, central area, one resident describes it as "Busy but because the apartment is high up you hardly notice it!" They also note that "in terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent." The neighbourhood has a very high density of addresses (5225 per km²) and is home to mostly young adults between 25 and 45. Most homes are apartments built after 2010, and the area scores a 6.75 out of 10 from one review. For more context, see the Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs neighbourhood.

In terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent. I never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of all the homeless people and creepy individuals. There should be much more green space in the centre for my liking. It could be so much better. We do have a very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex.
