Bunnik as a buyer's market: what you need to know about terraced houses here
Bunnik is wedged between Utrecht and the Utrechtse Heuvelrug, and you can feel that in the housing market. The municipality is strongly owner-occupied dominant: rental properties are scarce, and anyone who wants to live here almost always buys. Terraced houses are the most common type in the newer residential areas, but supply is limited at any given time. Anyone actively looking to view all homes for sale in Bunnik quickly notices that properties here rarely stay on the market for long.
Who is this type suitable for? Terraced houses in Bunnik mainly attract families and dual-income earners seeking the tranquillity of a small municipality with a quick connection to Utrecht. The homes are predominantly from the 1970s to 1990s, with a limited share of new builds. That means: energy labels that vary, but also plenty of potential for sustainability improvements.
What makes a terraced house in Bunnik different from one in the city
A terraced house has two neighbours, and that has more consequences than you might think. A few points to consider specifically for this type of home in a municipality like Bunnik:
- Shared party walls: always have the cavity wall and insulation checked during a structural survey. Older terraced houses in Bunnik sometimes have no or limited cavity wall insulation.
- Boundary and fencing: ask the seller about the cadastral boundaries. In practice, the actual situation in gardens of terraced houses often deviates from what the cadastre indicates.
- Rear extension: many terraced houses in Bunnik have already been extended or have a conservatory. Check whether planning permission was applied for and granted; otherwise, this can cause problems when selling or renovating.
- Parking situation: Bunnik has relatively low parking pressure compared to Utrecht, but in the more compact residential streets it can still be tight. Check the situation at multiple times of day.
- Act quickly: terraced houses in Bunnik at an asking price in the upper mid-range often receive multiple offers within a few days. Ensure your financing is arranged in advance with a mortgage advisor.
- Enable push notifications: via the free App Store or Google Play version of the Buurtje.nl app, you will receive a notification as soon as new listings appear that match your search criteria. The app is free and works with filters on type, neighbourhood and price range.
- Year built and energy label: homes from the 1980s sometimes still have single glazing on the upper floors. Factor in sustainability costs in your bid, especially if you want to benefit from favourable mortgage conditions for energy-efficient homes.
Price level: where does a terraced house in Bunnik sit in the spectrum
Terraced houses in Bunnik fall into the upper mid-range. This has a few concrete causes: the location just outside Utrecht, the green living environment and the limited new-build production in the municipality. Current prices and the current supply can be found in the overview at the top of this page.
Factors influencing the price of a specific property:
- Energy label (A or B gives a measurable advantage in mortgage lending)
- Presence and quality of an extension or conservatory
- Location relative to main roads (the A12 is audible in some parts of the municipality)
- Condition of the roof and windows (a fixed point of attention for homes from the 1980s)
- Garden orientation: a sunny back garden noticeably increases the asking price
Banks are stricter with homes under 40 m², but that hardly plays a role with terraced houses in Bunnik. Most homes here are well above that.

Auto-translated to English by AIToo little is being built and when something becomes available, it's not for those who have been registered for years. Clean and safe???? Pavements uneven, tiles loose or missing... weeds growing rampant. Shrubs pruned too late or not at all or forgotten, creating unsafe spots e.g. when crossing or wanting to drive onto the road. 1 supermarket, too expensive, yes the previous owner arranged that a second one cannot/may not come to Bunnik while Odijk has 2. etc etc I could list and write more things.
Auto-translated to English by AII used to play outside here often and it is very beautifully green
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a cosy and safe neighbourhood but the people are narrow-minded
Auto-translated to English by AINext to my house you are literally run off the pavement by cars trying to pass each other. Adding a few bollards would be a solution. Even when I walk with my walker and later with my mobility scooter, I will certainly have to be careful when leaving my exit.
Auto-translated to English by AIA lot is being built and high, now looking at apartments, soon they'll know by the end of the year what I'm cooking. There is only one supermarket, an expensive AH, so you have to go to the next village to do your shopping cheaply. A lot of rubbish lies on the street, especially napkins from the ice cream shop, wheelie bins have been on the pavement for years while they have space behind the house.
Auto-translated to English by AILive here wonderfully with lots of nature around me and a beautiful stream flows past the village. Nice shops and yet I live right in the centre... only a pity about that neighbour
