A room with a difference
This is a room, but not as you know it. At 106 m², it is far larger than the typical room in Utrecht, and the rent of €418 sits well below the average for rooms in the city. The listing does not state an energy label, so the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. For context, the price is about 75% below the neighbourhood average for rentals, which makes it a keen deal. If you are looking for rooms in Utrecht, this one stands out for its size and price.

Frequently asked questions
About Van Heuven Goedhartlaan 2G-5, Utrecht
Why is the energy label not mentioned?
The agent has not published this detail, so it is not possible to say how efficient the home is. The label, when available, is an official registration that indicates the energy performance of a property, but here it is simply absent from the information provided.
Is €418 a fair price for this room?
At €418, this room is priced well below the average for rooms in the neighbourhood, which stands at €850. It is also about 75% below the average rental price in Kanaleneiland-Noord, where the average is €1,669. Given the size of the room at 106 m², the price appears to be on the low side compared to what is typically available.
How large is this room compared to others?
The room measures 106 m², which is 47% larger than the average rental property in the neighbourhood, where the average floor area is 72 m². This makes it a spacious option, especially for a room, and it is likely to feel more like a small flat than a typical student room.
What is the neighbourhood like for daily life?
Kanaleneiland-Noord is a busy, urban area with a high number of single-person households and a large share of residents aged 25 to 45. For daily errands, a SPAR express is just around the corner, and a Jumbo and an Albert Heijn are within a five-minute walk. Schools are also close by, with primary options on your doorstep and secondary schools a short walk away.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is about three kilometres from the home. That is a manageable distance if you commute by train, though you would need to factor in a short cycle or bus ride to get there. The exact travel time depends on your mode of transport.
Why are there no property details in this listing?
HelloCity has published only the street and price for this room. Other details, such as the exact layout or condition, are not provided by the agent, so the information on this page focuses on the location and the neighbourhood.
