About Abstederdijk 130, Utrecht
The asking price of €598,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €525,000 but below the average sold price of €577,706 for homes in this area. Given the 95 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €6,295, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €6,626 per m². So it's priced competitively for a period terraced house in a central Utrecht location.
Energy label C is a mid-range label, meaning the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. In this neighbourhood, 60% of homes have label C, and 20% have label A or better. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like better insulation or a more efficient heating system could bring the label up and reduce bills.
The neighbourhood has a mix of residents, but only about 240 households have children out of 985 total. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like KBS Stepping Stones (221 m) and Basisschool de Odyssee (287 m). The area is very urban, so gardens are small, but parks like the Wilhelminapark are nearby.
Utrecht Centraal station is 1.2 km away, about a ten-minute walk. From there, you can reach Amsterdam, The Hague and other cities in under 30 minutes. Several bus stops are also within a couple of streets away, providing connections across Utrecht.
The listing does not specify the number of bedrooms. With 95 m² of living space, a typical terraced house of this era often has three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.

The listing does not mention parking. In this part of Utrecht, on-street parking is common but often requires a permit. The neighbourhood is very urban, so parking can be competitive. Check with the municipality for permit availability.
