Wittevrouwen, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis 1880s terraced house on a leafy street in Wittevrouwen has a raw, unpolished feel, label G means you'll be spending on heating, but the 125 m² floor area is generous for the area. At €850,000, the price is 41% above the neighbourhood average of €601,125, which puts it on the high side, even considering the extra space. For context, terraced houses in Utrecht vary widely, but this one asks a premium.
Wittevrouwen is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a mix of students, young professionals and families, 36% of households are single-person, and 22% have children. The one review available is scathing: "Too expensive, dilapidated white neighbourhood" and "a fascist neighbourhood that claims to be left-wing. Poorly maintained streets. Everywhere there is vomit, glass, and rubbish." It's a strong opinion, but it's the only one. The neighbourhood Wittevrouwen has a very high address density (5360 per km²) and 95% of homes were built before 1945, so period charm is everywhere, but so are the downsides of an old inner-city area.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Openbare Jenaplanschool Wittevrouwen, is a five-minute walk, and there are several others within easy reach. Secondary schools are a ten-minute walk or so. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is even closer, eating out is easy. The train station is a couple of kilometres away, so you'd cycle or take a bus. The municipality Utrecht has plenty of amenities, but this part of town is very much city living.
At the time of writing the home is listed via several channels, including Moen Garantiemakelaars.

A fascist neighbourhood that claims to be left-wing. Poorly maintained streets. Everywhere there is vomit, glass, and rubbish. Dirty pavements, graffiti everywhere, every street suffers from a huge nuisance of students. Students overpopulate the area. No diversity, too expensive shops. Only rich white people. Social inequality is clearly visible here. 1000 metres away in Overvecht people have nothing, here in abundance. Full of snobs. Social housing is only 6 percent, deliberately sold off, all homes are being split: unliveable, too much noise, and expanded with extra floors. People earn an average of 6-10,000 per month and look like tramps. There is no cohesion, people are focused on themselves, all islands. The atmosphere is gone. It was once a beautiful neighbourhood, but yuppies, damn students and damn expats have turned it into a white enclave of coke-sniffing egotrippers.

About Goedestraat 128, Utrecht
The asking price is 41% above the neighbourhood average of €601,125, and the median in Wittevrouwen is €625,000. The house is larger than average (125 m² vs 90 m²), but the energy label G means high running costs. Comparable homes in the area sold for an average of €614,545, so the price is on the high side.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating bills. In the neighbourhood, 35% of homes have label A, 5% label B, 35% label C, and 26% label D or lower, so this home is among the least efficient.
Wittevrouwen is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It has a mix of students, young professionals and families. The only resident review is very negative, mentioning poor street maintenance, litter, noise from students, and a lack of diversity. However, it's just one opinion. The area has many pre-war homes and is close to the city centre.
The nearest primary school is Openbare Jenaplanschool Wittevrouwen, about 425 metres away. Other primaries within walking distance include Basisschool De Wissel (575 m) and Nieuwe Regentesseschool (623 m). For secondary education, School aan de Singel (vbo/mavo) is 568 m away, and the havo/vwo branch is 611 m.
Albert Heijn is 515 metres away, Jumbo is 528 metres, and another Albert Heijn is 664 metres. There's also an Ekoplaza organic supermarket at 847 metres. So daily groceries are within a short walk.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away. That's about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
In the most recent data, there were 316 total crimes recorded in the neighbourhood. That's a moderate number for an urban area, but it's worth noting that the resident review mentioned litter and nuisance.
