Voordorp en Voorveldsepolder, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on the Lippizanerstraat sits in Voordorp, a car-free pocket of Utrecht that feels more like a friendly village than a city neighbourhood. With 126 m² of living space, it's a third larger than the average rental in the area. At €2,238 per month, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood median of €1,785, but you're paying for space and a modern, energy-efficient home. For context, this is one of the terraced houses in Utrecht currently available.
One resident describes the neighbourhood Voordorp en Voorveldsepolder as a 'Village in the City': 'When I come to Voordorp, it really feels like a village. People look at you, say hello, children play in the street, and there's a lot of greenery. It's also car-free, which makes it nice and quiet on the street!' The neighbourhood is home to a mix of ages, with many families and a good number of young adults. Over half the homes are single-family houses, and two-thirds are owner-occupied, giving the area a settled feel.
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Jumbo a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within a couple of streets away, including Basisschool de Beiaard and Basisschool De Wissel, both a short stroll from the house. The municipality Utrecht offers all the amenities you'd expect from a city, but here you're in a quiet, green enclave where children can play safely outside.

When I come to Voordorp, it really feels like a village. People look at you, say hello, children play in the street, and there's a lot of greenery. It's also car-free, which makes it nice and quiet on the street! Once there was a fight between a bunch of street youths, but I don't think they were from the neighbourhood. Because I hardly ever see people hanging around on the street, which I also like. My room is practically on the pavement and I never have any trouble with anyone. I also come from a village and was a bit afraid of the city's hustle and bustle, but it's not like that at all, so that's really great.
