AreaA classic terraced house in Oudwijk
Oudwijk is one of those Utrecht neighbourhoods where the streets feel settled and lived-in, with a mix of pre-war housing and a strong sense of community. This terraced house on Oudwijkerdwarsstraat sits right in that setting, a 1930s home with a floor area of around 80 square metres. The asking price of €475,000 is sharp compared with the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which comes in at €590,214. That puts this home roughly 20 percent below the local average, and it is also below the average for terraced houses in Utrecht.
The home itself
Inside, the house has four rooms, including three bedrooms and one bathroom, spread over two floors. The total volume comes to 344 cubic metres. According to the agent, the living area is 80 square metres, while the BAG registration lists 81 square metres; the plot is 67 square metres in both records. The house has a garden, and it is offered with full ownership. The agent notes partial double glazing and wall insulation, and the heating runs on a central heating boiler. The energy label is F, which is on the lower end of the scale, so heating costs are likely to be noticeable.
