Geuzenwijk is a pre-war neighbourhood with a village feel, just north of the city centre. It's densely built (over 4,500 addresses per km²) and mostly residential, with a mix of terraced houses and flats. The area is popular with young families and professionals, over half the homes are owner-occupied, and the average household size is two. There are no resident reviews available, but the streets are lined with mature trees and the vibe is calm and neighbourly. The Geuzenwijk neighbourhood has a strong sense of community.
Your daily routine here is easy: bread and milk from Albert Heijn (a five-minute walk), and the nearest primary school, KBS Wijzer aan de Vecht, is just around the corner. For secondary school, it's a twenty-minute walk or a short cycle. There's a Lidl and a Boni within a ten-minute walk, and the park or public garden is on your doorstep. The municipality of Utrecht keeps the area well maintained, with a GP surgery and a library both within a ten-minute walk.

About Rochus Meeuwiszstraat 29, Utrecht
The asking price of €525,000 is very close to the median sold price in Geuzenwijk (€512,500) and the average price per m² (€6,072) works out to about €5,833 for this 90 m² home, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average. So it's priced in line with the market, not a bargain, but not overpriced either.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a 1930s terraced house. In Geuzenwijk, about a third of homes have label C, and 19% have a lower rating. You can expect reasonable insulation and moderate heating costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern home.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a twenty-minute walk or a five-minute cycle. That's a comfortable distance, close enough for a commute, but far enough that you don't hear the trains.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. KBS Wijzer aan de Vecht is just 83 metres away, and the Prinses Margrietschool is 385 metres. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.9 km away, so older children would cycle or take the bus.

The plot is 76 m², which includes a back garden.
