Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful neighbourhood with well-maintained houses and gardens, but there is little contact between residents. Although the surroundings are inviting and tidy, you hardly see people on the street and there is little interaction. Everyone seems to go their own way, which makes the neighbourhood, despite its beauty, a bit lonely.

About Spinozaweg 20, Utrecht
The asking price of €550,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €481,316 and the median of €489,000. However, this house has 95 m² of floor area, which is larger than the neighbourhood average of 78 m². The price per m² works out to about €5,789, which is below the neighbourhood average of €6,398 per m². So while the total price is high, you get more space for your money compared to other homes in the area.
The energy label is D. This is a mid-range label, meaning the home is not particularly energy-efficient but not the worst either. In the neighbourhood, 36.4% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area. You can expect moderate heating costs, but improvements like better insulation or a more efficient heating system could bring the label up and reduce bills.
The neighbourhood is very convenient for daily errands. There are several supermarkets within walking distance, including an Aldi and Nettorama just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn a ten-minute walk away. Primary schools are also close by, with Agora Hub030 on your doorstep and the Van Asch van Wijckschool a couple of streets away. A park is within a five-minute walk, and the train station is about a ten-minute walk away.
Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood has a mixed feel. One resident describes it as "Cosy" with a park on the doorstep and a pub nearby, but notes it has a student-like atmosphere. Another says it's a beautiful neighbourhood with well-maintained houses and gardens, but there is little contact between residents, people tend to keep to themselves. So if you value peace and quiet, it might suit you, but if you're looking for a tight-knit community, it may feel a bit lonely.
In the past period, 59 homes were sold in the neighbourhood, with an average selling price of €425,610. The average time on the market was 35 days, which suggests a fairly active market. The current asking price of €550,000 is higher than the average sold price, but this home is also larger than average (95 m² vs 78 m²). So the price reflects the extra space.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is very urban with a high address density, so bus stops are likely nearby as well. The area is well-connected for getting around Utrecht and beyond.
The neighbourhood has a young population, with a large share of residents aged 25 to 45. Many households are single-person (1,465 out of about 2,135 households), and the average household size is 1.7. There are also families with children (410 households) and households without children (670). So it's a mix of young professionals, students, and some families.
The house was built in 1932, so it's an older property. The energy label D suggests that some modernisation may have been done, but it's not highly efficient. The listing does not mention any specific renovations or condition issues, so you would need to view the property to assess its state. The neighbourhood has many pre-war homes (82.6% built before 1945), so this is typical for the area.
