Van der Helststraat 9, Utrecht

This terraced house on a quiet street in Utrecht's Schildersbuurt has a compact 70 m² floor plan spread over three floors.

Schildersbuurt

The Schildersbuurt scores an 8.96 out of 10 from three resident reviews. One resident says: "I've lived here my whole life, and there are many good things about this neighbourhood, like the peace and quiet and the number of cats and dogs. Also nice people!" Another notes: "The neighbourhood concierge is a great addition and ensures a pleasant atmosphere. The cosy shops in the area make shopping a pleasure, especially with Wilhelminapark nearby." The area is densely populated with many young adults and singles, and most homes were built before 1945. The neighbourhood Schildersbuurt is known for its pre-war character.

Life on the street

For daily groceries, the PLUS is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. The Utrechtse Schoolvereniging and Prof. Kohnstammschool are both within a five-minute walk, while St. Bonifatiuscollege is also close by. Wilhelminapark is a couple of streets away for a stroll. The municipality Utrecht offers extensive amenities, but the immediate area has everything you need on foot.

Quiet, but a lot of rubbish.

I've lived here my whole life, and there are many good things about this neighbourhood, like the peace and quiet and the number of cats and dogs (which I really like). Also nice people!=) But there's always a lot of rubbish on the street and rubbish bags next to the neighbourhood container. Not very nice.... it also smells here sometimes, but that's probably due to the sewerage. In terms of facilities and surroundings, it's a fine neighbourhood to live in.

Pleasant atmosphere

I am very satisfied with the neighbourhood where I live. The neighbourhood concierge is a great addition and ensures a pleasant atmosphere. The cosy shops in the area make shopping a pleasure, especially with Wilhelminapark nearby. And the Kohnstammschool is a hidden gem that makes the neighbourhood special for children's education.

Frequently asked questions

About Van der Helststraat 9, Utrecht

Is €495,000 a fair price for this house?

The asking price of €495,000 is 37% below the neighbourhood average of €784,250, but the home is also smaller (70 m² vs 116 m² average) and has an energy label G. Given the compact size and poor energy efficiency, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a terraced house in need of modernisation in this area.

What is the energy label and what does it mean?

The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home has poor insulation and high heating costs are to be expected. In the Schildersbuurt, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war house, but you should budget for significant energy bills.

How is the neighbourhood for families?

The Schildersbuurt has a mix of households: about 460 with children and 465 without, plus many singles. Residents mention peace and quiet, a neighbourhood concierge, and good schools like the Prof. Kohnstammschool. However, one review notes rubbish on the streets and occasional smells from the sewerage.

What public transport is nearby?

The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle.

How does the size compare to other homes in the area?

At 70 m², this home is 40% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 116 m². Terraced houses in the Schildersbuurt tend to be compact, but this one is on the smaller side even for the area.

What is the crime rate like?

The neighbourhood recorded 119 total crimes in the latest data. With 3,555 residents, that's roughly 33 crimes per 1,000 people, which is moderate. Residents generally describe the area as quiet and pleasant.
