Tuindorp-Oost, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis 1959 terraced house on Winklerlaan sits in the quiet, green pocket of Tuindorp-Oost. With 112 m² of living space and a 156 m² plot, it offers more room than many homes in the area. The asking price of €649,000 is 38% above the neighbourhood average of €469,550, reflecting the larger floor area and the desirability of this part of Utrecht. For context, terraced houses in Utrecht vary widely in price, but this one is on the high side.
Tuindorp-Oost is a calm, family-friendly neighbourhood with a village feel, yet it's only a ten-minute bike ride from Utrecht's centre. One resident describes it as 'a nice quiet neighbourhood to live in', with 'some green spaces and playgrounds for children'. They note that 'the area is easily accessible by car and bike', though the Zuilense ring can get congested. The bus connection is less reliable, the 4 bus 'is not a reliable bus and if it doesn't come, you can wait half an hour for the next one'. The neighbourhood has a mix of housing: 37% are single-family homes, and 55% are owner-occupied. Most homes were built between 1945 and 1970. For more on the area, see neighbourhood Tuindorp-Oost.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there are several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk. Two primary schools are within a couple of streets away: pcbs De Regenboog and Basisschool de Beiaard. For secondary education, Gerrit Rietveld College is a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood also has a chemist and other shops around the shopping centre. The municipality Utrecht offers excellent cycling infrastructure, making it easy to reach the city centre or the green outskirts.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Kraaijkamp Makelaars. The energy label is E, so heating costs are something to factor in.

It's a nice quiet neighbourhood to live in. Here and there some green spaces and playgrounds for children. There's a large supermarket in the area with a shopping centre around it that also has a chemist etc. There are 2 schools in the area, one of which has a less strong reputation, which already limits the choice. The area is easily accessible by car and bike, although the Zuilense ring sometimes gets congested. The bus connection is less good; the 55 goes past the area and the 4 goes through the area. Unfortunately, the 4 is not a reliable bus and if it doesn't come, you can wait half an hour for the next one. Sometimes there is still some rubbish on the street, especially around De Gaard. The large waste containers there really look a mess and have a lot of rubbish lying next to them. My neighbours are friendly. The area is quiet yet still in the city; within 10 minutes by bike you're in the city centre and within a few minutes by car you're on the motorway.
