I think it's a very nice neighbourhood, because there are many things to do nearby, like going to parks and walking paths. I've seen many nice and different houses in this neighbourhood, for example at friends' places, and it's nice that not every house is the same. It is difficult to buy a house in this area due to the costs, but overall it is a safe and cosy place to live near Utrecht Central.

About Wittevrouwensingel 202, Utrecht
The asking price is 42% above the neighbourhood average of €632,147, which is on the high side. However, the plot is exceptionally large at 1100 m², much bigger than typical for the area. The floor area is just 36 m², so you're paying for the land rather than the house itself. Whether it's fair depends on how you value the plot.
The listing does not include an energy label. This is not uncommon for older homes, but it means you cannot estimate energy costs from the listing alone. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels: about 33% are label C, 24% label A, and 19% label D or lower.
