Description

Introduction

As starters, we bought and modernized this house about 10 years ago. After living here with great pleasure for years, we now want to rent out our house. Some aspects that we have appreciated about this house and its location in recent years are:

Central location in Utrecht
Green neighborhood with Merwede quay and harbor around the corner
Many nice eateries and coffee shops in the immediate vicinity
All basic amenities within walking distance (Kruidvat, butcher, baker, supermarket, shoemaker, dry cleaner, thrift store, playground, etc.)
Nice garden with a view of lots of greenery and the beautiful tree at the neighbors'.
Original 1930s details (panel doors, stained glass draft door, bay window, 1930s tiles in the hallway, floor tiles in the bathroom)
Plenty of storage options / efficiently arranged
Plenty of parking and charging options nearby
Convenient location regarding main roads (no delays towards the highway, cycling out of the city along the water without traffic lights).

Description
This atmospheric 2-room apartment is located on the ground floor at Balijelaan. The house has a spacious living and dining room with a semi-open kitchen, one bedroom, a bathroom, and a generous backyard with a shed and back entrance.

Upon entering the hall, you will find a spacious meter cupboard, a toilet, and a storage room with a central heating boiler, mechanical ventilation, and connections for a washing machine/dryer. The living and dining rooms are spacious with lots of light and have a built-in cupboard with a bench for the dining room.

The modern kitchen is equipped with various appliances, including a fridge/freezer combination, dishwasher, oven, induction hob, and extractor hood. The large wall unit provides ample storage space.

Through the kitchen, you reach the rear part of the house. Here you will find the bathroom and bedroom. The bathroom has an authentic 1930s floor tile and is equipped with a shower, a sink, and mechanical ventilation. The bedroom is divided by a large built-in wardrobe, so the first part can still be used as an office, for example.

From the kitchen, you also have access to the backyard of approximately 30 m². The garden offers a lovely private outdoor space in the middle of the city with lots of greenery. The backyard can also be reached via a back entrance and has a shed for extra storage.

In short, an atmospheric and practically arranged apartment with a spacious garden, modern amenities, and characteristic details in a central location in Utrecht.

Location
The apartment is located at Balijelaan in the popular Dichterswijk, a short distance from the center of Utrecht.

In the immediate vicinity, you will find various supermarkets, shops, cafes, restaurants, and other daily amenities. Ledig Erf, Twijnstraat, and Oudegracht are also easily accessible by bike.

Utrecht Central Station and the historic city center can be reached within a 5 to 10-minute bike ride. In addition, various public transport connections are located in the area, and major roads are easily accessible.

Here you live in a central location with all amenities of Utrecht within reach, while enjoying a spacious private outdoor space at home.
