Exceptional Living in a Listed National Monument Dating Back to 1644, in the Heart of Historic Utrecht

Exceptional living in a listed national monument dating back to 1644, tucked away in one of the most beautiful streets of Utrecht’s historic city centre, with views of the iconic Dom Tower. This stately townhouse, rich in character, offers generous, light-filled living spaces, multiple bedrooms, a charming courtyard garden, and a fascinating history that can be felt throughout the property.

A home with a story to tell. The origins of the building date back to the Middle Ages, with preserved oak beams and joists featuring Gothic decorative details. When Haverstraat was widened in 1644, the house was shortened at the front and extended at the rear. Around the middle of the nineteenth century, an additional floor was added, along with a new façade featuring Doric pilasters in the style of Zocher. Centuries of architectural history come together in a remarkable home that continues to surprise and impress.

The location is truly exceptional. Situated in the heart of Utrecht’s historic city centre, the property is just around the corner from Oudegracht, with its picturesque wharves and waterside terraces, and within walking distance of the Dom Tower, the independent shops of Twijnstraat, and Utrecht Central Station. Everything the city has to offer is right on your doorstep, yet Haverstraat remains a wonderfully peaceful place to live.

Let us take you through the layout:

Ground floor: The entrance opens into a hallway with a practical storage area and cupboard. At the rear of the property is the kitchen, providing direct access to the charming courtyard garden. The heart of this floor is the spacious living and dining room, featuring exceptionally high ceilings with authentic exposed wooden beams that immediately convey the grandeur and historic character of the property.

Mezzanine floor: A distinctive eighteenth-century mezzanine level, an exceptional and original feature of this historic property. Accessible from both the hallway and the living room, this level also provides access to a bathroom.

First floor: A second atmospheric living room, once again featuring high ceilings with authentic exposed wooden beams, as well as a large, original working fireplace with an elegant mantelpiece. This floor also includes a second kitchen, a balcony, and a separate guest toilet. The current owners use this level as a comfortable home office, although its versatile layout offers numerous possibilities.

Second floor: The landing provides access to three generously proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom.

Third floor: Beneath the historic roof structure are two further well-sized bedrooms and a storage room. This level also provides access to the roof terrace, offering sweeping views across the rooftops of Utrecht’s historic city centre.

Basement: Finally, the property features a spacious medieval cellar, ideal for storage, a wine cellar, or other practical uses.
