Room Utrecht (Kapteynlaan)

About the room and apartment:
I am moving back to France and am looking for a reliable new tenant to take over my room in a shared apartment located on the second floor of the De Gaard complex in Utrecht Oost. The complex is close to shops, supermarkets, and public transport.

Please note that the photos shown are from a similar apartment in the same complex. The layout and finishes are comparable.

The surrounding area is quiet and pleasant. Tuindorp is known for its peaceful atmosphere, with plenty of greenery and local amenities nearby. The city center is less than 10 minutes away by bike, and the green areas to the east of Utrecht are just around the corner. For daily shopping, the De Gaard shopping center is only a 5-minute walk away.

The room is unfurnished, but the rest of the apartment is furnished. Additional furniture for the apartment can be arranged in consultation with the current co-tenant, who will remain in the apartment.

• Located on the second floor
