Family house in Utrecht Schilderswijk, Netherlands with children equipment.
We have enjoyed multiple successful home exchanges: 1 to Brazil, 1 to Russia, 2 to Spain, 2 to Germany, and 1 to Finland.
Our charming house, built in the 1900s, is located in the peaceful Buiten Wittevrouwen neighborhood of Utrecht. The house, spanning 170 sq. meters over three levels, includes 4 bedrooms upstairs, 1 ofice, 2 bathrooms, 3 toilets, and a spacious living area with a big modern kitchen downstairs. We completed a comprehensive renovation in 2024, ensuring that our home is comfortable, quiet, clean, and perfectly situated to explore Utrecht and its surroundings.
The house boasts a smaal city garden where you can relax in the sun in the afternoon and have dinner. It's conveniently on a 2 minutes walking ditance from the old town (900 meters from famous Dom cathedral, and a 5 minute bycicle ride to the centrl station (the biggest train station in The Netherlands, connecting you with the whole of the country and Europe). Also nearby we have multiple busses, restaurants and shops on a one minute walking distance, making it a breeze to explore the city center and beyond.
Amenities include 2 LCD television, internet access, computers for guest use, and even a car available for exchange. Our home is child-friendly, equipped with beds. With ample space, it's an ideal retreat for a family or a group. We currently reside here with our family of 5 (and have beds for 8 people).
In Utrecht, you'll discover a rich tapestry of cultural offerings including museums, art galleries, historical architecture, and charming canals. Just beyond the city, the Dutch countryside awaits, with its quaint towns, harbors, beaches, sailing and surfing spots, industrial heritage, and historical river estates.
