Room at Cambridgelaan, Utrecht Science Park - For Rent

This single room is part of a shared unit located on the 5th floor of the Cambridgelaan complex at the Utrecht Science Park. The room has a living area of 17 m² and is situated in a flat with a total of 4 housemates, offering a sociable living arrangement for students. The complex consists of several high-rise buildings connected by bridges, creating a distinctive architectural structure that resembles a large gateway. Residents benefit from proximity to Utrecht University, the applied sciences institution, supermarkets, a hairdresser, a gym, and local cafés, making daily errands convenient.

The location offers excellent connectivity to Utrecht city center, which can be reached by bicycle in approximately 15 minutes. One notable advantage of this specific complex is that it is the only area at the Utrecht Science Park where free parking is available. However, a parking permit must be requested through the housing provider, and there is a waiting list associated with this service. The complex also features its own bar called the Cambridge Bar, a social meeting point for international and domestic residents, and organizes regular barbecues on the Alpenweide during favorable weather.

The monthly rent amounts to €580.70 in net rent, with service costs adding €131.77, bringing the total gross rent to €712.47. Service costs cover a range of utilities and services including electricity, water, heating, internet, waste disposal charges, cleaning of communal areas, sewer unblocking, and a contents insurance contribution of €1.30. Additional small fees apply for green maintenance, caretaker services, glass fund contributions, and purification levies. Potential tenants are advised to check their eligibility for rent allowance (huurtoeslag), with a maximum allowance of €348.00 available, which could reduce the effective rent.

The accommodation is offered under a campus contract, which explicitly requires occupants to be enrolled students or doctoral candidates. Approved documentation must be submitted before a rental contract can be issued. Smoking and pets are not permitted in the unit. Internet via WiFi is included, though TV signal is not part of the service package. The building does not have a lift. Secure bicycle storage is available, including individual bike sheds accessible with the resident's own key and outdoor bicycle racks, while CCTV surveillance is present throughout the complex.
