Introduction

Ruimtekwartier Maarssen: The Future of Living and Working

Welcome to Ruimtekwartier Maarssen, a visionary project transforming a former office location into a vibrant residential area for the future. In cooperation with the province of Utrecht, municipality of Stichtse Vecht and various developers, Bakkers | Hommen is shaping this ambitious project. Space Quarter promises a dynamic mix of housing, activity and greenery, located in a strategic spot in the region. A Varied Residential Area: Over the coming years, Ruimtekwartier Maarssen will grow into a lively neighbourhood with 2,500 homes in different price categories. These homes are designed for families, singles, young people and the elderly, with a range of social rented, medium rented and free sector housing. In addition, the district offers space for small-scale, innovative businesses and a range of amenities that enrich life. Strategic Location and Accessibility: Located between Ruimteweg, Maarssenbroeksedijk, Utrecht A2 ring road and Kometenweg, Ruimtekwartier Maarssen offers an ideal location on the Utrecht-Amsterdam axis. The neighbourhood benefits from excellent connections, with Maarssen Station within walking distance and direct access to important bicycle connections. This central location makes it easy to reach the charming Vecht, the historic centre of Maarssen village and modern amenities in Bisonspoor and Bloemstede.

An Urban Masterpiece

The design of Ruimtekwartier Maarssen is a paragon of contemporary urban planning. The district is divided into four unique subareas: Planetenbaan-Noord, Planetenbaan-Midden, Planetenbaan-Zuid and Het Kwadrant. Each subarea has its own architectural identity, inspired by the planets Venus, Mars, Saturn and Neptune. This creates a varied and visually attractive townscape. Sustainability and greenery: Sustainability is central in Ruimtekwartier. The green-blue shell embraces the neighbourhood and provides a range of green and water-related spaces that contribute to the quality of life. Car-free streets and smart parking facilities ensure a safe and pleasant living environment. The design includes green roofs, water storage and energy-efficient buildings, positioning Ruimtekwartier as a resilient and climate-neutral neighbourhood.
