Aroundtown secures long-term lease renewal for around 5k sqm at the Newton House office building in Utrecht

Aroundtown, one of Europe’s largest real estate companies, has secured a significant long-term lease renewal at Newton House, a modern office building in Utrecht and part of the MMNT Utrecht Newtonlaan B.V. project. The international Big Four auditing and consulting firm has extended its lease for a total of 4,670 sqm of office space.

The building comprises approximately 26,000 sqm of total floor area and offers a broad range of modern amenities, including a reception, security and concierge service, air conditioning, state-of-the-art elevators, and 24/7 access.

The building is designed with sustainability in mind and has been awarded with a BREEAM certification with a very good score. It features a range of energy-efficient technologies that support both environmental responsibility and operational cost savings. These include a thermal energy storage, mechanical ventilation system with integrated cooling, modern LED lighting throughout the premises, and an energy-efficient climate control system that ensures a comfortable indoor environment while minimizing energy consumption. EV-charging stations are available in the parking garage. This combination makes the property well-suited for companies seeking to align their workspace with modern sustainability standards.

Designed by Rietveld Architects in New York, Newton House is located in the Rijnsweerd Noord office park in Utrecht, on the eastern side of the city between Science Park Utrecht and the city center. The building’s entrance area has recently undergone a complete renovation, with a focus on creating a spacious lounge zone that brings together multiple functions. The staff restaurant has also been fully modernized. The building offers a wide range of shared facilities, including a coffee bar, staffed reception desk, grab-and-go restaurant, and meeting rooms. Additionally, tenants benefit from an in-house restaurant, terrace, and bar.

Newton House is highly accessible by car, located directly off the A27 and A28 motorways at the Rijnsweerd junction. The property is also easily reached from the A12 via Waterlinieweg. In addition, the building is well connected to public transport, with HOV express bus service to and from Utrecht Central Station in around 12 minutes, as well as multiple local bus routes from Nieuwegein, Lunetten, Utrecht North, and surrounding districts.

The successful conclusion of this lease highlights the attractiveness of the location and the quality of the property. At the same time, it underscores Aroundtown’s leasing expertise in the real estate market. With a tenant-focused approach – from dedicated on-site contacts to a 24/7 service center – Aroundtown creates optimal conditions for its tenants and thereby strengthens its position as one of Europe’s leading real estate companies. This agreement once again demonstrates Aroundtown’s strength and expertise within the industry.
