The asking price of €359,000 is 22% below the neighbourhood average of €463,000. However, the floor area of 74 m² is 27% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 101 m². Compared to other apartments in Hilversum, the price per m² works out to about €4,851, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,781 per m². So it's priced keenly overall, but the smaller size means you're paying a bit more per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. You can expect moderate energy costs, but not as low as a modern A-label home. In the neighbourhood, about 43% of homes have label A or better, so this one is slightly less efficient than the newer stock.
The train station is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That makes it convenient for commuting without being right on top of the tracks.
Two primary schools are within a couple of streets away: Nassauschool (117 m) and De Wilgetoren (130 m). There's also OBS De Windkanter for vrijeschoolonderwijs at 480 m. For secondary education, the nearest school is 0.7 km away.
A PLUS supermarket is just around the corner at 368 m, and a Lidl is a five-minute walk at 584 m. There's also a SPAR express at 734 m and an AH to go at 988 m, so daily shopping is very convenient.
The neighbourhood recorded 123 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for an urban area with over 4,000 residents. It's always a good idea to check recent crime maps for your specific street.
The Kleine Driftbuurt has a mix of singles and families, with a large share of residents aged 25-45. About 61% of homes are single-family houses, but this apartment fits well in the area. The average household size is 2.0, so it's not overly family-dominated.

How residents experience their district
I have lived in the Geuzenbuurt for 16 years, schools, supermarket. The station and the city centre are a 10-minute walk away, there is a playground on every corner. And there are several primary and secondary schools in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIGreat neighbourhood, working-class neighbourhood where everyone looks out for each other and we help each other when necessary without expecting payment.
Auto-translated to English by AInice neighbourhood, unfortunately the neighbourhood is going downhill due to foreign Dutch people and drug dealers
Auto-translated to English by AIGood, lots of friends and my work is in the neighbourhood. The residents are 9/10 times very friendly and there's always something fun going on.
Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in the Besselstraat my whole life and wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Everything is nearby (think: supermarket, school, petrol station, swimming pool, playgrounds, city centre, heath/forest/park, hospital/GP/pharmacy, young and old, snack bar, small beach, etc.) and everything still has the beautiful Dudok architecture. You can leave your bike in the garden without a lock and there is very good communication between neighbours thanks to the WhatsApp neighbourhood watch. Every year a outdoor play day is organised and from 10:00 to 22:00 it's nothing but fun for young and old. We also have good rules in the neighbourhood regarding nuisance, such as set times for DIY work so that as few people as possible are bothered by it. It's always very cosy; for example, when you take a walk on the heath, almost everyone says hello to you. A very nice neighbourhood to grow up in as there are many young families. The heath always looks very clean and beautiful, there are wild bulls and you can walk/picnic/run/mountain bike from sunrise to sunset. There has been some nuisance around the Lorentzvijver by foreigners, but that is very minimal and if you don't interfere they don't do anything, just send the police.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in this neighbourhood for 5 years, I think it's a lovely green neighbourhood! There are also many playgrounds, which the kids love! There are also many grass fields where you can play with the kids. And Seinhorst is right in the neighbourhood, so you're sure to have a supermarket, Etos, Gal&Gal, Blokker and a car park available.
Auto-translated to English by AIPlus points are that there are many playgrounds and that there is a forest
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful green neighbourhood, but there are many roads with too few traffic lights to cross safely. Lots of playgrounds for children, a skate park and many grassy areas to play or walk the dog. A cosy neighbourhood that is accessible to almost everyone!

How residents experience their municipality
Generally good but things can always be better in my opinion
Auto-translated to English by AISafe neighbourhood, occasionally some nuisance from young people
Auto-translated to English by AIWithin a reasonable distance you have supermarkets or the train station. Easily accessible from the motorway
Auto-translated to English by AIYou can easily get home without worries

Auto-translated to English by AINice area in terms of location, close to the forest, the centre and the cosy Gijsbrecht also nearby. Schools and supermarkets around the corner, really a top location. Fellow residents think too much of themselves. Small gardens, so close together and very noisy. Both young people at night and small children during the day. But a nice mix of ages.
Auto-translated to English by AINeighbourhood itself is fine. Nothing unpleasant. Only the Diependaalselaan is very busy and suffers from exhaust fumes. Speed bumps at the end would make a big difference. They always rev their engines right in front of the flats... Maybe more supervision there...
