Wendes, Hillegom
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Staringwende 22 sits in a peaceful part of Hillegom, with greenery and parks just a couple of streets away. At 53 m² it's a compact but well-laid-out home, built in 1980 and carrying an A energy label, so running costs should be low. The rent is €735 per month, which is keen for a social-rent property in this area. For context, apartments in Hillegom are generally in short supply, so this is a rare find.

The area is mixed, with young families and older residents, and the streets are traffic-calmed. It's a safe, well-kept part of town, as the Wendes neighbourhood page shows.
For daily shopping, the nearest supermarket is a ten-minute walk away, the PLUS on the corner of the main road. There's also a Jumbo and an Aldi within a couple of streets further. Schools are close too: Basisschool De Giraf is just a five-minute walk, and De Toermalijn Vrije School is about ten minutes on foot.
