Boomberg, Hilversum
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Vaartweg sits in the green Boomberg neighbourhood, a peaceful pocket of Hilversum with wide streets and plenty of trees. At €349,500, the asking price is 66% below the neighbourhood average of just over a million euros, partly because the 75 m² floor area is 58% smaller than the typical home here. Compared with other apartments in Hilversum, this is a keenly priced entry point.
Boomberg feels like a village within the city. Two residents give it an average 8.19 out of 10. One calls it a "familiar neighbourhood" where "you can easily get home without worries". Another says: "It's a safe neighbourhood and nothing happens here." The area is home to many older residents, nearly a third are 65 or over, and a mix of singles and families. Most homes are owner-occupied, and the streets are quiet. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Boomberg page.
For your morning bread, SPAR express is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. The A. Roland Holst College (secondary school) is a couple of streets away, and Basisschool Vondelschool is a five-minute walk. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is just around the corner. The municipality Hilversum offers good local amenities.

About Vaartweg 171, Hilversum
The asking price is 66% below the average in Boomberg, but the apartment is also 58% smaller than the neighbourhood average. Given the 75 m² floor area and energy label E, the price is in line with what you would expect for a compact flat in this location.
The energy label is E. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Boomberg, over half of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. That makes commuting to Amsterdam or Utrecht feasible, though you would need a bike or bus for the last leg.
Residents describe Boomberg as a safe, familiar neighbourhood. One says: "You can easily get home without worries." Another notes: "It's a safe neighbourhood and nothing happens here." The area has many older residents and a mix of households.
