Van Riebeeckkwartier, Hilversum
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Van Linschotenlaan sits in a leafy part of Hilversum. At 63 m² it's compact but well laid out, with an energy label F, so heating costs will be something to factor in. Priced at €300,000, it's below the neighbourhood average of €325,500, which makes it a keen entry point for buyers looking at apartments in Hilversum.
The neighbourhood Van Riebeeckkwartier is a densely populated area with a mix of pre-war and post-war housing. Residents give it an 8.16 out of 10, based on four reviews. One resident says: "Within a reasonable distance you have supermarkets or the train station. Easily accessible from the motorway." Another notes: "It's a nice neighbourhood but lately there are more dealers in the area which makes me feel a bit unsafe." A third adds: "Fairly safe neighbourhood. More nature, plants and flowers needed. More neighbourhood police needed." The area has a high proportion of single-person households and a youngish population, with many 25-45 year olds.
For your morning bread run, PLUS is just around the corner, and SPAR express is a couple of streets away. There are several schools within a five-minute walk: Groot Goylant secondary school and Alberdingk Thijm Mavo are both a couple of streets away, while KinderCampus Hilversum primary school is also close by.

About Van Linschotenlaan 282, Hilversum
At €300,000, this apartment is priced below the neighbourhood average of €325,500 and the median of €325,000. The average price per m² in Van Riebeeckkwartier is €4,675, so at 63 m² this works out to about €4,762 per m², slightly above average. Given the energy label F and the need for potential upgrades, the price seems in line with the market.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the apartment will have higher heating costs compared to a more modern home. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so an F is not unusual for a 1962 building. You should budget for higher energy bills.
Residents give the neighbourhood a safety score of 8.16 out of 10, but some have noted an increase in dealers recently, making them feel a bit unsafe. Others say it's fairly safe but would like more police presence. The total number of crimes reported in the area is 138, which is moderate for a densely populated urban area.
PLUS is just around the corner at 453 metres, and SPAR express is a couple of streets away at 624 metres. For more choice, Lidl is about 1.4 km and Albert Heijn about 1.7 km. So daily shopping is convenient on foot.
The train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes commuting to Amsterdam or Utrecht straightforward.
There are several schools within walking distance. Groot Goylant secondary school is just 156 metres away, Alberdingk Thijm Mavo at 173 metres, and KinderCampus Hilversum primary school at 252 metres. So school runs are very short.
