About Veerstraat 38A, Hilversum
Yes, it's notably keen. The average asking price in Centrum is €536,620, and the median is €486,000. This flat is 35% below the neighbourhood average, even though its 84 m² is close to the typical size. The lower price reflects the older energy label D and the pre-war construction, but it's still a sharp deal for a central Hilversum apartment.
Label D is average for a 1934 home, it's not the most efficient, so you can expect moderate heating costs. In Centrum, about 30% of homes have label D or worse, while 44% are A or better. You'll want to budget for higher energy use than a modern flat, but the purchase price compensates.
Very convenient. Supermarkets are on your doorstep, Albert Heijn and Dirk are within a two-minute walk. Restaurants are even closer, at 100 m. The train station is a ten-minute walk away, and primary and secondary schools are both about a five-minute walk. It's a compact, walkable centre.
Centrum is dominated by one-person households (about 63% of all households) and young adults aged 25-45 make up 44% of the population. Families with children are a minority. So you'll be among many singles and couples who value city living over space.
In the past year, 82 homes sold in Centrum, with an average selling time of 33 days. That's fairly brisk, it suggests demand is healthy. Given this flat's market-rate price, it may attract interest quickly.
Centrum recorded 777 total offences in the latest data, which is relatively high for a neighbourhood of 3,755 residents. As a busy city centre, it's typical to have more petty crime and nuisance. You'll want to take usual urban precautions.

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 AII 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 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...
