Liebergen, Hilversum
NeighbourhoodThis 1928 corner house on Jan van der Heijdenstraat sits in a leafy part of Hilversum where Dudok architecture sets the tone. With 119 m² of living space and a 154 m² plot, it's a proper family home. The asking price of €625,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €556,205, but corner houses are rare, there are only 22 homes for sale in Liebergen, and end-of-terrace houses in Hilversum tend to command a premium.
Liebergen is one of those Hilversum neighbourhoods where people actually know each other. One resident, who has lived here their whole life, says: "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." The same review calls it a "perfect neighbourhood to start a family", and the numbers back that up: lots of young families, a mix of ages, and a strong sense of community. The neighbourhood Liebergen is very urban (over 3000 addresses per km²), but the heath and parks are just around the corner, so it never feels cramped.
For your morning bread, Lidl is on your doorstep and PLUS is just around the corner. The Nassauschool is a couple of streets away, and De Wilgetoren is a five-minute walk. After school, the playgrounds and swimming pool are nearby, and the heath is perfect for a weekend walk. The city centre is a ten-minute walk, and the train station is 1.6 km away, a pleasant stroll or quick cycle. The municipality Hilversum has a lot to offer, from cultural spots to green spaces.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Schouten Makelaars 't Gooi and is also available through other channels.

I 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.

About Jan van der Heijdenstraat 271, Hilversum
The asking price of €625,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €556,205 and the median of €507,000. However, corner houses are less common, and the home has a generous plot of 154 m². In the past year, homes in Liebergen sold for an average of €479,703, so the price is on the high side, but it reflects the property's size and character.
The home has energy label C. That's fairly typical for a 1928 house, about 40% of homes in the neighbourhood have label C. You can expect reasonable energy costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern home. The listing does not mention double glazing or insulation, so it's worth checking those details.
