About Hilversumseweg 4, Laren
At 401 m² on a 1493 m² plot, the price per square metre is around €8,666. That is on the high side for a detached home in Laren, but the size and plot are exceptional. The energy label F means higher running costs, which may affect the overall value. Without comparable sales data for the neighbourhood, it is hard to say definitively, but the asking price reflects the premium for a large, characterful villa in a sought-after green setting.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and will have high heating costs. Given the 1919 construction, you can expect single glazing, an old heating system, and little to no insulation. Budget for significant energy bills and consider whether you want to invest in upgrades to improve the label.
The nearest train station is 4.8 km away. That is about a ten-minute drive or a 20-minute cycle. Public transport connections from Laren are limited, so a car is almost essential for commuting.
Steenbergen is a quiet, green neighbourhood with a low population density. Most residents are older (65+), and the area is dominated by detached homes with large gardens. There are few children, so it is a peaceful, private setting. Shops and schools are within walking distance, but you will need a car for most errands.
The plot is 1493 m², which is very large. The listing does not specify how much of that is garden, but with a house of 401 m², there is plenty of outdoor space. You can expect a substantial garden, likely with mature trees and privacy.
The listing does not mention any monument or listed status. Given the 1919 construction, it is possible but not stated. You would need to check with the local authority or the agent to confirm.
