About Kruislaan 2, Bilthoven
The asking price is 24% above the neighbourhood average of €850,200, but the house is also 52% larger than the typical home in Tuindorp (140 m² vs 213 m²). On a per-square-metre basis, the price is in line with the local market. The four detached houses currently for sale in the neighbourhood range from €595,000 to €1,195,000, so this one sits near the top end.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be relatively high. The neighbourhood has no homes with label A or better; most (66.7%) are rated D or lower. You should budget for significant energy bills and consider improvements.
Given the detached nature of the house, there is likely a private garden, but you would need to view the property to confirm.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, about an 18-minute walk or a short cycle. This makes commuting to Utrecht or Amsterdam feasible without a car.
Julianaschool primary school is 594 m away (a 7-minute walk). For secondary education, Het Nieuwe Lyceum (793 m) and Werkplaats Kindergemeenschap VO (854 m) are both within a 10-minute walk. There are also several other primary and secondary schools within 1 km.
With 213 m² of living space over multiple floors, it is likely to have at least 4 or 5 bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan or view the property.
