Buying a house in Blaricum: the housing market in 2026
Blaricum is one of the three Gooi villages that, together with Laren and Huizen, form the heart of the Gooi region. The village is known for its rural character, the vast heathlands, and its proximity to both nature and the Randstad. With only 12,724 inhabitants, Blaricum feels village-like and quiet, but via the A27 and A1 you are within half an hour of Amsterdam, Utrecht or Amersfoort. This makes the village popular with families and home-movers looking for space without completely letting go of the city.
The housing market in Blaricum is firmly priced. The average purchase price over the past year was €1,148,900, with a range of €290,000 to €4,200,000. The average WOZ value is €843,000. About 70% of homes are owner-occupied, compared to 30% rented. Supply is limited: in the past year, only 40 homes changed hands. This makes the market tight, especially for the more popular segments. At the top of this page you will find current asking prices, selling times and current supply. Buurtje.nl bundles homes from more than 1,500 sources and combines this with neighbourhood scores and resident reviews, so you not only find a house, but also the right neighbourhood.
The best neighbourhoods to buy a house in Blaricum
Blaricum is a compact municipality, but the character still differs per neighbourhood. Whether you are looking for a villa on the edge of the heath or an affordable apartment closer to the centre, each neighbourhood has its own atmosphere and supply. Below are the main areas listed.
Blaricum-Dorp, the green heart of the Gooi
The old village centre of Blaricum is where the village shows its charm the most. Around the Dorpsstraat and the Torenlaan you will find characteristic farmhouses, 1930s homes and newer villas on spacious plots. It is a neighbourhood that particularly attracts families with children and home-movers seeking peace and space. Primary schools are within walking distance, and the Fransche Kamp offers a nice piece of nature around the corner. Residents appreciate the village atmosphere and give the neighbourhood high scores on Buurtje.nl. "You still know your neighbours here and the children play outside on the street," writes one resident. Prices here are around or above the municipal average, especially for detached homes.

Bijvanck, spacious family homes from the 1970s
North of the village centre lies Bijvanck, a residential area built in the 1970s and 1980s. Here you will find terraced houses, semi-detached houses and some detached homes, often with large gardens. The neighbourhood is popular with young families due to the more affordable entry compared to the village itself. There is a primary school nearby and the Bijvanck shopping centre provides for daily groceries. The neighbourhood score is around 7.5 among residents, who particularly appreciate the peace and child-friendly layout. If you are looking to buy a home in Blaricum without immediately spending more than a million, this is where you will first end up.
Blaricummermeent, modern and well-planned
The Blaricummermeent is the newest expansion of the village, built from the 2000s onwards in the former polder. It is a modern neighbourhood with sleek architecture, lots of water and wide avenues. Relatively many young families and dual-income couples live here. The neighbourhood has its own schools, a sports park and good bus connections towards Hilversum and Huizen. The neighbourhood scores well on amenities and safety. The homes are on average slightly smaller than in the old village, but the state of maintenance is excellent. Prices are slightly below the Blaricum average, making this neighbourhood interesting for those who want to buy a newer home in Blaricum.
Villa area around the Tafelbergheide
On the south side of Blaricum, towards Laren and the Blaricum heath, lie the more expensive villa neighbourhoods. Here you will find detached homes on plots sometimes exceeding 1,000 square metres, hidden among the greenery. This segment attracts wealthy buyers and is responsible for the outliers up to €4,200,000 in the price range. The peace here is complete, but amenities are further away. This is Blaricum at its most exclusive.
In addition to these areas, there are also smaller neighbourhoods such as the ribbon along the Huizerweg and the edges towards Huizen, where you can sometimes be slightly more affordable.

What to look out for when buying a home in Blaricum?
Firstly: look carefully at the differences between the neighbourhoods. The price difference between a terraced house in Bijvanck and a villa near the Tafelbergheide is enormous. Determine in advance what you are looking for and what type of neighbourhood suits you. The neighbourhood scores on Buurtje.nl help you compare objectively on points such as safety, amenities and atmosphere.
Secondly: the market in Blaricum is tight. With only 40 sales per year, little supply becomes available. Be prepared for quick decisions and take into account overbidding, especially in the segment up to €800,000. Make sure your financing is in order before you go viewing.
Thirdly: accessibility differs per neighbourhood. The Blaricummermeent is closer to the A27, while the village itself is quieter but also further from the motorway. If you commute daily, that makes a difference. Naarden-Bussum station is the nearest train stop.
Finally: also consider renting a home in Blaricum if the purchase prices are out of reach. With an average income of €60,900 in the municipality, the leap to an owner-occupied home of over a million is substantial for many people.
