About Willem Bontekoestraat 5, Hilversum
At €295,000, this apartment is priced below the neighbourhood average of €325,500 and the median of €325,000. The average price per m² in Van Riebeeckkwartier is €4,675, while this home works out at about €3,986 per m² (based on 74 m²). That makes it a relatively affordable option in the area, though the energy label F means higher running costs.
The energy label is F, which is on the lower end of the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
