Het Rode Dorp, Hilversum
NeighbourhoodThis 1929 semi-detached house on Loosdrechtseweg sits in a leafy part of Hilversum, with the Corversbos forest just around the corner. At 177 m² on a 340 m² plot, it offers generous family space. The asking price of €1,100,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €642,500, but this is a larger-than-average home in a sought-after street. For context, semi-detached houses in Hilversum typically command a premium.
Residents give neighbourhood Het Rode Dorp a 6.9 out of 10 based on five reviews. One resident says: "Nice area in terms of location, close to the forest, the centre and the cosy Gijsbrecht also nearby. Schools and supermarkets around the corner, really a top location." But they add: "Small gardens, so close together and very noisy." Another notes: "A major drawback is road safety. It has deteriorated significantly since the arrival of AH." The neighbourhood is densely built (82% single-family homes, 79% owner-occupied) and very urban, with 2,728 addresses per km². It's a mix of ages and household types, with many families.
For your morning bread, SPAR express and Albert Heijn are both just around the corner, and Lidl is a couple of streets away. Openbare Basisschool Elckerlyc is a five-minute walk, while Gemeentelijk Gymnasium Hilversum and the A. Roland Holst College are within a ten-minute walk. The Corversbos is on your doorstep for a quick escape into nature. Municipality Hilversum offers a lively centre with restaurants and a train station 2.6 km away.

Nice area in terms of location, close to the forest, the centre and the cosy Gijsbrecht also nearby. Schools and supermarkets around the corner, really a top location. Fellow residents think too much of themselves. Small gardens, so close together and very noisy. Both young people at night and small children during the day. But a nice mix of ages.
Auto-translated to English by AIA nice neighbourhood to live in for 48 years. A major drawback is road safety. It has deteriorated significantly since the arrival of AH. And that's a shame. It's not a question of if something will go wrong, but when. And as residents, you absolutely don't want that. Kind regards, Betty Hendriks.
Auto-translated to English by AIUnsafe traffic situation. Very antisocial driving behaviour. It's a miracle that nothing has happened yet. A lot of nuisance from visitors to the AH. It's also hard to talk to them when you point something out. We have the Corversbos around the corner. And the schools are easily accessible.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in a cosy neighbourhood. The residents are very diverse. I can't report any crime. In short, all good. Kind regards, Betty Hendriks. ✅
Auto-translated to English by AIA busy but cosy neighbourhood to live in. The downside is that traffic rules are completely ignored. Many young families with children have moved in over the past few years, and as older residents like my husband and I (48), we find it hard to make contact with them. Completely different generation. Kind regards, Betty Hendriks.

About Loosdrechtseweg 80, Hilversum
The asking price is €1,100,000, which is significantly above the neighbourhood average of €642,500 for sold homes. However, this is a larger-than-average semi-detached house (177 m²) on a 340 m² plot, and the average sold price includes all property types. Given the size and location, the price is on the high side but reflects the premium for this type of home in Het Rode Dorp.
Het Rode Dorp scores a 6.9 out of 10 from five resident reviews. It's praised for its location near the forest, centre, and amenities, but residents mention noise from close-together houses and unsafe traffic around the Albert Heijn. The area is very urban with a high density of addresses, mostly single-family homes, and a mix of ages and families.
There are two supermarkets just around the corner: SPAR express at 461 metres and Albert Heijn at 464 metres. Lidl is a couple of streets away at 931 metres. So daily groceries are very convenient.
Openbare Basisschool Elckerlyc is a five-minute walk away (379 metres). For secondary education, Gemeentelijk Gymnasium Hilversum (768 metres) and the A. Roland Holst College (883 metres) are within a ten-minute walk. Several other schools are also within easy reach.
The home has an energy label C, which is average for a house of this age (1929). You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like better insulation could improve efficiency.
Hilversum train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle. The station offers connections to Amsterdam, Utrecht, and other cities.
The plot is 340 m², but the listing does not specify a garden. The Corversbos forest is just around the corner (300 metres), providing ample green space for walks and recreation.
