Centrum, Hillegom
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Henri Dunantplein sits right in the centre of Hillegom, a lively square with shops and cafés just outside your door. At 37 m² it is compact, but the high ceilings and large windows give it a surprisingly airy feel. The building dates from 1886 and has an E energy label, so heating costs will be something to factor in. With a price of €539,000, this home is 27% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood, a premium that reflects its central location and scarcity of studios. For context, studios in Hillegom are rare, which partly explains the price.
Centrum is the bustling heart of Hillegom, with a mix of shops, restaurants and services within walking distance. The area has a high address density (over 2,000 per km²), so it feels urban and lively. Many residents live alone, nearly half of households are single-person, and the average household size is 1.8. There are also families with children, but the neighbourhood skews towards adults and seniors. The housing stock is a mix of pre-war buildings (60% built before 1945) and newer homes, with 61% owner-occupied. For more on the area, see the Centrum neighbourhood.
Your daily routine here is wonderfully convenient. The Dekamarkt is on your doorstep, so grabbing bread or milk takes a minute. Aldi and Albert Heijn are just around the corner too. For school runs, the Johannesschool primary school is a five-minute walk away, and the Fioretti College secondary school is even closer. There are several other primary schools within a ten-minute walk. The square itself has restaurants and a park just a couple of streets away. For a wider view of the area, check out the municipality of Hillegom.
At the time of writing, the home is listed exclusively through Heemborgh Makelaars Hillegom.

About Henri Dunantplein 77, Hillegom
The asking price is 27% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€424,913). However, the average home in Centrum is 86 m², so this studio is much smaller. Studios are rare in Hillegom, and the central location on a lively square adds value. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value a compact home in the heart of town.
The energy label is E. In the neighbourhood, 63% of homes for sale have an A+ label, so this home is less efficient than most. An E label means higher energy costs for heating and hot water compared to a modern home. The building dates from 1886, so insulation may be limited.

The Dekamarkt supermarket is just 36 metres away on the same square. Aldi and Albert Heijn are within a couple of streets away. There are also restaurants, a library (1.1 km) and a park (0.4 km) nearby. The neighbourhood has a high density of amenities.
