About Van Gelderlaan 42, Hilversum
The asking price of €590,000 is in line with the market for a mid-terrace house of this size in Hilversum. The 131 m² floor area and 159 m² plot are typical for the area, and the energy label C means moderate energy costs. Without specific neighbourhood sale prices, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to similar listings.
The energy label is C, which is average for a house built in 1975. You can expect reasonable energy bills, but not as low as a modern A-label home. The label is based on the original construction and any improvements made since.
Hilversum's main train station is 3 km away, which is about a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride. The station offers direct connections to Amsterdam and Utrecht.
There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Lwj van Hasseltschool (320 m) and Openbare Basisschool Elckerlyc (910 m). For secondary education, Alberdingk Thijm Scholen is also 320 m away, offering various levels from VMBO to VWO.
The Zeeheldenkwartier recorded 125 crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for a very urban area. It's a residential neighbourhood with a mix of families and singles, and the streets feel safe during the day.
The plot size is 159 m², but the listing does not specify how much of that is garden. Typically, a mid-terrace house of this age has a back garden, but you would need to view the property to confirm the layout.
