Geuzenbuurt, Hilversum
NeighbourhoodThis 1903 terraced house on Van Leeuwenhoekstraat sits in the Geuzenbuurt, a neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. With 85 m² of living space and a 110 m² plot, it offers a compact but characterful layout. The asking price of €490,000 is in line with the market for terraced houses in Hilversum.
Based on two reviews, the Geuzenbuurt gets a 7.26 out of 10. One resident says: "A communal neighbourhood where every neighbour is there for you. Schools, supermarket. The station and the city centre are a 10-minute walk away, there is a playground on every corner." Another is less positive: "Quiet neighbourhood just outside the city centre but full of whingers. Everyone is unnecessarily on top of each other and causes problems for others purely as a hobby." The neighbourhood Geuzenbuurt is densely populated with 2,650 residents, mostly in one-person households.
For your morning bread, SPAR express is just around the corner, and AH to go and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. Sterrenschool Hilversum is on your doorstep, and Jan van Rijckenborghschool is a short walk. The municipality Hilversum has plenty of secondary schools too, with Lucent College a five-minute walk.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Flevo Makelaars and also appears on Vastgoed Nederland.

I have lived in the Geuzenbuurt for 16 years, schools, supermarket. The station and the city centre are a 10-minute walk away, there is a playground on every corner. And there are several primary and secondary schools in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood just outside the city centre but full of whingers. Everyone is unnecessarily on top of each other and causes problems for others purely as a hobby. Really a shame because the whole neighbourhood is full of it and you can't have a nice chat with your neighbours, you just get dirty looks everywhere. If I had known that earlier, I might not have bought the house.

About Van Leeuwenhoekstraat 47, Hilversum
The asking price of €490,000 is in line with the market for a terraced house of this size and age in the Geuzenbuurt. The 85 m² floor area and 110 m² plot are typical for the area, and the energy label D means moderate efficiency. Without comparable sales data, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to similar listings.
The Geuzenbuurt scores 7.26 out of 10 from two reviews. One resident praises the community spirit and proximity to schools, supermarket, station and city centre. Another complains about unfriendly neighbours and a tense atmosphere. It's a quiet neighbourhood just outside the centre, with a playground on every corner, but the social vibe seems to depend on your street.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to Amsterdam or Utrecht. The city centre is also within walking distance, so you don't need a car for daily errands.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Sterrenschool Hilversum is just 100 metres away, Jan van Rijckenborghschool at 218 metres, and Montessorischool Centrum at 286 metres. For secondary education, Lucent College is 422 metres away. The neighbourhood has a good mix of options.
SPAR express is 389 metres away, AH to go at 456 metres, and Jumbo at 534 metres. Hoogvliet and Dirk are also within a kilometre. So you have plenty of choices for daily groceries, all within a five to ten-minute walk.
Energy label D means the home is moderately efficient. You can expect higher energy bills compared to a modern home with label A or B, but it's not the worst. The house was built in 1903, so insulation may be limited. It's worth checking the exact energy performance certificate for details.
