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 Vossenstraat 23, Hilversum
Yes, it's in line with the market. Recently, four homes in the neighbourhood sold for an average of €642,500, so this asking price is slightly below that average. Given the 101 m² floor area and 109 m² plot, it's a realistic price for a 1939 terraced house in Het Rode Dorp.
Het Rode Dorp is a densely built, urban area with a mix of ages and families. Residents appreciate the location near the forest, centre, and amenities, but note that houses are close together, which can be noisy. Traffic safety around the Albert Heijn is a concern for some. Overall, it scores 6.9 out of 10 from five reviews.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle. It's not on your doorstep, but the neighbourhood has good bus connections for those who prefer public transport.
Energy label C means the home is reasonably efficient, but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, better than older homes with label G, but not as low as a modern A-label. The exact costs depend on usage and heating system.
Yes, several schools are within walking distance. Openbare Basisschool Elckerlyc (primary) is about 650 m away, and Basisschool Vondelschool is 850 m. For secondary education, the Gemeentelijk Gymnasium Hilversum and A. Roland Holst College are both around 700-850 m from the house.
