Buying a home in Oud-Kortenhoef, Kortenhoef.
Oud-Kortenhoef is where you'll find a mix of older villas and newer suburban homes set among wide green spaces—the kind of neighbourhood where you actually know your neighbours. It's quieter than the Gooi towns nearby, but you're only 20 minutes from Hilversum and have direct rail links to Amsterdam. Families here tend to stay put, which says something about the schools and the sense of space you get. If you want room to breathe without being cut off, this works.

What to consider when buying in Oud-Kortenhoef
Pros:
- Direct access to open countryside: the village is surrounded by Gooi nature reserves, making walks to forests like Speulderbos and De Watertuin possible on foot or short bike rides
- Established older homes with land: detached villas and bungalows on generous plots are standard here, not the exception
- Quiet: vehicle traffic is low and the village center has no through-traffic
- Primary school and sports facilities integrated into the village rather than requiring a car trip
Cons:
- Car dependency: Hilversum station is 5 km away; buses run but frequency is limited for weekday commuting
- Aging infrastructure: utilities and roads were built decades ago and upgrades happen slowly
- Limited shop variety: the village center has a supermarket and pharmacy, but specialty items mean driving to Hilversum or further
- Isolation in winter: rural road conditions and minimal public transport make it less accessible during bad weather
