- In the Post-Corona Era, 'Comfort' Emerges as the Major Trend in Housing
- Nature-Friendly Terrace Houses Combine the Natural Environment of Country Homes with the Convenience of Apartments
Changes are emerging in housing trends in the post-COVID-19 era.
According to The Research Group's ‘2020 Residential Space Consumer Awareness Survey’ conducted at the end of last year with 1,000 homeowners in the Seoul metropolitan area, 75.2% of respondents cited an increase in time spent within their living spaces as the most significant change compared to before the COVID-19 outbreak.
Additionally, when asked whether they valued ‘upgraded facilities and eco-friendliness’ or ‘affordable sale prices’ more, 50.1% of respondents chose ‘upgraded facilities, services, and excellent quality,’ significantly surpassing the 7% who preferred ‘affordable sale prices.’
Such changes in daily life due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic are influencing housing selection criteria, with terrace houses gaining popularity.
For example, ‘Hillstate Rapiano Samsong,’ constructed by Hyundai Engineering & Construction and opened for subscription on the 4th and 5th, closed with a high average competition rate of 8.36 to 1 and a peak competition rate of 55.50 to 1. Also, ‘Hoban Summit La Terrace,’ supplied by Hoban Construction in the Osan Segyo District of Gyeonggi Province, recorded an average competition rate of 14.66 to 1 with 2,889 applicants for 197 units (excluding special supply) in the first priority subscription on the 6th.
In this context, ‘Jukjeon Terrace&139,’ currently on sale as a post-COVID eco-friendly housing option, is attracting attention from buyers.
‘Jukjeon Terrace&139’ is located in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, and consists of a total of 139 units. The construction is handled by Dongkwang Construction, which boasts over 60 years of tradition and has built projects such as Hwamaesil Dongkwang Viewwell in Suwon. The main specialized design and architecture are led by Cho Seongwook, principal of Cho Seongwook Architectural Office, a terrace house specialist widely known for designs like Unyang Station Rapiano and Banseokheon, raising expectations further.
Eco-friendly terrace houses offering a pleasant natural environment with forest proximity...
‘Jukjeon Terrace&139’ consists entirely of terrace units and boasts comfort through the application of various spaces.
In particular, the independent structure of the 2nd and 3rd floors creates an excellent sense of space, and individual terraces are introduced in all units to enhance value. Generous spacing between buildings ensures privacy for each household and eliminates concerns about noise between floors, while ample parking spaces contribute to a comfortable living environment.
Moreover, convenience is enhanced by adopting a collective management system similar to apartments, including security facilities and individual storage rooms for each unit. High-end community facilities such as a fitness center, book caf?, guest house, and forest walking trails will be provided to increase resident satisfaction.
Additionally, the site features a slope design that does not artificially cut into the mountain and is surrounded on three sides by forest, offering forest views. Nearby are Jukhyun Village Central Park, Baesujipark, Sodam Park, and Hanseong Country Club, providing residents with forest proximity and a pleasant natural environment through adjacent parks and walking trails.
‘Jukjeon Terrace&139’ equipped with excellent transportation networks, safe school zones, and abundant commercial infrastructure
‘Jukjeon Terrace&139’ also boasts excellent transportation conditions.
It is located near Jukjeon Station and Bojeong Station on the Bundang Line, providing convenient access not only to the Gangnam area but also to Suwon and Bundang, enhancing commuting convenience for office workers. Upon the opening of the GTX-A Line Yongin Station (planned to be a transfer center with Suin-Bundang Line Guseong Station) in 2023, travel to Samsung Station will take about 10 minutes and to Gangnam Station about 20 minutes. The proximity to the Gyeongbu Expressway and Bundang-Suseo Expressway allows fast and convenient travel to major cities such as Seoul, Suwon, Pangyo, and Bundang.
Furthermore, various commercial infrastructures nearby are noteworthy. The complex is close to Shinsegae Department Store Gyeonggi Branch and E-Mart Jukjeon Branch, making shopping convenient. The core commercial area of Kkotmae Village in Bojeong-dong is also nearby, offering diverse dining and entertainment options.
Especially, with the designation of ‘Gyeonggi Yongin Platform City’ as an urban development zone and the commencement of project promotion, abundant future value is expected.
Gyeonggi Yongin Platform City is scheduled for completion in 2025 and is anticipated to transform Yongin City into a new growth hub in the southern metropolitan area, becoming a transportation hub based on the Great Train Express (GTX), a self-sufficient economic city, and an eco-friendly city.
