- Complexes Embracing Pleasant Green Spaces Like Gongsegwon and Supsegwon Gain Popularity
- Dongtan Hosu Park Lishuville Successfully Completes General Supply with an Average Competition Rate of 16.8 to 1, Expecting Smooth Progress in Official Contracts
With increased leisure time and the impact of COVID-19, the demand for comfortable living environments has grown, making apartments near parks popular for enjoying a healing lifestyle.
In fact, a survey conducted by Zigbang in March among app users on the "most important location and external structural factors when choosing housing space after COVID-19" found that 31.6% of respondents chose "comfort - proximity to parks and green areas (parks, green spaces nearby)," ranking first. This response rate is more than twice as high as convenience of transportation such as public transit or roads (12.7%).
Having a large park near home allows residents to enjoy clean air and nature, providing a pleasant living environment. Additionally, facilities within the park such as walking trails and exercise equipment can be conveniently used. Especially when a park view is secured, a high premium can be expected, making such apartments highly preferred in the sales market.
Last month, "Godeok Gangil Jeil Punggyeongchae," sold in Godeok 1 District, Gangdong-gu, Seoul, attracted attention as a park-adjacent complex with a large-scale park planned right next to it, as well as proximity to Godeok Waterfront Ecological Park and Myeongil Park, showing a high competition rate of 150.2 to 1 in the first priority subscription. Similarly, "Munsuro Daegongwon Aileen's Garden," sold last October in Nam-gu, Ulsan, located right next to Ulsan Grand Park boasting a total area of 3.71 million square meters, recorded a competition rate of 309.8 to 1 in the first priority subscription due to its popularity.
Moreover, if commercial areas are developed near the park, it is even better. Especially if connected to the local central commercial district, residents can enjoy abundant convenience facilities near the apartment complex, combining a pleasant living environment with convenience, thus increasing popularity.
An industry insider said, "Residential areas close to green spaces like parks have become notable in the post-COVID era as they offer a comfortable living environment and easy outdoor activities. When commercial areas are also established around parks, the area is likely to become a hot spot, and convenient access to commercial facilities near home further raises residential preference, so it is worth paying attention to."
Meanwhile, a public-supported private rental apartment that allows residents to enjoy the most preferred green infrastructure?lake parks and central commercial areas?right in front of them is drawing attention with its winner announcement scheduled for today.
The protagonist is "Dongtan Lake Park Reshville," introduced by Gyeryong Construction in Dongtan 2 New Town, a popular area in Gyeonggi Province. The complex will be built in Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, consisting of 10 buildings from basement level 1 to 29 floors above ground, with a total of 762 units of small to medium sizes ranging from 74㎡ to 84㎡.
In fact, this complex recorded an average competition rate of 16.8 to 1 in the general supply held on the 7th and successfully completed the general supply. The A87 block in Dongtan 2 New Town, where the complex is located, is considered the best location within Dongtan 2 New Town. First, the complex is just a step away from Dongtan Lake Park, which spans about 750,000㎡, equivalent to 105 soccer fields. The Dongtan Lake Park area is being developed as a waterfront-friendly cultural and commercial complex with cultural, shopping, and leisure facilities, and a central business district is located in front of the complex, allowing residents to enjoy a true green life in the city.
Furthermore, the complex is a "Chopuma" apartment embracing Hoyun Elementary School, and a "Haksegwon" apartment located near Seoyeon Middle and High Schools and the planned Dongtan 7 High School. It is also convenient to access large convenience facilities such as the planned Lotte Department Store and E-Mart Traders within Dongtan New Town, attracting much interest from housewives in their 30s and 40s.
The complex boasts excellent proximity to workplaces, being near major companies such as Samsung Electronics Hwaseong Plant, Doosan Heavy Industries, LG Electronics, as well as large industrial complexes including Dongtan Techno Valley, Hwaseong General Industrial Complex, and Dongtan Osan Industrial Complex.
With good accessibility via major roads in Dongtan 2 New Town such as Dongtan-daero and Dongtan Circular Road, commuting to wider areas is convenient using SRT Dongtan Station, the Yongin-Seoul Expressway, and the Gyeongbu Expressway.
In particular, Dongtan Station is expected to open the metropolitan area railroad (GTX) Line A around 2023, which will allow travel to Samsung Station on Seoul Subway Line 2 in about 20 minutes, making access to Seoul's Gangnam area easier.
As a public-supported private rental housing, Dongtan Lake Park Reshville offers residence for up to 10 years (with contracts renewed every 2 years) at a deposit much lower than purchase prices, with rent increases limited to within 5%. There are no acquisition or holding tax burdens, and move-in is possible in October this year, reducing the psychological burden of moving.
Constructed by Gyeryong Construction, Dongtan Lake Park Reshville also stands out for its excellent product quality. Most units are oriented southward to maximize natural light and ventilation. Spacious storage is secured through entrance pantries and alpha rooms, and kitchens are designed with a 'ㄱ'-shaped layout considering workflow to enhance space utilization.
The 74㎡A type features a 4-bay cross-ventilated slab-type structure with excellent natural lighting and ventilation, and provides an entrance pantry for storing bulky items such as carriers and camping or sports equipment that are difficult to store. The alpha room located in the master bedroom has a window, making it bright and ventilated unlike typical alpha rooms, and can be used as a dressing room or hobby room. Additionally, a wireless AP is installed on the ceiling, allowing Wi-Fi use without a separate wireless router.
The 84㎡A type also has a 4-bay cross-ventilated slab-type structure like the 74㎡A type but includes a kitchen pantry and a master bedroom dressing room, which the 74㎡A type lacks. The kitchen pantry is equipped with system shelves allowing various kitchenware, large pots, and bulk food ingredients to be neatly stored, and LED lighting is installed on the pantry ceiling for convenience. The master bedroom dressing room is equipped with 'ㄱ'-shaped system shelves, providing ample space to store clothes as well as bulky items like carriers.
A sales official said, "Dongtan Lake Park Reshville is a complex located in an excellent location within Dongtan 2 New Town, one of Gyeonggi Province's popular areas alongside Pangyo and Gwacheon, and is a public-supported private rental apartment that can be lived in at a relatively affordable cost, recording a high subscription competition rate of 16.8 to 1. Residents can enjoy Songdong Park and Lake Park right at their doorstep, and with proximity to central commercial areas and excellent school districts, it offers more convenient living than any other complex. As it is developed by Gyeryong Construction, which has expertise in constructing numerous buildings such as the Bank of Korea and Seoul Botanical Garden, its product quality is outstanding, and smooth progress is expected in the official contract phase."
Meanwhile, the Dongtan Lake Park Reshville promotional center is located in Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do. The promotional center can only be visited by winners after the announcement, and entry may be restricted for visitors from COVID-19 affected countries, those with fever or respiratory symptoms, the elderly and infants, and those not wearing masks.
