As Seoul housing prices turn downward due to continuous interest rate hikes, the value of apartments near subway stations is shining even brighter. Apartments in prime transit areas have strong price resilience even during economic downturns, thanks to convenient transportation and abundant living infrastructure. They always have high standby demand and liquidity, making them the top investment choice during real estate downturns when the importance of owning a “smart single property” grows.
Amid this, the new regional housing cooperative apartment “Songpa Podium,” enjoying the double transit station merit of Ogeum Station, has opened its promotional center and started full-scale consultations, attracting attention.
Songpa Podium is a complex planned in Ogeum-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul, consisting of 5 buildings with a total of 596 units (planned) and neighborhood living facilities, ranging from 2 basement floors to 35 floors above ground. It boasts an ultra-prime location just 270 meters from Ogeum Station, a transfer station where Subway Line 3 and Line 5 intersect.
Within a 5-minute walk, residents can reach the double transit subway station, enabling convenient public transportation use anytime. It is also close to major roads such as the Suseo SRT Station, the Metropolitan Area 1st Ring Expressway, and the Eastern Arterial Road, providing excellent transportation premiums for fast access anywhere.
Ogeum High School is just a 2-minute walk away, with Ogeum Elementary School and Ogeum Middle School nearby, ensuring an excellent educational environment. Various educational facilities such as kindergartens and Songpa Library are also abundant within walking distance. Around the apartment, commercial and convenience facilities like Garak Market, Lotte Mart, Hyundai Premium Outlet, Lotte Avenuel World Tower Branch, Lotte Department Store, and large marts are well established, offering a one-stop living environment.
Across the complex lies Ogeum Park, spanning approximately 66,000 pyeong, along with green spaces such as Seongnaecheon Stream and Olympic Park. This adds the value of a park zone to the double transit station premium, providing the best environment to enjoy the leisure of nature in the city.
Moreover, it is even more special to enjoy these residential privileges of the Gangnam 3 districts at an affordable sale price. Those aged 19 or older who reside in the area and are either homeless or own a small to medium-sized single home can join the cooperative without a subscription savings account. The cooperative is recruiting members at around 20 million KRW per pyeong, which is cheaper than the Ogeum Hyundai Apartment, the leading complex in the area, making it a housing supply method that allows for home ownership at a lower price than general sales prices.
Meanwhile, inquiries about Songpa Podium can be made through the promotional center, website, or the main phone number.
