GS Construction is introducing Xi Apartments on the site of Honam University Ssangchon Campus in Gwangju.
GS Construction announced on the 10th that Sangmu Central Xi, located at 600 Ssangchon-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, is scheduled for sale this month.
This apartment complex will consist of 14 buildings ranging from 3 basement floors to a maximum of 30 above-ground floors, with a total of 903 households and exclusive areas ranging from 84 to 247㎡. By exclusive area, it is composed of ▲438 units of 84㎡ ▲326 units of 125㎡ ▲54 units of 150㎡ ▲42 units of 185㎡ ▲30 units of 205㎡ ▲13 units of 157~247㎡ T. The 157~247㎡ T type is a studio terrace house designed as a duplex on the 1st and 2nd floors, boasting rarity.
The complex is custom-designed with 14 different types to accommodate the diverse lifestyles of residents. In particular, a large number of medium to large-sized units, which have recently been relatively scarce in new supply, is a major advantage.
Sangmu Central Xi will feature premium community facilities and resident services. On the 30th floor of the complex (Building 108), there will be an exclusive sky lounge for residents. Residents can enjoy a relaxing time while taking in panoramic views of downtown Gwangju, the Sangmu district, and Mudeungsan Mountain. For the first time in Gwangju, a CGV premium screening room, CGV SALON, exclusively for residents, will be provided to support leisure activities.
The fitness center equipped with premium exercise machines, an indoor golf practice range with GDR screen equipment at every tee, and a sauna are expected to further enhance residents' satisfaction.
Various services that will further improve residents' quality of life will also be provided. The library within the complex will offer carefully selected books for residents through a partnership with Kyobo Bookstore. A cafeteria operated by SPC Group will also be available.
Additionally, various types of guesthouses, including two-room guesthouses where family visitors can comfortably rest, will be provided and can be used as party rooms or residence rooms.
The Sangmu district, where Sangmu Central Xi is located, is the transportation, administrative, financial, commercial, and cultural hub of Gwangju. It is adjacent to convenient transportation networks, numerous administrative offices including Gwangju Metropolitan City Hall, major banks, large shopping malls, and parks, all of which are closely connected to daily life.
Sangmu-daero, which runs in front of the complex, not only provides easy access throughout Gwangju city but also connects easily to Dongnim IC and Seochang IC, facilitating the use of Gwangju Inner Circular Road and highway access.
Public transportation is convenient with Wuncheon Station on Gwangju Subway Line 1 within walking distance from the main entrance of the complex. Nearby Sangmu Station is a transfer station for Gwangju Subway Line 2, scheduled to open in 2026, providing a double station area advantage. Once Line 2 opens, access to the entire Gwangju area, including Gwangju World Cup Stadium and Gwangju Old Downtown, will become much more convenient. Accessibility to Gwangju Songjeong Station, Gwangju Airport, and the comprehensive bus terminal, U-Square, is also good.
Public institutions such as Gwangju Metropolitan City Hall and Seo Gwangju Tax Office, major banks, and large shopping facilities like Lotte Mart Max, Shinsegae Department Store, and E-Mart are concentrated nearby. In addition, school facilities such as Seogwang Elementary School, Sangil Middle School, Sangil Girls' High School, and Sangmu High School are located nearby.
Residents can use the parks located throughout the vicinity of the complex as walking trails. The 5.18 Memorial Park, accessible on foot, is connected to Mugaksa Temple in the city, providing a space for rest and healing. There is also Wuncheon Lake Park, a cherry blossom spot in Gwangju, Wuncheon Neighborhood Park scheduled for completion at the end of 2023, and a protected children's park in front of the complex that will open upon the apartment's completion.
A GS Construction sales official said, “Sangmu Central Xi is located in the Sangmu district, the central living area of Gwangju, allowing convenient access to high-level living infrastructure, so we expect a lot of interest from demanders. We will do our best to prepare products to provide the best residential environment, including premium community facilities.”
