- 'One-Stop School Zone' Close to Elementary, Middle, and High Schools, Maximizing Residential Value with Strong Housing Demand
- Located in Gugyo-ri, Yangyang-eup, Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do, Comprising a Total of 279 Units with Exclusive Areas of 59, 84, 99, 119, and 129㎡
The ‘one-stop school zone’ apartments are gaining attention. Even within the same area, the residential value varies depending on whether the one-stop school zone is met, and these apartments are showing high popularity among the major demand group in the housing market, the 30-40 age households.
A one-stop school zone means that elementary, middle, and high schools are all within walking distance. This not only ensures safe commuting for children but also creates an ideal learning environment as various educational facilities are located nearby. Due to these advantages, one-stop school zone apartments form a strong housing demand, especially among parents.
The upward trend of one-stop school zones continues. According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, in Dongtan 2 New Town, ‘Dongtan Station Shibeom Geumgang Pentarium Phase 3’ is located right next to Ain Elementary School, with Cheonggye Middle School and Dongtan Central High School within walking distance. Due to these location conditions, a 99㎡ unit was traded for 1 billion KRW on March 10, which is 30 million KRW higher than the January transaction price. Considering the recent housing market atmosphere, this is an unusual result.
One-stop school zone apartment near Yangyang Elementary, Middle, and High Schools, excellent transportation, and outstanding accessibility to Seoul ‘in the spotlight’
Meanwhile, a new one-stop school zone apartment is attracting attention in the upcoming pre-sale market. ‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First’ is the main subject.
‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First’ is located in Gugyo-ri, Yangyang-eup, Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do, and is developed on a scale of 279 units with 2 basement floors and 26 above-ground floors, ranging from 59 to 129㎡ in exclusive area. Among these, the 84㎡ mid-sized units account for more than 80% of the total units. ‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First’ is implemented by Korea Asset Trust and constructed by Kumho Construction.
Right next to this complex is Yangyang Elementary School, enabling safe walking commutes for young children. Additionally, Yangyang Middle School and Yangyang High School are also within walking distance. This means it is a ‘one-stop school zone’ where all elementary, middle, and high schools are nearby. Furthermore, the Yangyang Education Library is adjacent, making it perfect for fostering a learning atmosphere.
Besides this educational environment, ‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First’ has various locational advantages. Distribution facilities such as Yangyang Market and Hanaro Mart are conveniently accessible. Also, with administrative institutions like Yangyang County Office, court, administrative welfare center, health center, and cultural welfare hall nearby, it is expected to form abundant housing demand, especially among public officials.
The transportation environment is also excellent. First, outstanding accessibility to Seoul is notable. The Seoul-Yangyang Expressway is located near the complex, allowing travel to Seoul by car in about 90 minutes. In addition, it is adjacent to the Donghae Expressway, National Route 7, and National Route 44, making it easy to travel to major cities nationwide. Yangyang International Airport and Yangyang General Passenger Terminal are also nearby, providing convenient access.
Benefiting from both nature-friendly environment and development prospects simultaneously... Innovative floor plans rarely seen in Yangyang also attract attention
‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First’ offers a nature-friendly residential environment. The complex is located near Yangyang Namdaecheon Stream and Seoraksan National Park. Through the Renaissance Project, the natural ecosystem of Yangyang Namdaecheon has been restored while becoming a space for residents’ exercise and relaxation. Additionally, many parks and sports facilities such as Yangyang Sports Complex, Hyunsan Park, Salmon Ecological Park, and Namdaecheon Sports Park are located nearby, promising high residential satisfaction for residents.
Various development news in Yangyang-gun is also drawing attention. Near ‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First,’ the Donghae Northern Line Yangyang Station (planned) is scheduled to open. The Donghae Northern Line is a 111.7km single-track railway connecting Gangneung, Yangyang, Sokcho, Goseong, and Jejin. Yangyang Station (planned) will be developed in the Songam-ri area of Yangyang-eup and will be adjacent to Yangyang General Bus Terminal, further improving the transportation environment in the future. Once the Donghae Northern Line and Yangyang Station (planned) development is completed, it is expected to positively impact tourism, regional economic revitalization, and the housing market. Also, the Yangyang Police Station is scheduled to begin construction this year, raising expectations.
Benefits from the lifting of the Naksan Provincial Park restriction area are also anticipated. In 2020, Gangwon-do permitted buildings in the commercial area here to be constructed with a building coverage ratio of up to 80% and a floor area ratio of up to 1300%. This area was designated as a park zone under the Natural Parks Act in the 1980s, limiting development until now. With this building permit, various commercial facilities are expected to be established around the area, further improving residential convenience in the future.
Innovative floor plans will also be introduced. An alpha room will be created in the 59㎡ units of ‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First,’ enhancing the practicality of the living space. Additionally, the 84㎡ units will feature 4 rooms to maximize individual spaces for housing demanders. These designs are evaluated as fresh and unprecedented in Yangyang area apartments.
Meanwhile, ‘Yangyang Kumho Eoullim The First’ plans to open a model house.
