- 'Sangdo Station Heriant 42' 42-Story Super High-Rise in Dongjak-gu
- Large Complex of 1,066 Units Composed Only of Highly Liquid Small to Medium-Sized Units
In the housing sales market, complexes that boast a ‘title’ are quite popular. A titled complex refers to one that holds symbolic significance, such as being the first apartment supplied in the area, the tallest apartment in the region, or the first branded apartment within the locality.
These titled complexes are fundamentally recognized by buyers for their rarity, as they offer products that have not been available in the area before. Securing symbolism and scarcity naturally attracts buyers' attention.
As a result, they receive high interest from the pre-sale stage, and after completion, their value is often reflected in housing prices, frequently becoming landmark complexes in the neighborhood.
In fact, even in the polarized early-year sales market, apartments with titles have shown excellent results.
According to the Korea Real Estate Board’s Subscription Home, ‘The Sharp Tangjeong Infinity City,’ which was supplied on January 4th in Asan City, Chungnam Province, attracted high interest due to its symbolism and rarity as the first apartment supplied in the Asan Tangjeong District urban development zone, achieving a high competition rate of 52.6 to 1 and closing in the first priority. This was the highest record among the 18 complexes supplied last month.
An industry expert said, “Complexes with symbolic titles such as the first or the tallest in the area reflect exceptional expectations and serve as differentiating points. Since the sales market remains polarized recently, choosing a place with a title can be seen as guaranteeing stability for investment and home ownership.”
Meanwhile, a super high-rise apartment with up to 42 floors is being supplied in Dongjak-gu, Seoul, attracting buyers’ attention. The protagonist is ‘Sangdo Station Heriant 42.’ As the tallest large complex in Dongjak-gu, ‘Sangdo Station Heriant 42’ is preparing to recruit union members in the first half of this year.
‘Sangdo Station Heriant 42’ is a station-area shift project located in Sangdo-dong, Dongjak-gu, Seoul. It will be developed with 7 buildings ranging from 5 basement floors to a maximum of 42 floors above ground, consisting of 1,066 households with exclusive areas of 59㎡ and 84㎡.
Above all, as a rare super high-rise complex with up to 42 floors in the area, some high-floor units are expected to offer views of the Han River. With such a double title of ‘first and tallest,’ it is highly regarded as worthy of developing into a landmark in the area, and it is drawing even more attention as a prime location within Dongjak-gu.
In fact, it boasts an excellent location. First, the transportation environment is good. The complex is located right in front of Sangdo Station on Subway Line 7, making it a prime station-area location. Especially reflecting the advantages of station-area development projects, a separate entrance connecting the street mall within the complex and the subway station will be provided.
Additionally, accessibility to Olympic-daero, Hangang Bridge, and Nambu Beltway is excellent, making it a transportation hub connecting Seoul’s three major central business districts: Gangnam, Jongno, and Yeouido.
Well-equipped infrastructure ensures a convenient living environment. Nearby are abundant educational facilities such as Sangdo Elementary School, Gangnam Elementary School, Chung-Ang University, and Soongsil University, with excellent access to the Banpo and Noryangjin academy districts. Sangdo Neighborhood Park is about 300 meters away, a 7-minute walk, and Hangang Park is located approximately 1.5 km away, allowing residents to enjoy both park and Han River premiums. Furthermore, major shopping malls in Seoul such as Yongsan I’Park Mall, The Hyundai Seoul, and Gangnam Shinsegae Department Store are conveniently accessible.
There are also abundant development benefits. Nearby, redevelopment projects such as Heukseok New Town and Noryangjin New Town are progressing rapidly, improving the residential environment and developing the southwestern Seoul area into a new residential center. The Jangseungbaegi Comprehensive Administrative Town is also underway, promising future improvements in living conditions and rising regional value.
Luxury designs suitable for a super high-rise will be applied. All units will be primarily south-facing, with a 4-bay design featuring cross ventilation for excellent lighting and airflow. Additionally, depending on the area and type, various specialized designs such as spacious living rooms, dressing rooms, pantries, and alpha rooms will be added, allowing choices according to buyers’ lifestyles.
State-of-the-art IoT systems will be applied to enhance satisfaction, and community facilities such as daycare centers, fitness centers, indoor golf practice rooms, GX rooms, and senior centers will also be excellent.
