- Announcement released on the 17th, applications accepted via Subscription Home on the 19th, winners announced on the 24th
- Any domestic resident aged 19 or older can apply regardless of subscription account, re-winning restrictions, or place of residence
The Gwangmyeong City Gurumsan District urban development project, "Gwangmyeong Useung Hanneuldeul La Foret," is conducting its second round of discretionary supply subscription. As the first private sale apartment in the Gurumsan District, which is highly anticipated even in Gwangmyeong City?considered practically part of the Seoul living area?this project carries symbolic significance. Additionally, it has set a reasonable sale price that contrasts with the recent continuous rise in prices, drawing considerable attention.
The discretionary supply targets are standard-sized units with exclusive areas of 83㎡ and 93㎡, and applications will be accepted through the Subscription Home website on the 19th. Anyone aged 19 or older can apply regardless of whether they have a subscription savings account or restrictions on re-winning. The announcement of successful applicants will be on the 24th.
The greatest strength of Gwangmyeong Useung Hanneuldeul La Foret is its reasonable sale price. The sale price for the standard-sized units of 83~84㎡ is set in the 900 million KRW range, which is about 200 to 300 million KRW lower compared to other supply complexes in Gwangmyeong City, where similar units are priced around 1.1 to 1.2 billion KRW.
Moreover, in nearby Seoul areas adjacent to Anyang and other regions, the sale price for standard-sized units has recently surpassed 1.5 billion KRW, making the price advantage even more significant, according to industry evaluations.
Furthermore, with the recent interest rate cuts, consumer interest in the sales market has risen again. In major metropolitan areas, there is ongoing interest in so-called "jupjup" opportunities such as discretionary supply and non-ranking subscriptions that offer price competitiveness, which is expected to further boost popularity.
An industry insider stated, "Recently, the government announced plans to reform the non-ranking subscription system, which has been controversial due to 'lottery subscriptions' and 'jupjup.' Going forward, only households without homes will be eligible to apply, which is expected to cause a concentration of demand trying to avoid these changes."
Meanwhile, Gwangmyeong Useung Hanneuldeul La Foret is an apartment complex located in Block A4 of the Gwangmyeong Gurumsan District urban development project (total 5,029 households). It consists of 10 buildings ranging from 2 basement floors to a maximum of 18 floors above ground, with a total of 444 households. Unlike Gwangmyeong Cheolsan, where mostly small-sized units were supplied, this complex offers medium to large-sized units of 83㎡ and 93㎡, featuring a 4-bay design.
Since the complex is located in Gwangmyeong, known as part of the Seoul living area, its excellent accessibility to Seoul stands out. It offers convenient access to KTX Gwangmyeong Station and Seoul Metropolitan Subway Lines 1 and 7, and is close to Soha IC, the 2nd Gyeongin Expressway, and the Gangnam Circular Expressway, allowing travel to the Gangnam area within 20 minutes. Additionally, Seomyeon Elementary School and Anseo Middle School are within walking distance, providing a safe educational environment for young children.
Along with this, the Gurumsan Urban Natural Park (approximately 670,000㎡), which is about three times the size of Yeouido Park (approximately 230,000㎡), is adjacent, offering a pleasant living environment. Residents can also enjoy abundant living infrastructure such as IKEA, Lotte Mall, Costco, and E-Mart in the Gwangmyeong Station area.
A real estate official from Gwangmyeong City stated, "Moreover, the Gurumsan District, where the complex is being developed, is expected to form a new residential hub and expand Gwangmyeong’s residential area through various linked housing developments, raising its future value. Nearby, the 3rd New Town development of Gwangmyeong-Siheung District is underway, and projects like Gwangmyeong Hagon District and Gwangmyeong Haan 2 District are also planned, which are expected to create synergistic effects."
