Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 Opening Beneficiary Complex 'Hillstate Cheomdan' First Priority Subscription Today View original image

Since the groundbreaking of the Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 construction began in earnest last year, the real estate market in Gwangju has been buzzing. As transportation across the entire city of Gwangju is expected to improve upon completion, apartments near the stations along Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 are also predicted to receive significant benefits.


According to Gwangju Metropolitan City, the construction of Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 is progressing smoothly, having achieved a 16% completion rate for the first phase plan this year. The construction area for phase 1 will be expanded in the first half of next year. Additionally, once the total project cost agreement with the government is finalized early next year, construction of the 20km section of phase 2 is planned to commence in the second half of the year, covering the entire 37km circular line passing through Yongbong, Cheomdan, and Hanam districts.


Once the Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 construction, divided into three phases, is completed in 2025, it will be possible to travel across various parts of downtown Gwangju within approximately 30 minutes. This will not only reduce commuting times for office workers but also foster commercial zones centered around each station area, contributing to the revitalization of the local economy.


An industry insider stated, “When new roads open due to transportation improvements, not only does regional accessibility increase, but infrastructure is expanded nearby and foot traffic increases, naturally leading to a rise in housing prices in adjacent complexes. Especially since the Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 project is currently under construction, its reliability is even higher.”


Meanwhile, a new complex within walking distance of the Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 stations is attracting attention as it is currently being offered for sale. Hyundai Construction opened a cyber model house on the 4th for ‘Hillstate Cheomdan,’ located at 182 Beon-gil, Cheomdanjungang-ro, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, and has started full-scale sales. This complex consists of 3 buildings ranging from 6 basement floors to 39 above-ground floors, with a total of 315 units sized between 84 and 134 square meters.


The subscription schedule begins with special supply on Monday, December 14, followed by first priority subscription on Tuesday, December 15, and second priority on Wednesday, December 16. The announcement of successful applicants will be on Tuesday, December 22, and the official contract period will be held for seven days from Thursday, January 7, 2021, to Wednesday, January 13.


Hillstate Cheomdan is expected to be within walking distance of Cheomdan Station (planned), which is part of the second phase of the soon-to-be-opened Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2.


Gwangju Urban Railway Line 2 is a circular line running from City Hall to World Cup Stadium, Jeonnam National University, Cheomdan District, and back to City Hall. The project covers a total length of 41.8 km with 44 stations and one vehicle depot. The second phase section, including the planned Cheomdan Station, is scheduled to open in 2024. Construction of the first phase is currently underway, and once this line opens, it will enable travel throughout Gwangju.


Located on a major intersection road, it offers easy access to Honam Expressway via nearby Gwangsan IC and Sanwol JC, and allows travel to surrounding areas through Gwangju’s 2nd Ring Road and other routes.


Additionally, the complex is adjacent to several parks, providing a pleasant residential environment. Ssangam Park is located to the north, Cheomdan Neighborhood Park to the east, and Eungam Park to the west, with the Yeongsan River nearby. Some units offer views of Ssangam Park and the Yeongsan River.


Educational facilities such as Cheomdan Elementary School, Bia Middle School, and Sungdeok High School are within walking distance. Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology and Chosun University Cheomdan Industry-Academia Campus are also located nearby.



A sales representative said, “Hillstate Cheomdan is situated in a core area within the Cheomdan district, making it highly anticipated by actual demand buyers.”
