Approximately 8,000 visitors flocked to the model house of 'Gwangmyeong City Pradium Eduheim,' presented by City Construction in the Gureumsan District of Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi Province, over the three days following its opening, reflecting strong public interest.

From the very first day, a steady stream of visitors demonstrated the high demand from prospective homebuyers. A queue formed outside the model house, and throughout the weekend, not only families in their 30s and 40s seeking homes but also older visitors considering properties for their children continued to visit. Visitors carefully examined the complex's scale models and unit interiors, contemplating which type to apply for in advance reservations.

This enthusiasm is attributed to the recent increase in housing prices in Seoul, making Gwangmyeong—renowned for its convenient access to Seoul—a standout alternative residential area.

In fact, one sales representative commented, "With actual transaction prices of major complexes in Gwangmyeong rising significantly, it was easy to observe that genuine homebuyers, anxious about further price hikes, are feeling the urgency to purchase a home before it becomes too late." He added, "As pre-sale prices continue to increase, the price for future new developments is also expected to rise further. For those aiming to buy a home in Gwangmyeong, I recommend securing a unit first and deliberating afterwards."

Visitors especially expressed high satisfaction with the project's excellent product quality and generous usable space. The complex consists of mid-sized layouts preferred by buyers, ranging from 59 to 84 square meters of net floor area, and offers larger utility areas compared to other developments, resulting in both increased spatial efficiency and the benefit of lower unit prices—a point that earned high praise.

For instance, Type D, with a net floor area of 84 square meters, features a three-sided balcony design that significantly expands the additional service area beyond the master bedroom and living room, providing up to approximately 39.6 square meters (about 12 pyeong) of extra space. This service area is not commonly found in standard complexes, meaning that even though classified as a typical floor plan, the unit can functionally offer the equivalent of more than 40 pyeong of space. Additionally, other unit types provide service areas ranging from at least 13 pyeong to a maximum of 20 pyeong.

Furthermore, to preemptively address potential parking disputes within the complex, ample parking space has been allocated, with an average of 1.5 spaces per household. This design is expected to alleviate concerns over late-night parking difficulties or double parking, creating a more pleasant residential environment where residents can conveniently park after work, thereby enhancing the overall quality of life for residents.

Along with product offerings tailored to real residential demand, the project's prime location also attracted the attention of visitors.

The outstanding location and educational environment also stood out. The complex is close to Gwangmyeong Station on Subway Line 1 and the KTX, and offers convenient access to the Second Gyeongin Expressway and Gangnam Circular Urban Expressway. Residents can also benefit from the core amenities of the Gwangmyeong Station area—such as IKEA, Costco, and Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital—as well as the living infrastructure of the Sohan-dong area. True to its name 'Eduheim,' the complex is within walking distance of educational institutions spanning all school ages, including the public Balgeunbit Kindergarten, Seomyeon Elementary School, Anseo Middle School, and Changui Management High School, while proximity to Sohan district's educational institutions is also excellent.

Meanwhile, Gwangmyeong City Pradium Eduheim is located within the Gureumsan District of Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi Province, and comprises six buildings, ranging from two basement levels to 22 above-ground floors, with a total of 426 units of 59 to 84 square meters of net floor area. Notably, this is the first phase of the total 930-unit City Pradium brand town being developed in the Gureumsan District.

This project is expected to continue the trend of high subscription competition, as recent new pre-sale complexes in Gwangmyeong have seen strong application rates. Notable complexes like 'Cheolsan Station Xi' (38-to-1 ratio) and 'Hill State Gwangmyeong 11' (36.7-to-1 ratio), both recently supplied in Gwangmyeong, recorded double-digit competition rates. Therefore, the high level of visitor interest following the model house opening is anticipated to lead to similarly impressive subscription results.

The upcoming schedule for Gwangmyeong City Pradium Eduheim is as follows: special supply applications on September 29, priority (for residents of the area) applications on September 30, general priority applications on October 1, and second-priority applications on October 2. Winners will be announced on October 12, and official contract signings for successful applicants will take place at the model house over three days from October 24 to October 26.

The Gwangmyeong City Pradium Eduheim model house is located in Iljik-dong, Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi Province, and move-in is scheduled for the first half of 2029.
