Hyangnam Station Grove Switzen, a privately sold apartment complex in the Hyangnam area with excellent educational and lifestyle infrastructure and childcare services, will begin first-come, first-served contracts on Saturday, November 7.


Applicants can choose a building and unit and sign a contract on a first-come, first-served basis, regardless of their place of residence and without a housing subscription savings account. Buyers can select their preferred building and unit from the remaining homes. The contract deposit is 5% of the sale price, with a fixed-payment option requiring just KRW 10 million at the time of the initial contract. The complex also offers interest-free interim payments covering 60% of the sale price, reducing the initial financial burden. In addition, because it is located in a non-regulated area, there is no mandatory residency period or restriction on winning a new housing subscription, while the resale restriction period is six months from the date of the winner announcement.


To be built by KCC Engineering & Construction, Hyangnam Station Grove Switzen will comprise 933 homes across seven buildings, with two underground floors and up to 29 above-ground floors. Units will range from 71 to 147 square meters in exclusive floor area. The complex is located in Hagil-ri, Hyangnam-eup, Manse-gu, Hwaseong, Gyeonggi Province. The Hyangnam area has largely seen the supply of public and privately rented housing, making privately sold apartments relatively scarce. According to Real Estate R114, public rental and private rental housing account for 41.8% and 30.1%, respectively, of the area's apartment supply, or 71.9% combined. Privately sold apartments make up just 28.1%, highlighting the scarcity of new apartments from established brands.


One of the complex's greatest strengths is its excellent location for education. Hagil Middle School and Hagil High School are about 100 meters away, while Hwagwon Elementary School and Seobong Elementary School are also within walking distance. In particular, a pedestrian route through Punggyeong Park near the complex allows children to walk to Hwagwon Elementary School without crossing a road, a feature expected to appeal to parents of young children.


The complex also stands out for its abundant lifestyle infrastructure. The Hyangnam central commercial district is about 400 meters away, giving residents convenient access to a range of amenities, including shops, restaurants, financial services and medical facilities. Another advantage is the ability to enjoy an established commercial district from the outset of occupancy. In addition, Punggyeong Park, covering about 43,194 square meters, is located directly in front of the complex, and a 5.65-kilometer circular walking trail connecting the Hyangnam area is also nearby, allowing residents to enjoy both everyday convenience and a pleasant natural environment.


Robust demand from people seeking to live near their workplaces is also seen as a positive factor for the complex, alongside improvements to the southwestern region's wider transport network, including the opening of Hyangnam Station.


The complex's distinctive education and childcare services are also attracting attention. For the first time in Hyangnam, it plans to bring the specialized education brand Jongro M School and Jjaekkakak, a childcare and education platform, together on site. Jongro M School will provide tuition support for two years for residents' children, while Jjaekkakak will make childcare more convenient with reservation and discount benefits exclusive to residents. The plan is to create a residential environment where families can take care of both their children's education and childcare within the complex.


Distinctive design is another strength. The building coverage ratio has been reduced to 12.43% to increase the distance between buildings and secure spacious landscaped areas, while the primarily south-facing building layout enhances sunlight and openness. Open balconies will be included in some tower-style units to improve space efficiency and openness, and selected unit types will feature specialized designs such as separate bathrooms and glass railings designed to preserve views. The exterior will feature the distinctive design of the Switzen Design Manual 2.0, which was selected for the Good Design (GD) Award.


A range of community facilities will also be provided. In addition to exercise and leisure facilities such as a fitness center, golf practice range and sauna, the complex will include spaces designed for different age groups, including Grove Nest, a kids' club for children, and Evergreen Lounge, a silver club for older residents. The complex will also provide about 1.5 parking spaces per household, enhancing everyday parking convenience.


A sales representative said, "Hyangnam Station Grove Switzen is a new branded apartment complex in the Hyangnam area, where privately sold apartments have been relatively scarce. Its strengths include an excellent location close to schools, shopping and a park, as well as distinctive education and childcare services and specialized design. This first-come, first-served contract period, during which buyers can choose their preferred building and unit, is an opportunity, and we expect continued interest from people looking to buy a home in the Hyangnam area."



The model house for Hyangnam Station Grove Switzen is located in Hagil-ri, Hyangnam-eup, Manse-gu, Hwaseong, Gyeonggi Province. Occupancy is scheduled for June 2029.
