Hanwha Forena Jije Station model home draws crowds, tops real estate platform rankings

Hanwha's construction division has opened the model home for Hanwha Forena Jije Station in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, kicking off its official pre-sale schedule.

The model home, which opened Friday, drew a steady stream of prospective buyers from the first day, according to the company. Visitors ranging from couples with young children to middle-aged and older residents toured the units and consulted with sales staff.

On opening day, the complex topped the real-time popularity rankings on Hogangnono, a real estate platform.

The complex will rise in the Pyeongtaek Jije Station living zone, with 2 below-ground and up to 27 above-ground floors across 12 buildings and a total of 1,098 units. By exclusive use area, the breakdown is 452 units of the 84-square-meter Type A, 208 of Type B, 168 of Type C, 122 of Type D, and 148 units of the 116-square-meter type. The 84-square-meter units account for 950 homes, or about 86.5 percent of the total.

Pyeongtaek Jije Station offers access to Seoul Metropolitan Subway Line 1 and the Suseo high-speed rail (SRT). A direct KTX connection from Suwon is also planned, and extensions of the GTX-A and GTX-C lines to Pyeongtaek are under development.

The Samsung Electronics Pyeongtaek campus sits within about 5 kilometers of the complex. Jije Elementary School and Segyo Middle School are nearby, and residents will have access to lifestyle amenities including E-mart Pyeongtaek and Starfield Anseong.

All units are oriented primarily toward the south. The complex will also feature Hanwha Forena brand-specific design elements, including an entrance landscaping concept called Grand Flow and a ceiling-mounted electric vehicle charging system called EV Air Station.

"Interest in Pyeongtaek Jije Station is high, and we are seeing a steady flow of end-user visits drawn by the reasonable pre-sale prices," said Jang Yeong-gi, head of pre-sales at Hanwha's construction division. "The 84-square-meter type is proving especially popular, and we expect the enthusiasm at the model home to carry over into apartment subscriptions."

Apartment subscriptions open Monday with special supply, followed by first-priority subscriptions Tuesday and second-priority Wednesday. Winners will be announced Nov. 18, with official contracts running from Nov. 29 through Dec. 1. The model home is located in the Segyo-dong area of Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province.
