Hillstate Yongin Mark Valley, Special Supply on the 14th, First Priority Subscription on the 15th
Recently, apartment complexes offering 'dedicated storage rooms' for each household have been gaining attention. These storage spaces allow residents to store bulky leisure and recreational items, enabling more efficient use of indoor space. They provide additional storage capacity comparable to an extra room, which has sparked strong interest among potential buyers.
According to the construction and real estate industries on the 5th, household storage rooms are mainly installed in the basement floors of each building, making it practical for convenient storage and movement of items. Recently, more complexes are providing dedicated spaces of about 1 to 1.5㎡ per household (with a height of approximately 2 meters). These storage rooms are not included in the exclusive area but are classified as 'service area,' allowing designs without increasing floor area ratio burdens, which is another advantage.
These underground household storage rooms are especially popular as spaces for storing leisure and sports equipment. According to the '2024 National Leisure Activity Survey' released by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Culture and Tourism Institute, the proportion of outdoor leisure activities has remained consistently high, with sports participation at 29.7% and tourism activities at 17.2%. Reflecting this active outdoor lifestyle, demand for storage space for large items such as exercise equipment, travel suitcases, and bicycles is also growing.
In particular, the spread of camping culture has fueled this trend. According to the Korea Tourism Organization's 'Camping User Survey,' the domestic camping population surged by 33.8%, from 3.99 million in 2019 to 5.34 million in 2020, reaching 5.83 million in 2022. Consumers who feel burdened by storing bulky camping gear such as tents, tables, and chairs inside their homes are using household storage rooms as alternative spaces. Recently, there has also been an increasing trend of separately storing infant-related items such as baby products, strollers, and slides.
Additionally, the generalization of balcony extensions, which has reduced indoor storage space, has also contributed to the rising preference for household storage rooms. Storing leisure equipment in living rooms or bedrooms often disrupts neat interior design, but having a separate storage space resolves this issue.
In fact, some recently launched apartment complexes have highlighted household storage rooms as a special feature. Samsung C&T Corporation’s 'Raemian Songdo Station Centripol' Blocks 1 and 2 in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, which completed contracts for all units in February, provided household storage rooms free of charge. 'Pyeongchon Xi Persnity' in Anyang-si, Gyeonggi Province, also sold out all units in January this year, with the provision of household storage rooms cited as a key factor influencing consumer choice.
As such, apartment complexes equipped with household storage rooms are emerging as a trend, especially among major construction companies. In the Namsa (Agok) district of Cheoin-gu, Yongin, 'Hillstate Yongin Mark Valley' is attracting attention by offering household storage rooms to all units.
Hillstate Yongin Mark Valley is located in 7BL of Namsa (Agok) district, Yongin, consisting of 7 buildings ranging from basement level 2 to a maximum of 27 floors above ground, with exclusive areas from 84㎡ to 182㎡, totaling 660 households. The sales schedule includes special supply on the 14th, first priority subscription on the 15th, second priority subscription on the 16th, and announcement of winners on the 22nd. Subsequently, official contracts will be signed over three days from May 7th to 9th.
