Samcheok Housing Prices Surge After Donghae Line KTX Feasibility Approval... 'Triven Samcheok' Emerges as a Beneficiary Complex View original image

The Donghae Line (Samcheok~Gangneung) railway high-speed project passed the preliminary feasibility study in February, marking a turning point in the regional value of the Samcheok real estate market in Gangwon Province. Based on the precedent of apartment prices in Gangneung surging before and after the opening of the Gangneung KTX, there is rising anticipation that Samcheok will also establish itself as a new residential hub along the East Coast.


According to an actual survey by the Korea Real Estate Board, Samcheok’s sales price index rose from 100.16 in February, before the preliminary feasibility study approval, to 100.50 at the end of March. Apartment complexes near Samcheok Station have seen prices increase by approximately 5-10% in just one month. Among individual complexes, Samcheok Gyodong Gwell jumped 7.03% in a single month, while E-Pyunhansesang Samcheok Gyodong also saw a marked rebound, rising 4.61% during the same period.


Industry insiders commented, "The impact of changes in transportation infrastructure is greater in small and medium-sized local cities," and added, "Especially after passing the preliminary feasibility study, the transition from the 'expectation phase' to the 'price reflection phase' speeds up considerably."


Amidst these developments, 'Triven Samcheok' is emerging as a complex that can directly benefit from these transportation-related advantages in Samcheok. Built by Doosan Enerbility, which constructed 'Trimage' in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, this is the first time the 'Triven' brand is being introduced in Gangwon Province. It is located within the Gyodong residential zone in Samcheok, offering excellent access to the planned Samcheok Station on the Donghae Line.


The complex will consist of four buildings, ranging from one basement level to 29 stories above ground, with a total of 418 units. It is a 100% mid- to large-sized complex, comprising 369 units of 84㎡ and 49 units of 99㎡.


Located at the center of daily life with concentrated administrative, medical, and commercial infrastructure—including Samcheok City Hall, Samcheok Medical Center, Homeplus, and Samcheok Central Market—the complex also boasts an excellent educational environment. Samcheok Elementary School, Jeongra Elementary School, Samcheok High School, and Kangwon National University Samcheok Campus are all within walking distance.


An industry official predicted, "Currently, presale prices in Samcheok are at their last levels before the full effects of the transportation boost are reflected," and added, "As the opening of the Donghae Line approaches, prices are likely to rise further by the time residents move in."


'Triven Samcheok' has minimized initial financial burden with a fixed contract deposit of 5 million won and offers interest-free interim payment benefits. There are no restrictions on resale, providing investment flexibility.



The model home is located in Galcheon-dong, Samcheok, and move-in is scheduled for August 2028.
