Veidekke ASA: Veidekke to build 62 homes at Sørenga in Oslo
Today Veidekke Entreprenør was awarded the contract to build 62 flats on the
Sørenga pier in Oslo for Sørenga Utvikling. The project will be executed as a
turnkey contract valued at NOK 205 million, excluding VAT.
In addition to the 62 flats, Veidekke will build commercial premises on the
ground floor of the project. The contract thus comprises a total of 10,100 m(2)
gross area. The building will be constructed of in situ concrete with
prefabricated balcony and stair elements. The façades will primarily be brick
with wood details. The flats will be equipped with exclusive kitchen and
wardrobe solutions, parquet flooring with underfloor heating and high-standard
bathrooms.
The top flats will have large roof terraces with a sea view, and there will
additionally be a communal roof terrace for all residents. The project has been
well-received by the market, and more than 60 % of the flats have been sold
since sales started.
Veidekke starts concrete work in February, and occupation is planned for the
third quarter of 2015.
