Flatåsen Nordre Boligområde

Utvikling på dyrket jord

Heimdal Eiendom AS is planning a new residential development called Flatåsen Nordre northeast of Flatåsen. The project area consists of approximately 100 decares of fully cultivated farmland registered with very good soil quality. The development site is located close to the forest boundary and within a protected natural environment and wildlife corridor zone.

520 boliger i varierte bygg

The current plan proposes building about 520 housing units, including around 470 apartments distributed across 16 blocks and 45 townhouse apartments in 9 buildings. The project aims to create a mixed residential environment with concentrated small housing and apartments, where between 10% and 40% of the units will be one- and two-room apartments, and at least 25% will be three-room apartments. Building heights will vary from two to three stories for townhouses in the southern part, connecting to existing townhouses, up to six stories for blocks near Høgreina.

Kommunal usikkerhet og stans

A public walking and cycling path will be established through the site, linking existing path networks to the adjacent forest area. However, the municipal director has recommended rejecting the plan due to concerns that it would negatively impact the zero-growth population target, since the area is located about 700 meters from good public transport and local centers. Additionally, the loss of high-quality farmland is a significant issue. The municipal building council postponed its decision to a later meeting.
