Fredensborg Fritid AS has commissioned Veidekke to build the first construction
stage of 50 holiday apartments and a parking facility in connection with the
Kragerø Resort hotel. This will be a design and build contract valued at close
to NOK 200 million, excluding VAT.
"We would like to thank Fredensborg Fritid for the commission, their confidence
in us and the excellent cooperation we have had initially. Together, we have
managed to agree on good solutions within a cost level that enables
implementation while also safeguarding the environment and climate. And we will
carry out the work together with our colleagues from Veidekke Bygg Agder," says
district manager Lars N. Hjertås with Veidekke Bygg Vestfold and Telemark.
The apartments will have two to four bedrooms and an underground parking
facility. The location is close to the golf course with access to Kragerø
Resort's leisure activity offerings including a pool, spa, tennis, padel, mini
golf, kayaking and boating and bathing. There are also a number of cycling and
hiking trails close by, not to mention everything else the Kragerø archipelago
has to offer.
"In a slow holiday home market, this is a project that is going against the
flow, and we are very pleased to have Veidekke on board. Kragerø Resort Fri
homes are suitable for rental through the hotel, and the project supports jobs
and the development of activities at the destination," says CEO Håkon Semb
-Arnstorp of Fredensborg Fritid.
Construction work will start shortly with planned handover before the summer
holidays in 2026. Read more about the project
