Veidekke: To build Kragerø Resort FRI

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 here. The contract is included in Veidekke's order backlog for Q3 2024.
