Homes and buildings in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university town on the Mooi River with a long history, and older sandstone and Victorian buildings in the centre sit beside student flats and family suburbs. Van der Hoff Park, Baillie Park, Dassierand and Die Bult hold houses and cluster complexes that are rebuilt and converted to student rooms. Ikageng and Promosa see RDP houses extended and backyard rooms built for rent. Farmers in the surrounding maize country ask for homesteads and sheds.
