Secunda notes on house designs
Houses in Secunda tend to be compact and practical: two or three bedrooms, a single or double garage, and a back yard that is easy to wall. Families building in Embalenhle often want three bedrooms on a small stand, and ask for a plan with a flat or low-pitch roof that costs less. Granny flat and small house plans are popular for rental. Keep summer heat in mind and orient the main living area carefully on the stand.
Homes and buildings in Secunda
Secunda is a town that was planned and built in the 1970s for the petrochemical works, so its streets, stands and brick houses follow a regular pattern rather than the older-town sprawl of its neighbours. Owners in the Secunda extensions and around Lake Umuzi extend their houses with extra bedrooms, patios and flats, while Embalenhle and Trichardt see formal housing and backyard rooms for workers who come in from elsewhere. Evander, Kinross and Leandra add farm and smallholding plans. Because so many people rent, landlords and investors are a large share of the plan requests here.
The requests we see from Secunda usually come from:
- Rental and granny flat investors: three bedroom houses designed for letting, with a durable finish and easy upkeep
- Families building a new house: the family house on a suburban or estate stand, with a garage and a covered patio
- Developers and builders: three bedroom house types repeated across a cluster or a row of stands
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a manager's or owner's house next to a shop, lodge or workshop
- Owners adding or changing rooms: two extra bedrooms added to a small house, with the old and new work clearly shown
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: approved plans or a clear listing layout for a three bedroom house on the market
- Churches, schools and crèches: a three bedroom parsonage or teacher's house on church or school grounds
