Mbombela notes on house designs
Lowveld house plans favour wide roof overhangs, high ceilings, cross ventilation and a covered stoep that opens to a pool or garden. On the Sonheuwel and Steiltes slopes, a double storey or split-level plan often suits the stand better than a single flat platform. Rondavel and thatch lodge designs are common near White River and Hazyview, which brings fire distance and boundary rules into the drawings. Ask for rain gutters sized for heavy subtropical downpours.
