Homes and buildings in Krugersdorp
Krugersdorp is the gateway to the Cradle of Humankind and the Magaliesberg foothills, so its stands range from small town lots to open farmland. Noordheuwel, Monument, Rangeview and Chamdor have established suburban houses, while Muldersdrift and Hekpoort hold smallholdings, guest lodges and wedding venues. Kagiso, Munsieville and Mohlakeng have township houses that families extend with backyard rooms. Thatch roofs are common on lodges and homesteads, which brings the fire rules into play, and some ground is dolomitic or undermined by old gold workings. Plans are drawn by draughtspersons, technologists and architects who work across the West Rand and quote directly.
The requests we see from Krugersdorp usually come from:
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: approval for farm buildings and homesteads, checked against the rural zoning and the title deed
- Families building a new house: a stamped approval before the first brick, then inspections and an occupation certificate
- Owners adding or changing rooms: approval for additions, with neighbour consent if a building line has to be relaxed
- Shops, offices and restaurants: approval for a shop or restaurant fit-out, including fire department comments
- Developers and builders: a submission for each house type or cluster, with the town planning steps run first
- Churches, schools and crèches: approval for a hall, church or crèche, with fire and access requirements dealt with
- Rental and granny flat investors: approval for a second dwelling or backyard rooms, with the zoning checked before drawing
