Homes and buildings in George
George sits between the Outeniqua Mountains and the sea, and rain falls in every season. Retirees and lifestyle buyers build in Heatherlands, Blanco, Fancourt and Wilderness, often on steep stands with forest and mountain views. Older homes in the Rosedale and Denneoord areas get extended, while the oak-lined streets near Courtenay Street hold older buildings with heritage value. Pacaltsdorp and Thembalethu have many backyard rooms and extended RDP houses. Damp, wind from the Indian Ocean and fynbos fire risk shape the plans, which are lodged with George Municipality.

Local tips for George
Most asked for in George: retirement and holiday homes on slopes, with backyard rooms in the townships. Who draws them: draughtspersons in the CBD and Blanco, architects on the Wilderness route. A useful tip: ask your draughtsperson how the plan handles rain run-off and damp on a slope.
Jobs range from one room to a whole house. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for a tidy scaled plan of the family house to test furniture, cupboards and a new layout. One local point to raise: all-year rain, steep stands and fynbos fire risk: ask about drainage.
