Drawings & surveys in Sandton: local notes

Developers selling apartments off plan in the Sandton node order 3D floor plans and interior renders to market units before the first brick is laid. Owners in Craighall Park and Sunninghill order extension plans when adding a wing or a second storey, with neighbours' consent in some cases. Electrical layouts for solar, battery backup and a car charger point are standard requests when a Sandton house is rebuilt.

Homes and buildings in Sandton

Sandton mixes high-value houses with dense towers. Bryanston, Hyde Park, Morningside and Sandhurst have large stands where old houses are demolished or rebuilt with swimming pools, guest suites and high walls, and Rivonia, Sunninghill and Illovo have townhouse clusters. Apartment buildings and offices fill the node around Maude and Rivonia Road. Alexandra, close by, sees backyard rooms and shop extensions on tiny stands. Design is often handled by registered architects, with draughtspersons working under them for documentation. Many homeowners want 3D renders to show the committee or a bank, and Sandton's quiet streets are tightly governed by scheme rules on coverage and height.
