Stellenbosch drawing work includes measured drawings of old houses before restoration, floor plans of student-let properties for listings and municipal records, and 3D renders to win approval from estate committees.

Extension drawings in Cloetesville and Idas Valley often show backyard rooms joined to existing houses.
Homes and buildings in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university town built around oak-lined streets, and planning rules carry weight here. The historic core around Dorp Street is a heritage area, where owners of older houses need approval before altering walls, roofs and windows. Newer suburbs like Die Boord, Uniepark and Paradyskloof are full of student lets and family homes being extended. Estates around Devon Valley, Welgevonden and Jonkershoek have design committees. In Kayamandi, Cloetesville and Idas Valley, backyard rooms and extensions are common. Plans go to the Stellenbosch Local Municipality, where the heritage committee is often involved.

Local tips for Stellenbosch
Most asked for in Stellenbosch: student housing, heritage alterations and estate-approved homes. Who draws them: architects and technologists in the town centre, draughtspersons in Die Boord. A useful tip: ask whether your street falls in the historic core and needs heritage comment.
Around Stellenbosch the largest group asking is rental and granny flat investors, which usually means a neat plan of a rental room or flat to compare layouts and brief a contractor. Expect scaled, dimensioned, PDF and CAD files as the baseline, and keep in mind: granite and clay soils on slopes: ask about a geotechnical report.
