What to know locally in Pretoria
Plans in Tshwane are submitted to the city's building development management, and the Pretoria town planning scheme sets coverage and height for each zoning. An old house in Arcadia, Sunnyside or Muckleneuk may need heritage approval for changes, so ask early whether yours is protected. In Mamelodi and Atteridgeville, plans for an extension on a township stand often need the title or proof of ownership first.
Homes and buildings in Pretoria
Pretoria has a different rhythm from Johannesburg: jacaranda streets, red-brick Victorian and Art Deco houses, and a ring of newer estates. Older suburbs such as Arcadia, Sunnyside, Brooklyn, Waterkloof and Muckleneuk hold buildings that may fall under heritage rules, while Hatfield and Sunnyside have student flats and rental blocks. To the east, Mooikloof and Faerie Glen are filling with modern double storey homes, and in the north Mamelodi, Soshanguve and Ga-Rankuwa see families extend their houses and add backyard rooms. Hills and rocky outcrops affect slopes, and the Apies River floods in places. Draughtspersons, technologists and architects across the city quote directly.
Typical floor plans requests in the area come from:
