Mahikeng notes on house designs
A three bedroom face-brick house with a covered stoep and a carport is the usual request across Mmabatho and Danville, often sized to suit a bank bond on a government salary. In Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng, families more often start with a two bedroom core house and ask for a layout that lets a third room and a kitchen extension follow later. Granny flats at the back of larger Golfview stands are growing.
Homes and buildings in Mahikeng
Mahikeng has two halves that were planned apart: the old railway town of Mafikeng, with its Carrington Road shops, Golfview and Riviera Park houses and Siege-era buildings, and Mmabatho, laid out in the 1980s around the Provincial Government complex. Most requests come from civil servants building in Mmabatho Unit 9 or Danville, owners adding rooms to Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng houses, and churches and crèches on bigger stands. The ground is flat, hot and dry, with black clay in places, so walls and slabs need an engineer's eye. Draughtspersons work from Mmabatho and Mafikeng offices and quote for the whole North West.
