House designs in Randburg: local notes

On the slopes of Northcliff and Fontainebleau, houses step down the hill with the garage at street level and bedrooms below, and the drawings must show cuts and retaining walls. In Bromhof and Randpark Ridge, families choose three- or four-bedroom designs with a braai area and a double garage. Older Ferndale owners ask for small flats or a granny flat to let for extra income.

Homes and buildings in Randburg

Randburg is a mid-sized, mostly established area north-west of the CBD, with leafy streets and a busy commercial centre around Republic Road. Ferndale, Blairgowrie, Linden and Northcliff have single-storey houses from the 1950s to 1980s on stands of around 1,000 square metres, many now extended, subdivided or replaced by townhouses. The rocky Northcliff ridge gives steep stands with views, and further out Bromhof and Strijdom Park have newer family homes. Retail and office owners along Jan Smuts Avenue need commercial plans. Renovators dominate here: adding a bedroom, enclosing a stoep or building a flat for a tenant. Plans come from nearby draughtspersons and technologists.
