Rondavel House Plans in Centurion
Draughtspersons around Centurion draw rondavels and hexagonal huts for homesteads, guest lodges and holiday farms across Gauteng. Tell them whether the stand is in a town, on a farm or under a traditional authority, and how far the hut will be from the boundary, because thatch and fire rules depend on it.
The main rondavel house plans page explains the drawings, the standards and the costs in more detail.
What to know locally in Centurion
A Centurion family usually wants three or four bedrooms, a double garage and a covered patio facing the garden, often on a stand under 600 square metres inside an estate. That pushes designs up to two storeys, with a bedroom wing above and living areas below. In Olievenhoutbosch and Rooihuiskraal, owners add a bedroom or two rooms to the back of a small house, and the stand's building lines set the limits.
Homes and buildings in Centurion
Centurion lies between Johannesburg and Pretoria, and its housing is dominated by estates and sectional title complexes. Heritage Hill, Irene Farm Villages, Midstream and Zwartkop have design guidelines and an aesthetics committee, so plans often go to the estate before the municipality. Older Lyttelton Manor, Eldoraigne and Wierda Park have family homes on 800 to 1,000 square metre stands, and Olievenhoutbosch and Laudium see extensions and backyard rooms. Dolomite underlies large parts of Centurion, so a geotechnical report is often needed in some areas. Buyers usually want double storey homes with a patio, and plans come from local draughtspersons, technologists and architects.
The requests we see from Centurion usually come from:
- Families building a new house: a thatched round room as a lounge, studio or main bedroom added to the house
- Developers and builders: a small holiday village of repeat rondavel units on a coastal or bushveld stand
- Owners adding or changing rooms: joining a rondavel to an existing house with a covered passage and a matching roof
- Rental and granny flat investors: rental rondavels for tourists, drawn to the zoning and the fire rules for thatch
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: approved drawings for a rondavel on a farm or smallholding being sold, so the bank accepts it
- Shops, offices and restaurants: guest rondavels with en-suites and decks for a lodge, guest farm or tea garden
- Churches, schools and crèches: a round meeting room or crèche hut with good ventilation and a fire-safe roof
