Rondavel House Plans in Klerksdorp
Draughtspersons around Klerksdorp draw rondavels and hexagonal huts for homesteads, guest lodges and holiday farms across North West.

House designs in Klerksdorp: local notes
Houses in Klerksdorp are typically three- and four-bedroom face-brick homes with a pool or braai area in the back yard, drawn for hot summers. In Flamwood and Doringkruin owners add double garages and a wing for guests. In Jouberton and Kanana, plans often begin as two or three rooms and grow. Where dolomite is present, the engineer may limit how services are laid and ask for a compact floor footprint.
Homes and buildings in Klerksdorp
Klerksdorp is one of the oldest towns in the Transvaal and a gold-mining centre on the Schoonspruit, with big old stands in the centre and newer suburbs spreading outward. Doringkruin, Flamwood, Wilkoppies and Meiringspark hold family houses that owners extend with extra bedrooms and entertainment areas. Jouberton, Alabama and Kanana grow with RDP houses and backyard rooms, and Stilfontein and Orkney have mine houses with their own history. Some buildings in the old town are old enough that heritage permission may be needed. Dolomite and old mine workings mean ground conditions need attention.
The requests we see from Klerksdorp usually come from:
- Families building a new house: a thatched round room as a lounge, studio or main bedroom added to the house
- Owners adding or changing rooms: joining a rondavel to an existing house with a covered passage and a matching roof
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: approved drawings for a rondavel on a farm or smallholding being sold, so the bank accepts it
- Rental and granny flat investors: rental rondavels for tourists, drawn to the zoning and the fire rules for thatch
- 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
- Developers and builders: a small holiday village of repeat rondavel units on a coastal or bushveld stand
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a family homestead of several huts for sleeping, cooking and storing, built in phases
Local tips for Klerksdorp
Most asked for in Klerksdorp: extensions to older face-brick houses, heritage checks, backyard rental rooms. Who draws them: draughtspersons in Klerksdorp and Orkney, engineers and surveyors in town. A useful tip: ask whether your stand needs a dolomite report before the engineer starts.
Jobs range from single 10 m² huts to 100 m² clusters. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for a thatched round room as a lounge, studio or main bedroom added to the house. One local point to raise: dolomite and old workings in places: ask for a stability report and engineer.
What to include in your request
- Round, six corner or eight corner
- Thatch, sheeting or tile roof
- How many huts and how they link up
- Distance to boundaries and other buildings
- Whether it is a home, a rental or a lodge unit
A rough idea of the rooms is enough: the brief on this page turns it into a block plan and a floor area.
