Rondavel House Plans in Randburg

Draughtspersons around Randburg 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.

Randburg notes on house designs

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.

Typical rondavel house plans requests in the area come from:

  • Owners adding or changing rooms: joining a rondavel to an existing house with a covered passage and a matching roof
  • Families building a new house: a thatched round room as a lounge, studio or main bedroom added to the house
  • 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
  • Estate agents, sellers and landlords: approved drawings for a rondavel on a farm or smallholding being sold, so the bank accepts it
  • Developers and builders: a small holiday village of repeat rondavel units on a coastal or bushveld stand
  • Churches, schools and crèches: a round meeting room or crèche hut with good ventilation and a fire-safe roof

Local tips for Randburg

Most asked for in Randburg: alterations to 1960s houses, flats for tenants and townhouse subdivisions. Who draws them: draughtspersons in Ferndale and Linden, technologists near Northcliff and Fontainebleau. A useful tip: ask for the old approved plan from council records before drawing the extension.

Jobs range from single 10 m² huts to 100 m² clusters. Here, owners adding or changing rooms lead the requests, typically for joining a rondavel to an existing house with a covered passage and a matching roof. One local point to raise: rocky ridge and steep stands at Northcliff: expect retaining walls and engineer input.

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
