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

What to know locally in Vereeniging
Riverside owners in Three Rivers and Peacehaven favour double storey houses with large stoeps and braai areas facing the water. In Arcon Park, a typical job is a granny flat added to a 1970s house for a parent. For smallholdings in Henley on Klip, a farmhouse-style three or four bedroom plan with a staff cottage is the usual brief.
Homes and buildings in Vereeniging
Vereeniging is the oldest town on this stretch of the Vaal, with Edwardian and Art Deco buildings around the CBD and Peace Treaty history that attracts heritage interest. Duncanville, Arcon Park and Three Rivers hold older family homes and riverside guest houses, Henley on Klip and Walkerville have smallholdings, and Sharpeville and Boipatong have many extended township houses. Owners usually ask for river-view additions, guest house conversions and as-built plans before a sale or a bond, drawn by local draughtspersons and a handful of small architectural offices that know the old town.
Typical rondavel house plans requests in the area come from:
- Families building a new house: a thatched round room as a lounge, studio or main bedroom added to the house
- Shops, offices and restaurants: guest rondavels with en-suites and decks for a lodge, guest farm or tea garden
- 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
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a family homestead of several huts for sleeping, cooking and storing, built in phases
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: approved drawings for a rondavel on a farm or smallholding being sold, so the bank accepts it
- Churches, schools and crèches: a round meeting room or crèche hut with good ventilation and a fire-safe roof

Expect drawn to SANS 10400, thatch rules checked as the baseline, and keep in mind: vaal flood lines and some mining subsidence: ask for a survey and a soil report.
What to include in your request

- Thatch, sheeting or tile roof
