The main nutec houses page explains the options, the rules and the costs in more detail.
Building prefab in Sandton
Large gardens in Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside give Sandton its own kind of prefab request: a pool house, a timber garden office, a staff room or a granny flat for a parent, finished well enough to sit beside an expensive house and passed through the council plan process. Complexes in Sunninghill, Lonehill and Rivonia have less space and stricter body corporate rules, so a small wendy or a storeroom is often all that is allowed. Alexandra, beside the Jukskei River, is a different picture, with backyard rooms on tiny stands and narrow lanes. Delivery comes from Wynberg, Marlboro and Kew. Old oaks and jacarandas shade many plots, which helps in summer but drops branches in storms, and hail and lightning are common.
Who asks for nutec houses around Sandton, most often first:
- Homeowners: a two or three bedroom fibre cement home on your stand, quicker than brick
- Shops, offices and small businesses: a nutec shop, clinic room or salon on a business stand
- Backyard landlords and families: insulated nutec rental rooms in the backyard, each with a shower and toilet
- Schools and creches: a nutec office, store or staff room added on the school grounds
