ARCHITECTURE

The aesthetics of the Highland Gate architecture are an interpretation of the look that has become synonymous with Dullstroom, with extensive use of natural material such as wood and stone. Defined architectural elements have been used to distinguish between the three village types in the estate, i.e., ‘Golf’, ‘Fishing’ or ‘Country’, to create a sense of identity in each village, while maintaining the architectural style of the estate as a whole.

HOUSE DESIGN CHOICE

There are six standard house designs for Highland Gate, and these are:

Cabin – single storey, two bedrooms
Cottage – single storey, two bedrooms, expanded living area
Bungalow – single storey, three bedrooms
Chalet – double storey, four bedrooms
Manor – double storey, five bedrooms
Lodge – double storey, five bedrooms, expanded living area.

Each of the designs incorporates the basic features we believe are essential elements of a second home in the Dullstroom:

• All bedrooms are en-suite, with bathrooms incorporating both a shower and bath.
• Where possible, living areas in all houses are double volume and integrated to create a free flow of space required in a second home environment.
• All bedrooms and living rooms are provided with fireplaces.
• Finishes, fittings and standard appliances are of a high quality.
• Generous storage space is provided.
• Large patio areas are incorporated in each design, with stackable folding doors to allow the free flow of space between the interior and exterior of the home.
• Windows and patio doors are sized to take advantage of the vistas that will be available from most stands.
• Sculleries and pantries separate from the kitchen areas are provided in all homes to allow for the integration of food preparation activities into the living areas.

In defining each of the standard house designs, Gate Developments has attempted to incorporate both the Model T Ford (any colour provided it’s black) and the Bentley (nothing is standard) approach. While the design and specification of each of the standard house designs is completely uniform, any interior aspect of any design can be changed, subject to the stand owner being willing to accept the variation costs. In addition, if none of the standard designs are acceptable, stand owners may elect to have a house uniquely designed to meet their specific requirements.

ADDITIONAL OPTIONS

When selecting a specific house design, the landowner can also select following additional extra-cost options: splash pool, gas fires, under-floor heating, solarium, gas cooker, enclosed garages, additional carports or garages.
