ProposalDescription: 

Proposed New Dwelling on portion 37 of erf 565, 177 Marine Drive, Bluff, Durban. Drawing Number: (01)01. A total demolition of the dilapidated existing main house and granny flat is proposed. New proposed main house, with a more spacious and modern design to capture the amazing ocean views as per client's specifications. Proposed new boundary walls and new garage with accompanying granny flat. This application is taking place within Kwa-Zulu Natal.

Expanded_Motivation: 

We at DesignZA propose demolishing the existing dwelling due to the dilapidated condition of the current structures and therefore does not suite the new owner's requirements. The flow of the house is mismatched, due to the illegal additions and alterations made to the structure without any approved plans. These can be noticed within areas of the dwelling such as the entrance porch, kitchen extension, living area, etc. Due to the flood incidents that took place in 2022, this has accelerated the severe erosion, significant deformation and displacement of the site and surrounding structures. The foundations are insufficient, rendering this building a safety risk. The current dwelling does not capitalize on the amazing views offered which was the owner's motivation for purchasing the property, however the new proposed design will provide exactly that.
