The plot sizes will be 100 square meters (10.2 X 9.5). The plot sizes will be 100 square meters (10.2 X 9.5). The 14 houses that fit onto the site will be attached backwards to each other and will share a side and back wall to minimize the costs of development. With the symmetric layout of the houses water and electricity lines are easy and cost effective to install.

With the symmetric layout of the houses water and electricity lines are easy and cost effective to install. The accessibility to the houses is spacious and trouble free with enough parking and driving area to gain access to houses on either side of the development from the main entrance on the left hand side. The accessibility to the houses is spacious and trouble free with enough parking and driving area to gain access to houses on either side of the development from the main entrance on the left hand side. Each home will have an external toiletry facility on the premises, this allows for a greater living area inside the house and alleviates the hassle of a bathroom in the house.
