Center your images on origo and "transform" them to the desired position. I believe you want something like this;

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
 <g transform="translate(250,200)">
   <rect x="-50" y="-50" height="100" width="100"
     style="stroke:#FF0000; fill: #9C4100">

    <animateTransform
        attributeName="transform"
        begin="0s"
        dur="20s"
        type="rotate"
        from="0"
        to="360"
        repeatCount="1" 
    />
   <animateTransform attributeName="transform"
    type="scale" from="1" to="2" 
    additive="sum" begin="0" dur="20s" fill="freeze"/>
  </rect>
  <circle id="pointA" cx="0" cy="0" r="48" />
</g>
</svg>
