The quiet village of Memel in the Eastern
Free State is ideally situated for weekend
getaways. Location: Two and half hours
from Gauteng, a 30 minute drive to Newcastle
and four hours to Durban. Set between the
Drakensberg foothills and escarpment, in
rolling grasslands and the Seekoeivlei
RAMSAR Wetland Nature Reserve, the area is
popular with artists, birders and
celebrities.

Activities: Known for its excellent wetland,
grassland and escarpment birding (blue and
wattled cranes, blue korhaan, larks,
raptors, bald ibis, spurwing geese,
vultures, bush blackcap and rare white-
winged flufftail among others) rivaling
Wakkerstroom and Dullstroom in its diversity
of bird life. Its flora, mountain ranges and
wetlands are just as impressive. Hippo, bird
and game-spotting in the Seekoeivlei Reserve
are everyday occurrences. Spectacular 4X4
and scenic drives such as the picturesque
Normandien Pass with stunning views of the
Drakensberg and the edge of the escarpment.
Hiking, mountain biking, quad or off-road
biking - or just cycling or strolling around
the town – are well-known pursuits. Also
available in the area are golfing, horse
trails, star gazing, bass and trout fishing,
and many game farms. Add to this the local
meat which is superior! The plot is ideal
for artists, birders, nature lovers or
families in need of a break, offering peace,
tranquility and healthy fresh air.

The property is well-located in a good and
established part of the village where the
plots are larger. Conveniently close to the
main street services, shops, the hotel and
pub. The outbuildings are built on the
furthest edge of the stand from the road,
leaving most of the property free for
development. Fronted by a road, a lane
passes directly behind the plot supplying
municipal services. The existing building is
currently suitable for storage purposes and
could be used as an outbuilding for a future
residential development. Safe and quiet
area. The stand is well suited for
development into a weekend retreat or
retirement home.

Price negotiable. All reasonable offers will be considered.
