Editing Mjejane Lifestyle bucks the property trend

Achieving R27 million in sales in only 1 week, Mjejane Lifestyle has undoubtedly defied current property trends, proving that if an offering is unique and of a superior quality it will inevitably be in great demand, regardless of economic conditions.

Mjejane Game Reserve, near Malelane, recently announced the launch of the final phase of the Riverview stands; ultimately stimulating an influx of interested buyers attentive to the fact that they will not get another opportunity to own such exclusive property in the foreseeable future. Called Kingsland, the final phase of the development is situated on the western side of Mjejane Game Reserve and entails the release of the prime riverfront component of the reserve, offering uninterrupted views of the Crocodile River and theworld renowned Kruger National Park.

Stefan Botha, Director of Rainmaker Marketing, the official marketing company for Mjejane, explains, "To have achieved such remarkable sales in such a short space of time is relatively unheard of in this sector of the property market, and proves the calibre and success of this project".

He continues, "We are involved in a number of leisure developments and our experience confirms that, in the current economic climate, no development can succeed without having a unique facet. The unbelievable response to our launch of the final Riverview stands on Mjejane Game Reserve is testimony to the market's grasp of how unique it is to have freehold ownership within the only residential estate in Southern Africa that is incorporated into the Kruger National Park".

Only 4 hours' drive from Gauteng and less than 60 minutes from Nelspruit's Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport, Mjejane Lifestyle is situated on the banks of the Crocodile River and is regarded as South Africa's premier reserve. Positioned on the Kruger's southern boundary between the Malelane and Crocodile Bridge gates, the reserve boasts 10km's of spectacular river frontage. An exclusive concession has been granted to Mjejane Game Reserve by South African National Parks (SANPARKS), allowing Mjejane owners direct access to a private low-level bridge across the Crocodile River, which gives them access to the Kruger's 7900km road network.

The unprecedented success of the first phase of the development, which includes Riverview and Bushlands stands, has ultimately stimulated the launch of the last remaining stands within Mjejane Game Reserve. To date 25 privately owned lodges have been completed, and 15 further lodges are currently under construction.

Mjejane Game Reserve represents the last significant tract of pristine indigenous and buyers into the freehold ownership of river and bush stands are investing in the memorable wonders of natures with the abundance that this part of Africa has to offer.

"Traditionally most of the investors have come from the Gauteng area based on the proximity to Mjejane. During this sales boom, it has been very interesting to note that we have seen a large increase in international leads, resulting in a buyer from America visiting the site and purchasing two plots last week," confirms Botha.

He ends, "Residential lifestyle estates are a dime a dozen in the bushveld. The majority bask as close as possible to the great, glowing heart that is the Kruger National Park, but Mjejane Game Reserve is the only one that has been drawn under its very wing. It is this distinctive quality that gives Mjejane Lifestyle its edge and has it achieving record sales, and essentially growing from strength-to-strength".
