WELCOME TO KOLOBE
After a two-year search throughout the Waterberg region for the perfect property, Rietspruit was acquired in 2006. Kolobe Retirement Village & Wildlife Estate is situated on a 160-hectare lifestyle game farm, just 6 kilometers outside Modimolle (formerly known as Nylstroom), in the heart of the Waterberg mountains in Limpopo.
As passionate nature lovers, we treat every tree, shrub, insect, and animal with respect, recognizing that they were here first, and we are the intruders. This perspective guided the development of Kolobe Retirement Village & Wildlife Estate. We believe in enjoying the remainder of our lives in affordable safety and good neighborliness.
To provide privacy, and tranquility, and to preserve the natural environment, the total number of housing units was reduced from the original 100 to just 60. Each housing unit is equipped with a solar electricity system, a solar geyser backed up by an LP gas geyser, a gas stove, and LED lighting. Our homes feature double garages, while the cottages come with single garages. Each unit enjoys its own space, privacy, and an unobstructed view of the Waterberg bush or mountains.
Kolobe Retirement Village is completely independent of all municipal services and takes pride in being a green and eco-friendly development. Our goal is to create services tailored to the needs of our residents while simultaneously implementing safety measures that would not be financially feasible for individuals.
Feel the energy and excitement? Kolobe Retirement Village is here to bring joy, comfort, and a vibrant community to your retirement years!
