This is an exceptional, well-developed cattle farm situated just to the south of Witvlei in the heart of Namibia's renowned cattle farming region. Spanning 7,248 hectares, this highly productive property offers outstanding grazing potential, excellent infrastructure, abundant water resources, and additional income-generating opportunities. Its strategic location along the main route connecting Windhoek and the Namibian coast to Johannesburg—the largest agricultural market to the east—provides excellent accessibility and significant commercial advantages. Approximately 70–80% of the farm has been professionally bush-cleared, significantly improving grazing conditions and increasing the property's carrying capacity. While the official stocking rate for the Witvlei area is approximately one
livestock unit (450 kg) per 10 hectares, the extensive bush clearing allows the farm to support substantially higher stocking rates under good management practices. The property has been thoughtfully subdivided into 16 internal grazing camps, allowing for efficient rotational grazing and sustainable veld management. The entire perimeter is secured with a 2.4-metre-high game-proof fence. Although primarily operated as a cattle farm, Freiheit Ost supports an abundance of free-roaming wildlife, including Eland, Hartebeest. Kudu, Oryx (Gemsbok), Springbok, Waterbuck, Warthog, Duiker and Steenbok. Cheetahs and the occasional leopard are known to visit the property, while jackals and caracals also occur naturally in the area. The farm boasts excellent, well-maintained infrastructure, including a modern three-bedroom main residence, second three-bedroom residence, garages, large storage shed, fully equipped meat-processing facility with the capacity to process up to 80 cattle per week, spacious cold rooms and four labour houses. An attractive and well-planned safari camp provides an additional income stream through tourism and hunting accommodation. The facilities include two luxury safari tents, each with its own private ablution facilities, two wooden cabins with adventurous outdoor ablution facilities, a fully equipped kitchen with an outdoor living and braai area providing comfortable accommodation for 10 to 12 adults. The camp is popular with travellers seeking overnight accommodation on either a self-catering or bed-and-breakfast basis and is also used to accommodate trophy hunters. The property offers reliable and abundant water infrastructure consisting of four boreholes, two equipped with solar pumps and two equipped with electric pumps. These strong boreholes provide good-quality water and have supplied reliable water continuously for more than 45 years (yield not officially recorded). The water table is approximately 25 metres below ground level. A large earth dam retains water throughout the year, while several smaller dams contribute to groundwater recharge. The Nossob River, an ephemeral river system, traverses the property and further enhances its natural appeal. Additional Features include a 750-metre airstrip suitable for light aircraft with a hanger large enough to accommodate a Cessna 310. Electricity supplied by the national grid, supplemented by a solar power system. The topography is predominantly flat, making farm operations practical and efficient. The farm is characterized by productive grazing veld with Camelthorn and Witgat (Shepherd's Tree) as the dominant trees and blinkaar grass (Stipagrostis uniplumis) and krulblaar grass (Schmidtia species) as the dominant grass species. Average annual rainfall ranges between 300 mm and 350 mm, supporting reliable grazing conditions for livestock production.
