CONNELL & RIDINGS Unreserved Sale of Valuable Country and Town Property. CONNELL & RIDINGS Have received instructions from the Proprietor to offer for Sale, at their Mart, Queen Street, TO-MORROW, August 20 th, at 12 o'clock— the following very valuable allotments, viz.:— AN Allotment in the centre of Commercial Bay, with the outside Water Frontage, being a portion of Allotment No. 5, of Sec. No. 2, in the Town of Auckland, bounded on the North by Custom-house Street, one hundred links ; on the East by a line bearing nearly south, one hundred and ten links; on the South by part of Allotment No 4 of the said Section No. 2, one hundred links; and "on the West by other part of the said Allotment No. 5, one hundred and ten links. The Auctioneers would particularly call the .attention of Merchants and Capitalists to the position of this property, which must immediately become available, and beyond all comparison the most valuable in the City of Auckland, commanding, as it does, such a large space of water frontage in the centre of the principal landing place. Suc.h positions on the wharfs at Sydney, have changed hands, not long ago, at from £120 to £150 per foot ; and there is every reason to believe, from the present prospects of the rising city of Auckland, that all the water frontage of Commercial Bay will, in course of a very few years, be equally valuable. The next allotment is one containing Two Roods and Twenty-four Perches, situated in front of the residence lately occupied by Sir George Grey, at the top of Queen Street, and has a frontage to that street of 77 ft. It will be admitted, on inspection, to be one of the pleasantest positions in the township of Auckland for a private residence. The view of Town and Harbour cannot be obscured by other buildings, as it occupies the crown of the hill. It is bounded at the real* by a never failing stream of spring water, and is within eight minutes walk of the New Wharf in Commercial Bay. Also Two Allotments in Freeman's Bay, affording most eligible sites for Private residences, — one contains Thirty-eight Perches, and the other One Rood & Three Perches Both of these allotments have street frontages, command ,a fine view of the Bay, and have an abundant supply of good water. After which will be offered a Country Farm in the populous and rapidly improving district of Papakura, containing One Hundred and Eighty one Acres of the finest land in that locality. It is bounded on the North by a wood 3650 links ; on the East by a road 4850 links; on the South by the centre of the Papakura river j and On the West by a road 5600 links. The soil is well adapted either for wheat or grass. The adjoining farm is under cultivation, and one boundary is already fenced. There is an eligible site for a mill, with an abundant supply of water in the centre of the farm. Firewood may be obtained in any quantity at a trifling cost. The Auctioneers would direct the attention of Capitalists to these choice Properties, the sale of which will offer an excellent opportunity for safe and profitable investment. Plans and particulars at the Mart. Terms — 10 percent deposit; the remainder by Bills at 6 and 12 months at 10 per cent interest.
