The Property consists of about 1200 ecres of rich agr.cuitunl land, perfectly level, enclosed with a substantial ring fence, and subdivided into twelve paddocks convenient for breeding thoroughbred stock, which the present Proprietor has been successfully engaged in lor the last three years. 700 acres have been ploughed and laid down in Engli h grass ; 100 acres are now under crop, and the remainder is plentifully covered with English and native grasses. There is a frontage of 2J miles to a chain road, leading from Masterton to Upper Cpaki, commencing at the new bridge lately thrown over the Waipoua River, which forms the southern boundary of the Property The fencing, of which tht re is more than 13 miles, is all new and in good repair. The buildings consist of a 12-roomed dwelling house, dairy, washhouse, bathroom, carpenter's shop, stockyards, 7-stalled stable, coach-bouse, loose boxes, granary, chaff- house, cart sheds, pigstyes, and all other conveniences required for iarm purposes.

The shearing sbed is conveniently situated on the banks of the Waipoua River, furnished with all modern improvements, and capable of accommodating twelve shearers. Adjoining it are the necessary yards, dp, tanks, shearers' kitchen, dining and bedrooms. The whole of the above bindings are new, having been erected within the last three yf are The grounds have been laid off at considerable expense, several hundreds ot trees and shrubs having been planted with a view to ornamentation and shelter. There is a well stocked kitchen and flower garden, also greenhouse and croquet lawn. Sedgeloy is well adapted ior cutting up into a township, or into small farms, as it could be done without interfering with existing fences. It is healthily, pleasantly, and picturesquely situated, being about 70ft. above tbe level of Masterton, and overlookiog that township. The live and dead stock (other than the thoroughbred sheep) can be taken at a valuation at tbe option ot the purchaserThe sole and only reason for selling the above splendid property is tha ill health of the proprietor, and the present opportunity for seeming the most valuable stud farm ia the district should not be neglected.
