FOR BALE BY PRIVATE CONTRACT. THAT well-known Farm on the Opaki, known as Sedgeley, the property of Henry Bannister Esq, situated close to the Borough of Masterton, about 1 J miles from the proposed railway station. The Property consists of about 1200 acres of rich agricultural land, perfectly level, enc'oted with a substantial ring fence, and subdivided into twelve paddocks convenient for breeding thoroughbred stock, which the present Proprietor has been successfully engaged in for tbe last three yeats. 700 acres have been ploughed and hud dowß in English grass ; 100 acres are now under crop, and the remainder is plentifully covered with EDglish and native grasses. There is a frontage of 2£ miles to a chain road, leading from Masterton to Upper Opaki, commencing at the new bridge lately thrown over the .Waipoua River, which forms the southern boundary of the Property. The fencing, of which there is more than 13 miles, is all oew and iv good repair. The buildings consist ot a 12-roomed dwslltog house, dairy, washhouse, bathroom, carpenter's shop, stockyards, 7-stalled stable, coach-house, loose boxes, granary, chaff-house, cart sheds, pigsty es, and all other conveniences required tor iarm purposes. There are, also, ttfo 4-roomed cottages for farm, servants, and a6-stalled stable with men's room attached, situated on different parts of the property ior convenience. The shearing shed is conveniently situated on the banks of the Waipoua River, furnished with all modem improvements, and capable of tccommodating twelve shearersAdjoining it are the necessary yards, dip, tanks, shearers' kitchen, dining and bedrooms. The whole of the above buidings are new, - having been erected within the last three years. The grounds have been laid off at considerable expense, several hundreds of 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. ¦ Sedgeley is well adapted ior cutting up into a township, or into email farms, as it could be done without interfering with existing fences. It is healthily, pleasantly, and picturesquely situated, being about 70ft above the level of Masterton, and overlooking that township. The live aud dead stock (other than the thoroughbred sheep) can be taken at a valuation at the option of the purchaser. The role and only reason for selling the above splendid property is the ill health of the proprietor, and .the present opportunity for securing the most valuable stud firm ia the district should sot be neglected. For full particulars and terms apply to J. M. GIRDLEBTONJS, Auctioneer and Commission Agent, Masterton. ¦ /~VN BALE BY THE UNDERSIGNED.
