There is a frontage of 2J 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.

Adjoining 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 for 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 leyel of Masterton, aud overlooking that township. The live and dead stock (other than the thoroughbred sheep) can be taken at a valuation at the option ot the purchaserThe sole and only reason for selling the above splendid property is the ill health of the proprietor, aud tbe present opportunity for securing the most valuable stud farm in the district should not be neglected.
