This lovely residence and its surrounding grounds overlook, one of the most delightful sea views in tho world. Nothing is more entrancing to a lover of Nature than the combination of moun- ' tain, hill, and valley, with the glory of the sea. ".In thia spot it is in special, grandeur. The residence stands upon a natural plateau, surrounded with a wealth of native forest and shrubs, which , literally embosom it in beauty. "In front ." stretches out the waters of Port Nichol!l son, gradually narrowing till they reach |. the entrance to- tho harbour, and then lose themselves in th& great Strait whioh divides the two Islands*. The snow-clad t mountain ranges of tho South Island, the t gliding to and fro 'of the vast fleet of shipping which day - and night pass the . portals of Pericarrow, the budding sub- , urbs on the opposite, side of the harbour, i tho indescribaie beauty of the sea and j sky, altogether present a never-ending B picture that satisfies and soothes the soul . of the most prosaic. It is in a very special sense the ideal home of a great writer or a weary statesman. The residence js just out of the hands * of the builders, the contract having been i completed sinco the death of Mr. Ellison. - It is a -most artistio creation — a gombinas tion in one story of the bungalow and the - Italian styles of architecture; bay "winB dows, tower, jleep verandahs 10ft wide, ■ and highly-finished decorations being some of the leading features. The diningroom is 20ft x 13ft, separated by folding doors " from the drawingfoom (17ftx 14ft), There " are two halls, the main hall being 13ft x , 13ft. The principal bedroom is 17ft x 13ft. The kitchen, scullery, out-offices, etc., are * of the most complete character. f A most pure and delightful stream of - water comes from the hills at the back of - the property, a reservoir attached to it affording an unlimited supply for the use of the household. 11 The great extent of land (34 acres) gives ' a breadth, unity, and completeness to the property which makes it altogether exceptional. The Harbour Board have just decided to „ erect a wharf at Muritai, 240 ft long with .' a .width of 30ft. This will .not s only add j to the comfort and convenience of the g re-sidents, but will materially increase- the 0 value of all property in this progressive B suburb.
