This lovely residence and its surrounding grounds overlook one of the most delightful sea view 3in tho world. Nothing is more entrancing to a lover of Nature than the combination of mountain, hill, and valley, with tho glory of tho sea. In this spot it is in special grandeur. Tho rosidence stands upon a natural plateau, surrounded with a wealth of native forest and shrubs, which literally embosom it in beauty. In front stretches out tho waters of Port Nichol«s'on, gradually narrowing till they reach tho entrance to tho harbour, and then lose themselves in the great Strait which divides the two Island?. Tho snow-clad mountain ranges of tho South Ifcland, the gliding to, and fro of the vast fleet of shipping which' day and night pass tho portals of Pencarrow, Uie budding suburbs on the opposite side of the harbour, tho indescribale beauty of the sea and sky, altogether present a never-ending picture that satisfies ami /soothes the soul of the most prosaic. It is iv a very special sense tho ideal home of a great writer or a weary statesman. The residence is just out of the hands of the builders, the contract having been completed sinco tho death of Mr. Ellison. It is a most artistic creation — a combination in ono story of tho bungalow and the Italian styles of architecture; bay windows, tow or, deep verandahs 10ft wide, and highly-finished decorations boing some of the leading features. Tho diningroom is 20ft x 13ft, separated by folding doors from tho drawingroom (17ft x 14ft). There aro two halls, the main hall being 13ft x 13ft. The principal bedroom is 17ft x 13ft. The kitchen, scullery, out-ofiices, etc., are of the most complete character. A most pure and delightful stream of water comes from tho hills at the back of tho property, a reservoir attached to it affording an unlimited supply for tho use of tho household. , » Tho great extent of land (34 acres) gives a breadth, unity, and completeness to the property which makes it altogether exceptional. The Harbour Board have ju3t decided to erect a wharf at Muritai, 240 ft long with a width of 30ft. This will not only add to the comfort and convenience of the n-eidenls, but will materially increase the value of &\b property in this progressive suburb. While the property is for absolute sale, arrangements can be mado, if required, for a considerable proportion of tho purchase money to be obtained on mortgage. The property is in charge of a caretaker, and tickots to inspect it can be obtained on application to the Auctioneers, who will, if required, detail a member of tho staff to accompany any intending purchaser, so that a full inspection can bo made. For further details, conditions of sale, title, etc., apply to tho PUBLIC TRUSTEE, Or to the AUCTIONEERS. FURNITURE ON EASY TERMS. WF.
