Poynton, Esq., Public Trustee of the Colony, to sell by public auction, ON THURSDAY, Bth DAY OF DECEMBER, 1904, At 2.30 o'clock p.m., IN THE EXCHANGE LAND MART, No. 84, Lambton-quay, Wellington, THAT MOST CHARMING AND BEAUTIFUL SEASIDE FAMILY RESIDENCE, with THIRTYFOUR ACRES OF LAND, situated in the Seaside Suburb of MURITAI, well known as the property of the late Mr. Thomas R. Ellison. _ This lovoly residence aiid its surrounding grounds overlook one of the most delightful sea views in the world. Nothing is more entrancing to a lover of Naturo than the combination of mountain, hill, and valley, with the glory of the sea. In this 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 tho waters of Port Nicholson, gradually narrowing till they roach tho entrance to tho harbour, and then lose thomselves in the great Strait which divides the two Islandp. The snow-clad mountain ranges of tho South Island, the gliding to and fro of the vast fleet of shipping which day and night pass the portals of Pencarrow, the budding suburbs on the opposite side of the harbour, the indescribale beauty of tho sea and sky, altogether present a never-ending picture that satisfies and' soothes the soul of the most prosaic. It is in a very special sense the ideal homo of a great writer or a weary statesman. The residence is just out of the hands of the builders, tho contract having been completed since the death of Mr. Ellison. It is a most artistic creation—a combination in one story of the bungalow and the Italian stylos of architecture ; bay windows, tower, deep 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 drawingroom (17ft x 14ft). There are two halls, the main hall being -13ft x 13ft. The principal bedroom is 17ft x 13ft. Tho kitchen, scullery, out-offices, etc., are of the most complete character. 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. 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 only add to the comfort and convenience of the residents, but will materially increase the value of all property in this progressive' suburb. While the property is for absolute sale, arrangements can be made, if required, for a considerable proportion of the purchase money to be obtained on mortgage. The property is in charge of a caretaker, and tickets 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 be made. For furthor details, conditions of sale, j title, etc., apply to tho PUBLIC TRUSTEE, Or to the AUCTIONEERS. CORNER BUILDING SF.CTIONS, PETONE, PETONE.
