Tho STANDEN ESTATE is ono of the original soioctionsin tho Suburb of Knxon, tend consists of rixty acres in ono block. Cleared of timber and greeted in the early days, it has been for eomo fifty years "one of tho finest dairy, farms adjacent to tho City of Wcllin_ton. Tho march cf progreet, the incremo of settlement, the development of the city and its suburb*, and tha necessity of finding homes for the thousands ot new people who aro flocking into Wellington, haxtf brought about {-n imperative dVm*Kd for its subdivision and salo. Ths ramily reasons which have locked tho E»*»to up for half o century havo now been adjusted, and the general pablit, for the first timo in that .long perrod, haro the opportunity of tolccting a portion, of this most picturesque aud beautiful Ettste. > >Thß Staaden Estato fronts the Main Karori-road, nnd is bounded by tho wellknown property of tho Hon. Chas. J. Johnston, M.L.C. It also overlooks tho celebrated Wilton Bush, one of the besuty spots recently purchased by tho Government at tho initauca oi tho Scenery Preservation Society The new Electrical- Tramway, now- -in courEe of construction^, between tho City and Karori, and which 'will bo completed in the month of January nest, will havo its terminus immediately in front of tho Standen Estato, opposite Standon-strest and Johnston-street. Tho importance of this fact, and tho great value of the front tections for business purposes, needs no comment. The Standen Estate hrs- been subdivided into sections ranging iv area from oneeigfeth of an • aero upwards. Careful examination will rhow that each section is admirabiy adapted for tho erection of villa residences ot tho best chsracter, 'and (that they command panoramic views o'er hill and valo thst aro not to be surpassed in the whole provincial district; To those newcomers . who know comparatively little -of' tho city and suburbs, but who . aro seeking a sito for. a Jiome, it may be well to sky that the suburb of Karori was ono- of. tho earliest settlements outside tho City of Wellingon. In consequenco of the 'high land intervening between the City and Karon it took many years to provide good roads, »nd this fact kept Karori in the background. All this is now changed. Cable and electric tramway serviqas have opened out Karori, and within four months tho now electrical lines will rovolutionito its value. . Situated five hundred feet abovo sea-lovel, yet shelterled from the southern breezes, tho air of Karori is delightfully warm, mild, and soft, yet bracing. Tho medical profession knows its valuo alike to tho child and the adult. Family_ men to whom health and cheapness of living are first considerations, should visit the Standen Estato with their wives and children on Saturday or Sunday. _ They will return delighted, and determined to create a new home there. To thoeo who merely desiro a speculative- investment the Standen Estato should ■ strongly appeal. The influx of population . through tho" "opening "of Ttho new tramway will enormously increase values, and overy purchaser of £200 worth of land, on which ho has only paid $40, will, within six months, find that he can sell 6ut at a profit of a hundred per cent, on his cash outlay.
