TV/TACDONALD, "wiLSON AND CO. ■"•■' aro fa-voured with instructions from tho Proprietors of the STANDEN ESTATE to sell by Public Auction as above — THE WHOLE OF THE WELLKNOWN STANDEN ESTATE, comprising in all 202 BUDLDING SECTIONS of tho Finest Character.
The STANDEN ESTATE is one of the original selections in tho Suburb of Karori, and consists of eixty ceres in one block. Cleared of timber and grassed in tho early daye, it has been for some fifty years one of tho finest dairy farms adjacent to the City of Wellington. Tho march <?£ progress, tho increase of settlement, tho development of tho city and its suburbs, and tho nflOoseity of finding homes for tho thousands of new people who are flocking into Wellington, have brought about an imperativercemand for its subdivision and 6»lc. Tho family reasons which have locked the Estato up for half ai century have now been adjusted, and the general public, for the first time in that long period, have the opportunity of selecting a portion of this mort picturesque and beautiful Estate. The Standen Estate fronts tho Main Karori-rcad, and 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 beauty spots recently purchased by tha Government at the instance of the Scenery Preservation Society. The new Electrical Tramway, now in courEe of construction between the City and Karori, and which will bo completed in the month -of January next, will have its terminus , immediately in front of the Standen Estate, opposite Standen-rtreet and Johnston-street. The importance of this fact, and the great value of the front sections for business purposes, needs no comment. The Standen Estate has been subdivided into sections ranging in area from oneeighth of an , acre upwards. Careful examination will .chow that each section is admirably adapted .for the erection of villa residences of the best character, and that they command panoramic views o'er hill and vale that are not to be surpassed in the whole provincial district. To those newcomers who know comparatively little of tho city and suburbs, but who are seeking a site for a home, it may be well •to say that the suburb of Karori was ono of the earliest settlements outsido tho City of Wollingon. In consequence of the 'high land intervening between tho City and Katori it took many years to provide good roads, and this fact kept Karori in the background. All this is now changed. Cable and electric tramway services have opened out Karori, and within, four months the new electrical lines will revolutionise its valuo. Situated five hundred feet abovo sea-level, yet sheltered from tbo southern breezes, the air of Karori is , delightfully warm, mild, and soft, yet bracing. Tho medical profession knows its value aliko to tho child and the adult. Family men to whom health and cheapness of living am first considerations, should visit tho Standen Estato with their wives and children on Saturday or Sunday. They will' return delighted, and detormined to create a new homo there \ To those who merely desire a speculative investment the Standen Estate should strongly appeal. Tho influx of population through the opening of tho new tramway will enormously increase values, and every purchaser of £200 worth of land, on which he has only paid £40, will, within six months, find that he can sell out at a profit of a hundred per cent, on his cash outlay. Tho term's of sale have Been fixed on the following liberal basis; — Deposit 10 per cont In six months 10 per cent' In twelve months 10 per cent. BALANCE of SEVENTY PER CENT. CAN REMAIN UNPAID FOR FIVE YEARS, but each Purchaser has the right to pay off at any time tho whole or any portion of his purchase money, and interest ceases on any amounts so paid. Interest on unpaid purchaso money 5 per cont. per annum. Lithographic plans and fuller dotails can be obtained at tho Auctioneer's Offices, and Conditions of Salo may bo inspected at the office of J. M'Grath, Esq., Solicitor, Lambton-quay.
