TMTACDONALD, "WILSON AND CO. ■^"■~ are favoured with instructions from tho Proprietors of the STANDEN ESTATE to soil by Public Auction as above— THE WHOLE OF THE WELLKNOWN STANDEN ESTATE, comprising in all 202 BUILDING SECTIONS of tho Finest Character. .The STANDEN ESTATE is one of tho original selections in tho Suburb of Karon, and consists of sixty acres in one block. Cleared of timber and graesed in the early days, it has been for sotno fifty years one of tho finest dairy farm 3 adjacent to tho City .of Wellington. The march of progress, the increase of settlement, the x developmont of thocity and its suburbs, and tho necessity of finding homes for the i thousands of new people who are flocking into Wellington, have brought about an imperative demand for its subdiTJsion and sale. Tha family reatoas which havo locked the Estate up for half a> century haye < now been adjusted, and the general public, for tho jrst time in that long period, havo the opportunity of selecting a portion, of this most picturesque and beaui tiful Estate. The Standen Estate fronts tho Main Karori-road, and is bounded by tho wellknown properly of the Hon. Oh as. J. Johnston, M.L.C. It also overlooks tho celebrated Wilton Bush, on» of the beautyspots recently purchased by the Government at- the instance of the Sconery Preservation Society. The now Electrical Tramway, now in course of construction between tho City and Karori, and which will be completed in the month of January next, will havo its terminus immediately in front of tho Standen Estate, opposite Sfcnnden-streot and Johnston-street. Tho importance of this fact, and tho great value 'or the front sections for business purposes, needs no comment. _ -The Standen Estato has been subdivided into sections ranging in area, from oneeighth of am aero upwards. Careful examination will show that each section is admirably adapted for the erection of villa residences ot tho boat character, and that they command panoramic views o'er hill and vnlo that are not to bo surpassed in the wholo provincial district. To those newcomers who know comparatively, lit tie. of tho city and Euborbi, but who are seeking a site for a home, it may bo well to say that the suburb of Karori was ono of tho earliest settlements outside the City of Wcllicgon. .In consequence of the • high* land intervening between tho City and Karori. 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 havo Opened out Karori, and Within four months th& new electrical lines will revolutionise its value. Situated five hundred feet above tea-level, yet sheltered from tho southern breezes, tho air of Karori is delightfully warm, mild, and soft, yet bracing. The medical profession knows its value, al|ke, to thq r ah;ilij and tho adult. 'Family men to whom health and cheapness of living are first considerations, should visit the Standen Estate with their wives and children on Saturday or Sunday. _ They will return delighted, and determined, to create a new home there. To those who merely desire a speculative investment the Standen Estate should strongly appeal. The influx of population . through the opening of the 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. The term* of sale have 'Been fixed on the following liberal basis: — Deposit io per cent In six months 10 per cent. In twelve months 10 per cent. BALANCE of SEVENTY PER CENT OAN REMAIN UNPAID FOR FIVE YEARS, but each Purchaser has tho right to pay off at any time the whole or any portion" of his purchaso money, and interest coascs on any amounts so . paid.
