ITANT. £aICS iju Auction* POSTPONED SALE. r |MIE Sale of Captain Macdonald’s Pro- •*- perty at Howick, advertised for Sale by Mr. Hansard for yesterday, was unavoidably postponed till THURSDAY next, the 21st instant, when it will be offered by him at one o’clock. The conditions will be prepared by Saturday next, and remain at Air. Hansard’s rooms for inspection. Mr. H. believes that the conditions under which it will be offered will be far more advantageous to purchasers than had been before anticipated. SPLENDID PROPERTY FOR SALE BY AUCTION. MR. HANSARD Has been favoured with the instructions of Captain Macdonald to offer for Sale by Public Auction, on THURSDAY, the 21st instant, at 1 o’clock, at his Rooms, Shortland-street, A LL THAT ESTATE AT HOWICK known as his residence, and in his occupation. The LAND consists of 128 acres, 20 of which are substantially enclosed and laid down in Grass and Clover, and part of which reaches to the beach by the pier. The HOUSE, newly built, consists of— Drawing Room, 16 ft. by 20 ft. Dining Room, 16 ft. by 16 ft. Hall, 6 feet wide. With a large Verandah, 74 feet long and 8 feet wide, lined at the ends, and roof painted. Three large Bed Rooms and Dressing Room. Kitchen (with Brick Oven), Servants’ Room, Pantry, Store, and Servants’ Bed Room. A Four-stalled Stable (weather-boards planed and painted.)
Mr. Hansard feels it to be quite unnecessary to parade the excellencies of the situation, and the availabilities of this splendid property. As to the property itself, he will feel happy to accompany any contemplating purchaser, who may not be acquainted with it, to view it; those who already know the property could not be further assured by anything he could add in an advertisement. As to the situation, all can judge alike of the present advantages of it, and the early prospect of those advantages being increased tenfold by the completion of the Pier, the constant and regular traffic of the Steamer, and the completion of some Bridge (pile, pontoon, or suspension) across the Tamaki.
