In any locality an abundant supply of pure water is felt to bo an inestimable, if not an [indispensable treasure, bearing so directly, as it does, upon the health and comfort of tho household ; but in a district where such a boon is a novelty indeed, tho advantage of this grand qualification of a healthy homo, it may be stated with confidence, can hardly bo overrated. It remains to be pointed out that this complete property haß considerable frontage to the main road from Auckland to the Manukau and the West Coast, and on which, for tho distance, tho largest traffic in Now Zealand is now daily conducted. A lir.ilway Station will be close in tho vicinity. Omnibuses pass hourly to tho city on the ono hand, and to Onohunga on the other, affording overy facility to the residents in the neighbourhood whether for business or pleasure, relioving tho locality of the sameness and oppressive sense of loneliness which ronders other suburban districts so irksome to tho inhabitants. It has also a large frontage to Brownstreet, leading to tho Auckland Hundreds, from which it is readily accessible, aud whore it is capable of subdivision at any time into allotments suitablo for jliib- 01 great prospective value. To nu-ui tho wishes of intending purchasers desiring an i extontion of the proporty, ! A TWO-ACRE PADDOCK, with tho samo frontage, immediately adjoining the above, and commanding a view which for beauty and extent is unsurpassed in tho Province, will be sold at the same time, in a separato lot.
