This property ? is all fenced and subdivided into four j paddocks, well watered, well cleared, i and surface sown with English grasses, j There are three patches of native bush | on the property, sufficient for years to } »■ come to supply fencing material and \ fuel to the proprietor. A considsrable area of the Jand is arable, but has never been cultivated yet. This portion of the estate is well adapted for the growth of wheat, oats, barley, turnips, and rape, and if it was brought under the plough would materially increase the carrying capacity of the place, besides greatly adding to its revenueearning power. In its preeent natural state this property carries 4000 firstclass crossbred sheep. The Auctioneers consider the purchase of this property by a practical man having a fair smount of capital will prove a first-class investment. It is distant from railway communication only one mile, and owing to its proximity to Dunedin it should have a special value, fur, as is well known, holders of land close to a city can always take full advantage of the markets. | For terms and other particulars apply to » 12m THE AUCTIONEERS.
