The Dwelling-house is situated in the best part of the town, and is one of tbe most desirable residences in Greymouth, no expense having been spared to make it as comfortable as possible, and it is in excellent repair throughout. The 10 acres on Marsden road are daily increasing in value. The whole of the land in this locality having been sold, makes it difficult to acquire property at almost any price. The 102 acres on Arnold road are admirably adapted for agricultural purposes, and hive the additional advantage of being in close vicinity to Maori Gully, the most flourishing digging township on the West Coast.
