In offering the above PBOPEBTIES, the Auctioneer feels, relieved from giving the elaborate description usually required to point out the advantages connected with the purchase; in this instance they are so clear that every citizen can at once appreciate them. Lot I is universally admitted to be one of the very best business sites in iheCily of Auckland. Theeslablishmenl is the oldest and has continued to be the most lucrative GROCERY BUSINESS in the Province. The successful purchaser, with proper care, can scarcely fail to realize a fortune. There is no empty boast in these assertions. They are affirmed and believed by every one. Lots 2, 5, and 4 are offered separately to meet the circumstances of a larger circle of buyers, each being complete in itself; but to a person of sufficient capital they would be most advantageously connected with the front premises. Lots 5 and 0 are situated in the centre of of onr rapidity advancing City, as may be seen from the Lily Plan. In no part of Auckland arc improvements being made more rapidly than in the neighbourhood of Lot 7; and in no part could a purchaser find a more eligible site for a Family Residence than Lots 8 and 9. They are belli fenced in, commanding a fine view of the Harbour and its entrance, the City and Suburbs, the Wesleyan College and its extensive pleasure grounds,—all combining to make it a site for a healthy and happy home. Being situated on the leading road to the country, it cannot fail to become the most fashionable drive from the City. In speaking of the Estate as a whole to those who knew the late proprietor, nothing need be said, and to those who were not privileged with his acquaintance, it may safely be added, that the different Lois have been selected by one whose judgment on such mailers was rarely known to err. They may safely be said to form some of the best sites in the metropolis of New Zealand, and circumstances may not soon arise to throw such property into the market aga in. i The whole will be Sold without Reserve. Terms For Lots I, 2, 5, and 4, onethird of the purchase money can remain on Mortgage at 10 per cent., and one-half of the purchase money on Ihe remaining Lots.
