CHILMAN TOWNSHIP EXTENDED.

The success which attended the sale of S-otions of Chilman's estate at Fitzroy la well-known, all the original investors having secured greit bargains, as evident by the fact that those who resold got more than double their purchase money. Immediately behind this estate lays the property long kcown as P*yntirV, apprcached from the Old Hospital-! oad, about 30 chains distant {rum Devon-street. This magnificent • >tate has been acquired by Mr W Ujurtney, who has cut it up into 80 s clions, varying from eighths of an •are (a few are even les*) up to over on ' acre each. OJy those who have visited a .d inspected this land can have any ilte cf the exceptionally attractive mtore of the sections, all cf which are splendidly situated foi s:curiug excellent dra'nsge, Oa entering the laid, a visitor is at once struck with tie fact that it is cno of the choicest Siotß around town. The sections on t'ae southern side slope up to a plateau, from which magnificent; views can be • obtained in all direceions for miles - Egmont, JRuapehu, White Cl.ffs, and the Ranges all being visible, while the slope itee'f is open to the sun all day, is protected from the mountain winds, 3 and is sufficiently far from the sea to be free from its salt spray. As a healthy ai:a these sections are unique. The notions on the southern side of the roadway an also very attractive, and beinp nearly level should ba keenly competed far. The subdivisions are so well arranged that they should all be tempting I) investors either for residential oi speculative purposes. There are many advantages in esse and in posse. The town water aapply is obtainable, towu is easily reached—a most convenient 'bus service passing within easy distance of the property—and at no distant date there is every prob ibily cf a railway station bung practically on the •state. The upset prices are, as compared with adjoining land, very low, in - fact less than half. Fii zroy is easily reached by the road on the eastern side of the estate and there is no doubt that this end of the town will become the most important suburb of New Plymouth. The sale of these sections on Thursday should attract a large number of buyers, and those prudent investors -who have not seen the property would do well to take an early opportunity of doing so, as is is unlikely another such eiunoa as the present will occur •gain. Certainly no such attractive Mod can be offered elsewhere.
