These sections commanjl a magnificent uninterrupted view of tho harbour from Pencarrow Head to - Petono. They are easily built upon, are accessible by ferry eCeamer iri halfan houi, and by good, roads and omnibuses from tho city, and cannot be' surpassod as healthy seaside residential sites. • The Hearn's Bay Estate is in the market only because Mr. and Mrs. . Hearn are leaving tho colony to make their future home in America. It must therefore bo an absolute salo in every sense. This salo gives an opportunity to the family man or the bachelor to secure a seaside cottage ready furnished for a less sum than ho would be required to pay for the land alone. 'Each section of land with the furnished cottago will be put up at an upset price of £150, and a depoeft I of £25_ will purchaso it, with immediate possession, and tho balance on terms at 5J per cent, interest. Tho fortunate purchaser will thus have a furnished house and nearly a quarter of an acre of land for an annual interest charge on his pur-chasc-monoy of a month's rental. Who will hofdtato to purchaso a seaside- home at such a price and on such terms? They are extraordinary and unique, and only possible because Mr. Hearn must leave tho colony at an early date. The land on which the cottagos and other buildings stand was tho first purchase made from the Messrs. Crawford, and Mr. Hearn secured tho beautiful halfmoon bay, with a wide stretch of sandy beach, now known as Hearn's Bay, the very pick of the basket. Far inferior lar\d is selling- at £6 per foot, and tho market value of this portion of tho Marine Parado is estimated at £10 per foot The special development in tho Borough of Miramar in which this property is situated is best revealed by the fact that the valuo of the borough has risen during the last five years from £33,648 to £340,878. Although repeated "requests havo been made to rent the cottages for the summer season, they have been kept vacant so that purchasers can, havo possession the morning after sale.

It will prove 1 a delightful outing. i SALE OF SPECIALLY BEAUTIFUL, VALUABLE, AND MODERN FAMDLY RESIDENCE, ELLICE-ST. IN THE EXCHANGE LAND MART, No. 84, Lambton-quay, Wellington.
