AMoft elegant feat, little, if any inferior, to any
in Jersey, calculated either for the gentleman
or the man of business, situated in the township
of Amwell, in the county of Hunterdon, in a very
agreeable neighbourhood and healthy part of the coun
try; the profped beautiful, as it overlooks a large ex
tent of country, within one day's ride of New-York
or Philadelphia; the dwelling-house brick, well fi
nifhed, 36 feet by 48, two stories high, with 4 rooms
on a floor, and a 10 feet entry through the whole, a
neat court-yard in front newly enclosed with a neat
pale fence. Ihe farm contains near 400 acres of
good land, well watered and timbered, with a large
proportion of meadow ; several hundred apple-trees of
rhe best fruit, many of them grafted. The south
branch of the river Raritan, a never failing stream,
palling through part of laid farm, on which are a grid
mill and saw-mill, belonging to the premises, in good
repair, the running gears of the grist-mill being mostly
made new last fummer,in which are two water-wheels,
with two pair of Rones, one pair of which are French
burrs, a rolling screen, &c. going by water, and every
thing in proper order for manufacturing of flour after
the bed manner. —The saw-mill new.— The stand for
country work equal to any in Jersey. This place be
ing equally diflant from New-York or Philadelphia,
gives the choice of either market a material advantage
to the trader. There is a good well of water by the
kitchen door; also newly eroded water-works, simi
lar to those in Bethlehem in Pennsylvania, worked by
the water-wheel of the saw-mill, which, without being
any obftrudion to the sawing, elevates the water be
tween 60 and 7 0 fc et > forces it under ground 250
yards, and brings it within a few feet of the kitchen
door, where it difeharges about one hogshead of water
in a minute, which water, after supplying the house,
garden, &c. is designed to be thrown over 25 or 30
acres of ground which lies near the house, and has a
beautiful defeent for watered meadow, a good barn,
waggon house, &c. &c. It is not likely any person
inclining to purchase would with a more minute de
scription, as a fight of the premises would be much
more fatisfadory. A clear and indisputable title will
be made, and poneffion given on the firft day of May.
For further particulars enquire of the fubferiber on
the premises, AMOS GREGG.
