THE ORCIIXED HILL ESTATE

has always been remarked for a combination of everything con-
nected with comfort ; a sort of quietude prevails throughout, for
without pretending to the art of modern tactics, it claims to be
called altogether a cozy habitation, than which a higher penenric
does not occur to the composer of this sketch. It is only 20 miles
front London, and-right froprAke railway station,, with a capital
road passing through it 'to Leamington, Buckingham, Windsor,
and Aylesbury; it is within an easy drlve of Butstrode Park,
Dropmere, Cliefden, and Tapton, all favoured objects in the imme-
diati vicinity, while

ble from a finely wooded park, and grounds undulating most beau.
tifully in every direction, are possessed in the fullest extent with-
out sustaining any of its outlay.
THE QUIET LITTLE DEMESNE
under consideration is limited to

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FIVE ACRES,

ALL FREEHOLD, A PORTION TITHE FREE, ANL) NO
LAND TAX.

It is of a parkish character, prettily timbered, and the residence
seems especially adapted either to a sporting man or a retired mer-
chant. It contains the most abundant accommodation, including
altogether 10 bed chamber= ; the drawing.room and parlour, with
a bow window to each, 27 feet long; library, breakfast-room com-
municating with the

CONSERVATORY AND THE DUTCH GARDEN,
precenting altogether a very agreeable ensemble. The offices within
and without include all that can be desired : in the courtyard will
be found every appendage to comfort in its literal sense. The kit.
then garden exceeds an acre of prolific ground, walled round and
clothed with choice fruit trees. The Dutch garden is disposed in
excellent taste, and the American border (as it is denominated) is
extensive and full of luxuriant plants, with
A RHODODENDRON FENCE,
the effect of which should be seen at the proper season to be under-
stood or appreciated. The buildings essential to agricultural pur-
suits are ranged around the farm-yard, which is warm and shel-
tered. Thera arc six cottages, dispersedly placed, of which four
are vis-a.vis to the two entrees to Chalfont Park. Such is a very
moderate outline ora most enviable property in a neighbourhood
particularly prone to good fellowship. racks of hounds are within
easy reach, and game sufficient for amusement. It can only be
viewed by a printed particular, which will have a drawing of the
house and grounds annexed, and be ready 28 days antecedent to the
sale, at the White Horse, Uxbridge; the White Hart Hotel,
Windsor ; Botham's, Salthill ; of Messrs. Cunnington and Veley,
solicitors, Braintree; the Auction Mart; and in Covent-garden.
