TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,

At the Auction Mart, London, on THURSDAY, June 11,

at Twelve o'clock,
A Very Valuable and Desirable FREE-
ix. HOLD PROPERTY, particularly eligible as an
Investment, and advantageous and profitable to the Agri-
culturist; it comprehends a Residence, substantially and
very conveniently built, calculated for a Family of respec-
tability, with corresponding offices of every description ;
the latter secluded from the abode by Shrubbery Walks,
Fruit and Flower Gardens, &c. ; the situation is un-
usually inviting, and particularly dry and healthy, adjoin-
ing the turnpike road, contiguous to

PORTSDOWN HILL,
two miles from the capital Market town of Fareham, seven
from Portsmouth, fourteen from Southampton, sixteen
from Petersfield and Chichester. Connected with the
Fares are Barns, Stabling, and Granary, Cart Houses,
&c. ; spacious and convenient Homestead ; four Labourers'
Cottages and Gardens, and
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES, statute mea-
sure, OF THE FIRST QUALITY OF ARABLE,
MEADOW, AND DOWN LANDS, upon which is a
Chalk Pit, with a Kiln thereon constantly ii use. The
Pit contains an inexhaustible supply of Chalk of the best
quality for making lime, and for sale for manure, for
which articles there is a constant demand • its conveyance
to the surrounding neighbourhood is cheaply and expe-
ditiously accomplished, the Pit being within a Mile from
the Water side. This property is entirely within a Ring
Fence, in the occupation of a respectable Tenant for
the last fourteen years (whose Lease expires at Michael-
mas next), at an inadequate Rent the last renewal
being in 1822, (the very worst year for agricultural
produce that can be remembered.) The Residence was
recently tenanted by Admirals Paterson and Gif-
ard, and now by the Proprietors. The whole Estate
is in perfect order and complete repair. The Prospect-
rooms offer uninterrupted and very interesting scenery, ex-
tending to Portsmouth Harbour, Spithead, the Isle of
Wight, and Southampton Waters. The View from the
Down Lands is still more interesting and beautiful, em-
bracing a distance of at least 20 miles in every direction of
Sea and Land, which probably is not equalled in England.
The Taxes are very low ; the Land Tax on the Dwel-
ling-house is Redeemed. Four stage-coaches to and from
Southampton, Brighton, Portsmouth, and Plymouth, and
the mail between Bristol and Portsmouth pass the premises
daily ; and two Passage-boats, to and from Portsmouth,
afford a cheap and expeditious communication, the distance
being about tour miles.

Particulars of this most desirable Property may be had
21 days prior to the Sale at the best Inns at Portsmouth,
Southampton, Fareham, Petersfield, Chichester, and Brigh-
ton ; the Auction Mart ; and at Mr. George Robins's
offices, London, where a sketch of the Ebtate may be seen.
