SCHEDULE.

WELLINGTON LAND DISTRICT.—LOWER HUTT BOROUGH.

Belmont Survey District.—Hutt Valley Settlement.

The sections now offered comprise part of the Hutt Valley
Settlement acquired by the Crown from Mrs. Riddiford. The
situation is generally looked upon as second to none in the
Hutt Valley, being in close proximity to Ludlam Crescent and
to the well-known Bellevue Gardens. The land is of rich
alluvial nature and suitable for all kinds of gardening. Many
of the sections contain part of the native bush.

The sections have been laid out in areas varying from
25 perches to 65 perches and with minimum frontages of
50 ft. The formation levels of the road throughout this settle-
ment are being kept generally below the level of the sections
in order to give better settings for houses and to provide
adequate facilities for storm-water drainage. The roads will
also be constructed to a width sufficient for the accommoda-
tion of all traffic, and will be finished off on both sides by a
grass berm.

This subdivision is within two or three minutes’ walk of the
new railway-station now in the course of construction, and
will be within twenty minutes or less of Wellington by rail
which will be in operation at the beginning of the new year.

On the opposite side of the railway from this subdivision a
school-site has been selected by the Wellington Education
Board, and a school will be erected at an early date.

The sections now under offer comprise excellent building-
sites in a select residential locality that will shortly be pro-
vided with sewerage, storm-water drains, high-pressure water-
supply, gas, and electric lighting.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS.

The attention of intending purchasers is drawn to ease-
ments for public purposes as shown on the plan.

Intending purchasers are also advised that a building-line
restriction will operate in case of sections fronting streets of a
less width than 66ft.
