TO BE SOLD,
A LEASE for /even years,from the 2sth March next, in that
capital and beautiful FARM* tailed
PROSPECT-HILL,
Situated within one quarter of a mile from the Brandy win*
Mills, and haU a mile from the borough of Wilmington.
THE dwelling houfeis built of stone, two stories High,
genteely finished, and containsrour baivdfome rooms on
a floor, betides an entry, withcnpital garrets, and convenient
cellars It is generally thought to command the most a
greeable profneft of the Delaware, from the fouice ot that
rivei to «hc Capes. This profpefl ia gieatly exr.bel!idied by
■a full view of avail bctdy of meadow, through which the
Cbrifliana and Brandywine crceks are seen winding 111 beau
tiful meanders. Near the house are a Kitchen", a spacious
stone stable and hay loft, a barn, a carriage house, mil*-
house, &c. and a well of as puie water as any on the conti
nent. The garden contains an acre and quarter of land, a
fcounding with fruit, and particularly with peach trees, oi
he very bed kind, brought from Maryland) and in full bear
ing. There is, moreover, on the place, a young, apple
begining to bear, and several old trees that produce
abundantly, besides cherry and other ornamental trees, in
great numbers. The farm consists of near sixty acres of land,
of good quality, and clear of incumbrances, <\xcept taxes,
twenty of which arenow in excellent clover and timothy,
and ten more will be ready tor lowing next spring. A re
fidenee of nearly 8 years has. convinced the fubferiber that
the situation is remarkably healthy. The great post road
from Philadelphia to the Southward runs within seventy
yards of the house. In a word, the beauties and conveni
ence of this situation cannot be enumerated in an adverlile
ment, and when examined, will probably command the at
tention of any person who isdefirous of living at one of the
mod elegant country feats on the continent. The pure Infer
