TO BE SOLD,
A LEASE fir seven years, from the 25 th March next, in tlst
capital and beautiful FARM, called
PROSPEC T-H I L L,
Situated within one quarter of a mile tfom the Brandywint
, Wills, and halt a mile from the borough of Wilmington.
r jj"HE dwelling house is built of Hone, two (lories high,
ger.teelv finished, and contains four handioiiie rooms on
a floor, besides an entry, with capital garrets, and convenient
Cellars It u generally thought to command the molt a
, f rcablc profpeft of the Delaware, from ihc source of that
-liver t;> thq Capes. This profpeft ia greatly ernbellifhed by
a full view ot a vast bodi of meadow, through which the
Ciiriiliana and Brandy wine creeks are seen winding in besi
titul meanders. Near the house are a Kitchen, -a fpaciouj
stone liable and hay loft a barn, a carnage house, mi£k
houlc,&c.and a well of as puie water as any on the cunti- ,
ncnt. The garden contains an acre and quarter of land, a- •
bounding with fruit, cuti particularly with peach trees, of
very best kind, brought from Maryland, and in full bear
-ng It is is, moreover, on the place, a young, apple
orchard begining to hear, and several old trees that produce
abundantly, besides cherry arid other orn«m«ntal trees, in ,
great numbers. The farm ceniirts of near foty acres of lond,
of good quality, and clear of incumbrances, exc.-pt taxes,
twenty of which arenow in excellent clover and u Blot ivy, 6
and ten more will be ready tor Cowing next fpnng. a »-
fidefiee ot nearly 8 year; has convinced the tub [caber that t
the situation rs remarkably -healthy. The great poll road I
from Philadelphia to the Southward runs wnhin seventy t
yards of thoboufe. In a word, the beauties and convehi- t
ence of this situation cannot be enume rated in an advertile- f
ment, and when examined, will probably command the at- e
-tention of any person wb6 is desirous of living at one of the
most elegant country fears on the continent. The purehafer a
