TO BE SOLD, - ~~
A LEASE for from yean,from the 25th March next, in that
capital and beautiful FARM, called ,
P R O S P E C T-H ILL, bel
Situated within one quarter of a mile from the Brandy wine H<
Mills, and half a mile from the borough of Wilmington.
THE dwelling -house is built of (lone, two stories ilign,
genteelv finifhed, and contains four handlome rooms on
a floor, besides an entrv, with capital garrets, and convenient _
cellars. It is geneially thought to command the moit a
greeable profpeft of the Delaware, from the source of that
rivet to the Capes. This profpeft 1a greatly ernbellifhed by
a full view of a vast body of meadow, through which the
Chn'ftiana and Brandy wine ereeks are seen winding in beau- I
tiful meanders. Near the house are a Kitchen, a spacious J
stone liable and hay left, a barn, a carnage/house, milk- ,h
house, See. and a well of as pure water as any on the conti
nent. The garden contains an aere and ot land, a- t J,
bounding with fruit, and particularly with peach trees, of j, Q
the very best kind, brought from Maryland, and m full bear- ti(
ing. There i», moreover, on the place, a young, apple t - (
orchard begining t. bear, and several old trees that produce p(
abundantly, besides cherry and other ornamental trees, in
great numbers. The farm cenfifts of near sixty acres of land,
of good quality, and clear of incumbrances, except taxes,
twenty of wineh are now in excellent clover and timothy,
ani ten more will he ready tor lowing next fprins- A ~
fidence of nearly 8 years has convinced the fublcriber that o>.
the filuation is remarkably healthy. The great pod load
from Philadelphia to the Southward runs within seventy fa
yards of the house. In a word, the beauties and convent- tfo
«nce of this situation cannot be enumerated in an advertise
ment, and when Examined, will probably command the at
tention of any per (on who is desirous of living at one of the
Oloft elegant country feats on the continent. The purchaser
may enter on the premiOs next spring, or prthapj, this fall,
if application be immediately made to Dactor NICHOLAS
