ville & Raleigh Plank Road, eleven miles from the
former place, and within three miles of King's Land
ing on Cape Fear River. These premises offer more
business conveniences and comforts for living, per
haps than any country seat in Cumberland. On them
is a neat two-story family mansion, containing seven
rooms—a fire place in each, with front and rear piazza
and portico, frame kitchen, sleeping apartments for
servants, smoke house and dairy, with a prime well of
water; and all handsomely enclosed. Also, on the
premises are nine other frame buildings, with brick
chimneys to each, and rooms sufficient to accommo
date from fifty to sixty negroes; a frame Barn 50 by GO
feet, with stalls for forty horses, and room to hold 50
tons of forage; Carriage house, Store and Ware house;
Water Grist Mill, two Cooper and two Blacksmith’s
Shops, Wheel Right Shop, Turpentine Sheds, &c.; all
within convenient distance of the best Springs of
Sandhill Water. .\11 the buildings ar'. new and have
been erected within the last four or five years. To
these valuable improvements we will add 1,500 acres
of Pine Lands, and we will take $3,.500 for the whole,
which is .$1000 less than the cost of the improvements.
We have also, on the premises, and now in operation,
a Steam Saw and Grist Mill, and Turpentine Distillery,
which can be bought cheap.
If the right sort of a purchaser ptesents himself, and
wishes a partner in his operations, we will furnish one
with sufficient capital t* conduct a profitable business.
To a Planter who has $14,000 to invest in real estate
and wants the best Plantation on Cape Fear River,
with a healthy country seat with all conveniences for
living at band, these premises would be a very desir
able attachment to the .\she Plantation, containing
seven hundrei acres of the best Cape Fear bottoms, and
now in market. These two Estates are connected by
a good Ferry Lauding and are only three miles apart;
and will be sold together or separate. For further
particulars apply to T. .S. Lutterloh, Esq., or the sub
