A Beautiful Village Residence,
FOR S./ILE flT.d SJYCRIFICE.
Iii’
ONE of the most desirable resi-
dences in the village of Norwalk, is offered for
sale upon very easy terms and for much less
than its value, in consequence of the absence
of the owner. The house was built in the best
manner and of the best materials - is new and
most eiigibly situated upon the principal street
of the town. But a small portion of the pur-
chase money is requircd down, the remainder
can remain on bond and mortgage if desired.
For a genteel country residence, few places
can surpass it for beauty and desirableness of
location. This is an opportunity to secure a
comfortable home,seld0m ofi'ered. For further
particulars apply to the Editor of the Gazette.
