SAS(p UA HILLS 
 
 ^j HE continuous chain of towns 
 and villages between New York 
 and Bridgeport, a stretch of 
 about sixty miles, comprises one of 
 the most extensive and attractive 
 populous regions in the United 
 States. A beautiful rolling country 
 skirting Long Island Sound, in- 
 dented at intervals with bays and 
 inlets, sloping back to the Uplands 
 of Westchester and the Hills of 
 Connecticut, this entire section is 
 thickly studded with the splendid 
 estates and palatial homes of many 
 of New York's most influential 
 families. 
 
 Unsurpassed facilities for boat- 
 ing and other water sports, many 
 of the country's best golf courses, 
 excellent roads, with frequent extensive growths of heavy timber 
 affording drives of unusual charm, many points of historic 
 interest, and all the numerous improvements and advantages 
 peculiar to communities of refinement and affluence, all contribute 
 to make this entire region one of special appeal to those con- 
 templating residence out of the city, either for the summer or 
 throughout the year. This entire country being traversed by 
 the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, the com- 
 muting facilities are of the best; free from dust and smoke — no 
 grade crossings, and the intercommunication by trolley between 
 points is an added convenience. 
 
Lying near the Saugatuek River, 
 just beyond South Norwalk in the 
 most attractive section of the district 
 above described and favored by many 
 well known New Yorkers, is the 
 SASQUA HILLS DEVELOPMENT. 
 From an undulating plateau, at 
 an elevation of about ioo feet above 
 sea level, the land gently slopes to the 
 meadows bordering the Sound. Fac- 
 ing the waters of the Saugatuek River 
 and the Sound to the East, the view 
 extends to the West, overlooking 
 Norwalk Harbor — affording to every 
 plot a pleasing and more or less exten- 
 sive water view, while the property is sufficiently distant from 
 the shore to avoid the unpleasant glare usual to seaside resorts. 
 Electricity, the best of city water, supplied from the Norwalk 
 City mains; proper drainage; proximity to the city of Norwalk, 
 assuring delivery of supplies, etc., are among the conveniences; 
 gas will be introduced when demand is sufficient. 
 
 The character of the property, together with the foregoing 
 facilities, constitute the rare combination of real country life 
 with all city conveniences and advantages. 
 
 
The property lying between two important and nearby 
 express stations, is approached from every direction by fine 
 roads. Compo Beach, one of the finest bathing beaches on the 
 Sound, is just across the Saugatuck Harbor and within short 
 driving distance. 
 
 The Westport, Brooklawn, Greenwich, Weeburn, Apawamis, 
 Saiwanoy, and Wykagael Golf Clubs are within easy reach, 
 and the Norwalk Country Club is convenient. Churches of all 
 denominations and excellent schools nearby. Time by rail from 
 Grand Central Terminal, one hour and ten minutes. Rigid 
 restrictions protect purchasers from the possibility of annoyance 
 or any undesirable conditions. 
 
 In brief, SASQUA HILLS offers unique attractions to 
 those seeking relief from the turmoil of the city and desiring 
 to live in a sweet and wholesome country with ideal surround- 
 ings, free from the drawbacks and disadvantages pertaining to 
 many localities — a home in the country at its best. 
 
 The property is offered to acceptable purchasers in plots 
 of two to ten acres for suitable improvement. -
