Until you have seen LONG POINT you cannot realize how blg and fine it is, or what opportunities it presents for bungalows or as an investment. The land rises gradually from the water‘s edge to a height of 35 feet, so that nearly every bungalow will command a magnificent view of the water, which surrounds THE POINT on three sides. . Last season in 3 months about 150 genuine Americans visited the property, and to these we sold out our entire first addition. Many of those who purchased in this first section have already sold out at a profit—the others can very easily do so. They have seen houses go up all around them, noticed the advancing prices, and realized that this is the last great shore development, consequel:ltly they own a monopoly. The demud f(')r beach property is steadily increasing, but the supply cannot increase a single foot. Remember how values increased at Ocean Beach, Watch Hill, Savin Rock and other desirable beaches. YOU ARE TOO LATE for this first section, but you have one last opportunity—our second addition.
