257 Pleasant View Ridge Rd China, ME 04358

Located in China, Maine, the property at 257 Pleasant View Ridge Rd features a blend of historic charm and modern agricultural infrastructure. The centerpiece is a remodeled barn, originally constructed in 1800 and updated after its purchase in 1996. The barn is designed to accommodate up to 400 head of cattle and also presents potential as a horse farm.

Two heavy-use areas enhance functionality: one with a Quonset hut and a 170-foot fence line feeder, and another behind the barn with its own feeder and manure storage. A large 170' x 100' manure facility with precast walls further supports the farm's livestock capacity. Recreational opportunities include a hunting camp beside a stream, along with a 10' x 10' elevated platform for hunting deer, turkey, and birds. The woodland acreage is suitable for hiking, ATV riding, and horseback riding. A 16' x 16' generator building houses a 25 kW self-contained diesel generator for backup power.
