This China, Maine farm centers on a remodeled historic barn originally built in 1800 and updated after purchase in 1996. The barn supports livestock operations designed for up to 400 head of cattle, with potential to operate as a horse farm. Additional farm structures include a 30' x 40' commercial steel garage, a 30' x 30' Quonset hut, and a double-six herringbone milking parlor with a covered holding area added in 2008.

Two heavy-use areas include dedicated feeder setups and manure storage, supported by a 170' x 100' manure facility with precast walls. Two silos with precast walls and paved floors were added in 2013. A 16' x 16' generator building houses a 25 kW self-contained diesel generator for backup power.

Beyond agriculture, the property includes a hunting camp beside a stream with a 10' x 10' elevated platform. The main house provides 2,058 square feet, with five bedrooms and two baths on its own 2-acre lot.
