Additional Information: | This historic farmstead is set near the center of the section, 0.37 miles west of Hillside Drive. The house and barn predate 1937, one historic barn is nonextant, and one garage is a modern addition.
This tall gabled barn is set north of the house. It has a cobblestone base, worn vertical wood-clad walls, and a metal roof. Three small shed-roof additions protrude from the south and east elevations. The southern bay houses the primary entrances (sliding door and pedestrian door), and a glass block window. The barn's integrity of workmanship and design has suffered because of the alterations. The structure is in fair condition.
