The farmhouse dates to the late-18th to early-19th century, and is a large 2 1/2-story, clapboard sided dwelling. It has a slate covered gable roof with dormers. The oldest section is of log construction and it was added on numerous times over the succeeding years. Also on the property are a variety of modern barns and farm outbuildings.[2]
