Profitable and income-earning goat cheese (chevre) business, production facility, and charming homestead for sale. Fredrikson Farm presents an excellent opportunity to become the new steward of a locally owned and respected brand, featuring a lovely herd of approximately 100 Saanen goats and established distribution in well-known local supermarkets throughout the Northeast. Fredrikson Farm Chevre enjoys brand recognition across New England and New York, with consistent growth every year. In addition to acquiring an established brand, the property comprises residential, agricultural, and commercial facilities located in China, Maine, near Waterville, Augusta, and Erskine Academy. Since 2010, the owners have dedicated themselves to cultivating and operating an efficient dairy facility that produces high-quality products from happy animals. They have taken significant measures to ensure the milk is processed to create exceptional, soft-spreading chevre cheese. The owners take great pride in crafting quality products for their customers. The property spanning approximately 47.5 acres includes a mix of forested land, streams, pond frontage, and about 20 acres of hay-producing fields. The main house has four bedrooms, two baths, and a two-car attached garage. Additional infrastructure includes a fully insulated and heated, oversized workshop with a break room and bath, a buck barn, a kid barn, a pole barn, a loafing barn, a cheese-making room equipped with modern and efficient machinery, and a conditioned packing and storage area.
