The Chellberg Farm reflects the ethnic heritage of this nearly forgotten Swedish-American settlement. Other nearby Swedish landmarks have been restored or preserved, including the Burstrom Chapel and the Burstrom Cemetery.[1] The farm includes the family home, water house with windmill, chicken coop/bunkhouse, and the original barn.

This is a popular architectural type of late 19th century and can be found in other homes of that time period. The brick is from the Porter brickyards. It was constructed by a local Swedish carpenter. There is a porch on front of 1 story wing.[1]
  • Barn - Built in 1870, the barn is two-stories with partial loft, measuring 50'x24'--approximately 25' to the peak. It is a three-bay floor plan under a wood gable roof. It is built of heavy timbers with a cedar shingle roof, small vent cupola, and wood siding.[1]
