Residential properties of Houlton are located to the northeast, east, and southeast of the area. The subject property features a house (AHI No. 233426), warehouse (AHI No. 233425), stone and concrete-block foundation remnant that may have been part of a single former outbuilding, and a stone-lined drainage ditch.

Based on current county parcel data, the driveway, warehouse, and drainage ditch are located on Kolliner Park land while the house and foundation remnant is on a separate parcel (see the accompanying historic boundary map). The park is a wooded, largely undeveloped, discontinuous parcel. The property is accessed by a driveway, demarcated by a simple metal gate at STH 64. The driveway leads to the warehouse, and the house is sited east of the warehouse separated by concrete slab patio space. The foundation remnant is located east of the house amongst the surrounding trees, while the stone-lined drainage ditch is located south of the other three resources.
