The residential and farm building at Dorfstraße 5 in Ekholt is classified as a listed farm building. The structure is a two-post hall house from the 18th century with a thatched roof and a stable extension dating from the late 19th century. The farmhouse retains large parts of its period interior, including historic details in the stable extension.
The former stable and storage building of the schoolmaster in Seeth-Ekholt was faithfully restored on the outside and is now used as a youth centre.
