τὸ δὲ τῆς Δήμητρος ἱερὸν τῆς Θεσμοφόρου Κάδμου καὶ τῶν ἀπογόνων οἰκίαν ποτὲ εἶναι λέγουσι·
Extraposed accusative-and-infinitive: λέγουσι governs εἶναι, with τὸ ... ἱερόν as the accusative subject and οἰκίαν as the predicate accusative; τῆς Θεσμοφόρου is an epithet/genitive dependent on Δήμητρος, while Κάδμου καὶ τῶν ἀπογόνων modifies οἰκίαν.

Δήμητρος δὲ ἄγαλμα ὅσον ἐς στέρνα ἐστὶν ἐν τῷ φανερῷ.
The sentence has an elliptical copular description: the Demeter statue is as large as the breast/chest and is in the open; ὅσον ἐς στέρνα is treated as an extent/measure phrase, with στέρνα likely accusative plural or neuter plural form, though contextual interpretation is somewhat uncertain.
