Introduction
Located in Jangdeok 1-ri, Jumunjin, this house was designated as a Gangwon-do Cultural Heritage on January 17, 1985. While the exact construction date is unknown, it features a traditional courtyard layout. The main house (Anchae) and guest house (Sarangchae) have hip-and-gable roofs, while the other sections have gable roofs. It stands on natural stone foundations with trapezoidal granite plinths. Although modernized with an indoor kitchen and expanded rooms, it preserves its historical value.
Tourist Guide
The main house is 4 units wide and 2 units deep. On the right, there is a kitchen with a warehouse and stable built at a slightly lower level. The guest house features a wooden-floored hall (Daecheong) with a specialized ceiling (Nunseop-cheonjang) and paneled walls. The windows and doors are intricately designed with traditional lattices and ventilation hatches that can be opened and closed.
Tourist Tips
The house uses double doors (sliding and lattice) between rooms for better insulation. To protect the exposed wooden structures from wind and rain, windboards (Pungpan) are attached to the sides. Pay attention to the decorative panels (Gungpan) and the structural supports (Boaji) on the guest house pillars, which add a unique aesthetic touch to the sturdy architecture.
