The three-room house was built in the 1870s as the family grew. There is a kitchen in the middle of the house, with a room on either side. The house was inhabited until the end of the 1950s, and its interior represents this period. A cast-iron stove that made it easier to cook was a novelty at the time. In winter, the family did not heat the whole house: one room was kept cold so it could be used as a storeroom.
