Deoksan Historic House, Yeongju

Deoksan Historic House stands facing southwest on a plot adjoining Goeheon Historic House, which is designated as a Gyeongsangbuk-do Folklore Cultural Heritage, and shows a typical square (mija) floor plan, six bays across the front and six bays deep, in which the main house (anchae), the men's quarters (sarangchae) and the servants' quarters (haengnangchae) are linked around a central courtyard. As a traditional house well equipped with a principal residence (jeongchim), a gate house, a mill house and a seodang (village school), it shows some alteration to its exterior form, yet its floor plan is well preserved; distinctive features survive well, including a storehouse fitted with a wooden floor and the circulation linking the sarangchae and the anchae, making it a good example of the lifestyle of a scholar-official household in the late Joseon period.
