The wooden floor is elevated; verandahs extend from both the front and back of the house. The lower walls are made from a mixture of lime and sand, while the upper walls are built with wooden planks. A simple wood-framed gable roof is covered with thatch. According to the current owner, this was formerly the house of King Andreas, a prominent local ruler in Aru.
