The 1,5-storey house built in the 1890's has a structured layout. It embraces the eras atmosphere of St. Petersburg summerhouses decorated with wooden lace, but also reflects the creative ambitions of its owner. Sculptor Amandus Heinrich Adamson built the house as a summer studio in the 1890's, but used it as a residence after his home had been destroyed in fire in 1944. Decorated rafter ends, wooden consoles, decorative cladding, but also the weather vane and rooftop tower make you think the details are created by the sculptor himself, adding extra value to the house. No reconstructions have been done. The north-western wing houses a small room and a kitchen, the south-eastern side has a studio with high ceilings and another little room. Small garrets are found on both ends of the studio. Currently the house displays a museum about the work and life of Amandus Adamson.
