The Lakić House is located in the Village of Topola, in the hamlet of Bor. It is a residential building of a rural household, built at the end of the 18th century, with a developed base type and a cellar beneath half of the ground floor. The ground floor consists of a spacious ‘house’ with an open hearth, two rooms, a partially cornered porch, and a ‘ćiler’ (storage room). The four-sided roof is covered with tiles and features wide eaves. The cellar section includes an open porch supported by wooden columns on stone bases.
It belongs to the rarely preserved type of Serbian houses from economically prosperous rural households at the transition from the 18th to the 19th century, maintaining its authentic appearance unchanged.
