The House of Petar Tucaković was built in the first half of the nineteenth century, as evidenced by certain construction elements and details, as well as the owner's account that the year of construction, 1817, was engraved on the lintel, which has since been changed. It was built as the home of the joint Tucaković family, the most famous member of which, Petar Tucaković, was a revolutionary and a prominent figure in Prince Miloš's (Serbian Knez Miloš’s) Serbia. As a capable revolutionary, he became a buljubasha (captain) of the prince's guards, ‘kabadhija’, and later, as a captain of Gruža and a colonel in the standing army, he was appointed a member of the National Council.

The house was built using the bondruk system with a filling of chatma, and it is located on a gently sloping terrain, which was used for a cellar. It is set on shallow foundations made of broken and squared stone. The walls are made of chatma, filled with woven branches and earth, coated with clay plaster and whitewashed. It is characterized by a spacious porch supported by seven oak pillars, one of which has a cushion, with a railing made of profiled tiles, finished with a projecting part. The roof is gable, with a mild slope, covered with tiles.

The house has a three-part spatial structure consisting of a ‘house’, a room, and a guest room. From the porch, one enters the guest room and the ‘house’, and from the ‘house’ into a small room, which was likely created by a later partition. Along the partition wall between the ‘house’ and the guest room is a brick fireplace.
