The Spasiç family house is located in the center of the village of Hoçë e Madhe, about 5 km east of Rahovec. The house was built by Sima and Spasa Nedeljkoviç during the years 1830-1835, who after building the house went on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. From the time it was built until today, the house has remained in the ownership of the same family and has been used for housing.
The building has a rectangular floor plan, built with a ground floor and an upper floor. The ground floor contains the hayat, a room, the kitchen and the bathroom. Access to the upper floor is through wooden stairs from the hayat. The upper floor contains the çardak, which also plays the role of an entrance hall to two rooms and a bathroom. The side facade borders the house complex with the street on the eastern side.
A characteristic element on this facade is the console, which projects from the perimeter of the upper floor, creating a light-and-shadow effect on the linear surface. The front facade is oriented to the south and overlooks the courtyard. The characteristic elements on this facade are three windows placed in a row, and the çardak in the southeastern corner, bounded by a wooden fence.
The walls on the ground floor are built of local stones bound with lime mortar, while on the upper floor of adobe (qerpiç) reinforced with timber beams in the “bondruk” system. The roof is hipped, covered with clay tiles. In the interior of the house, the original elements have been preserved, characterized by a high level of woodcarving.
Among the interior elements worth highlighting are the wooden columns with capitals decorated in arched forms, the door leaves decorated with geometric motifs, the “shishe tavan” ceilings, the qymlekllëk – the fireplace, and the iconostasis with the family icon brought from Jerusalem, together with the family relics.
In the southern part of the house lies the courtyard, surrounded by a wall, which separates the space of the house from the street on the southeastern side. The courtyard is paved with river stones – cobblestones, where, alongside the house, there are two service spaces and the section for storing firewood. In 2010 it was converted into a guesthouse offering bed and breakfast.
