It is said that Korean novelist Yoon Hu-myeong also appreciated the structure of the guesthouse, saying, “It is an interesting place.” Built in the 1930s, the house, which has many storage places, was taken by the owner couple in spring 2014 as they were attracted by the house during their trip to Seochon. After the repair work, the ground floor of the house was opened for guests from January 2016, hoping that guests could share their daily experiences and stories with each other. The guestrooms and the main floored room on the ground floor are open to guests, with the exception of the first floor, which is used by the owner couple.

El valle Mugunghwa se encuentra lleno de flores de la rosa de Sharon, una fuente y una estatua del ave fénix, que conforman el lugar perfecto para la toma de fotografías. El lugar presenta un paisaje aún más bello entre julio y octubre, cuando las flores mugunghwa, la flor nacional, rompen sus pimpollos y cubren el jardín con su aroma. Todos los obsequios entregados al presidente se encuentran dispuestos aquí en exposición. Desde mayo de 2022, el predio de Cheong Wa Dae se encuentra abierto al público.
