The total construction area is 472.92 square meters. In 1878, Mao Situan, Mao Zedong's great grandfather, bought five half thatched cottages beside the upper house, which were first lived by Mao Dechen, his eldest son. Ten years later, Mao siduan's two sons separated, and his second son Mao Yichen shared the house. He carried his son Mao Shunsheng, and his daughter-in-law Wen moved here from maocaotang. Around 1918, Mao Shunsheng expanded the cottage into 13 half tile houses. Mao Zedong was born here on December 26, 1893, and spent his childhood and youth in Shaoshan. In the autumn of 1910, Mao Zedong went out to study with great ambition to save the country and the people. In the spring of 1912, Mao Zedong returned here to educate his relatives to join the revolution. In 1925, when Mao Zedong returned to his hometown to carry out the peasant movement, he held various small meetings here and established the Shaoshan branch of the Communist Party of China. On the new year's day of 1927, when Mao Zedong inspected the peasant movement in Hunan, he held an investigation meeting here. In June 1959, Mao Zedong visited his hometown. On March 4, 1961, the State Council announced that the former residence of Comrade Mao Zedong in Shaoshan was a national key cultural relics protection unit.

This is a winner and a winner, but not arrogant and complacent; this is a great man, a giant, still looking forward to the future, steady, calm, confident and resolute, people can feel great power from him; on the base, the five words "Comrade Mao Zedong" inscribed by Jiang Zemin are glittering. Around the base are neatly placed chrysanthemums presented by people, including bonsai carefully cultivated by a local farmer in Shaoshan.
