Маленьке і глухе село Чайкине на самій півночі України, поблизу українсько-російського кордону, відоме як батьківщина другого президента України Леоніда Кучми.
Чайкине засноване в кінці XVIII сторіччя. За легендою, засновником був козак Чайка.
Розквіт села припав на 1990-і роки, коли уродженець Чайкиного Леонід Кучма був обраний президентом. Тоді в село провели газ, проклали нову асфальтовану дорогу від Новгорода-Сіверського, побудували нові будівлі сільради, школи, дитячого садка, медпункту та поліцейського відділку, звели десяток двоповерхових житлових котеджів, відкрили готель і басейн.
Церква Святої Параскеви побудована в 1999-2002 роках і названа на честь матері Леоніда Кучми.

Leonid Kuchma's House
Historic area
Leonid Kuchma's house in Chaikyne was built in 2000-2003 on the place where the wooden parental house of the second president of Ukraine used to stand.
Kuchma was born in 1938 in the local forestry near the nearby village of Uzrui, where his father Danylo worked as a forester, and spent his childhood and youth in Chaikyne.
The current brick building of modern architecture has an area of about 600 square meters. Visually from the street, it seems that Kuchma's house has only 2 floors, but in fact it is four-level. The Great Hall on the fourth floor is used as a public children's library. Other rooms are residential. Leonid Kuchma stops here when he visits his small homeland.
A modern kindergarten and a school have been built nearby. The architecture is reminiscent of the buildings of the famous Kovalivka in the Kyiv region, the homeland of politicians and businessmen of Zasukha, who also own the Taras Shevchenko CJSC agricultural enterprise in Chaikyne.
