Bützin, Neu Heinde, Wohrenstorf, Vietow, Horst and Weitendorf . The manor complex in Prebberede , the palace of which his grandfather Carl Friedrich Graf von Bassewitz had commissioned, he completed with the construction of a few other buildings and the layout of the park.

At the age of eight he received a prebend at Lübeck Cathedral in 1795, who was resigned to him by his father, and thus became a canon .

After finishing school, he worked as a chamberlain and stable master at the court in Württemberg until he began his studies . He then studied together with his brother Carl Christoph initially in Göttingen and Heidelberg and together with him became a member of the Corps Vandalia Göttingen and Vandalia I Heidelberg . In Göttingen he lived with Prince Anton Paul Sulkoski between 1802 and 1805 in the so-called Prinzenhaus on Prinzenstrasse. At the end of their studies in Rostock in 1808, he and his brother founded the Corps Vandalia Rostock with other corps students .

In the wars of freedom he took part in the rank of major as adjutant Friedrich Ludwig zu Mecklenburg . In Prebberede he ran a stud farm under the stable master Zinkeisen, which was known throughout Germany, but was closed due to inheritance after his death. He had also set up Spanish and merino sheep farms here and on other of his estates . He was a holder of the Royal Prussian Order of St. John and the golden Mecklenburg Military Merit Medal as well as Mecklenburg-Schwerin Chamberlain.
