According to a Latin inscription on the gatehouse of the property, the half-timbered house was built in 1597. Andreas Quenstedt is named as the client. The decorative shape of the fan rosette is located in the gate . In the period around 1780 the building was given a bay window crowned with a gable . To the west of the gatehouse is a half-timbered residential building. The threshold of the building is richly carved. In addition, there are cylinder beam heads with notch cut motifs .

Another half-timbered building was built around 1580 and also shows decorations in the Renaissance style . An adjoining corner building was built around 1680. Of this, however, only the massive ground floor and a threshold with pyramid beam heads have been preserved.
