The main building and the parallel building Kavalerfløjen are from 1768 and were listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places by the Danish Heritage Agency on 1 December 1959 Gjedsergaard was created in 1766 when Christian VII sold most of the royal holdings on the island of Falster in auction to make payments on Denmark's sovereign debt.

In 1772, when Holck's elder brother Flemming died without issue, he inherited the Barony of Vintersborg on Lolland.

The new owner was Niels Frederiksen Amager who was the local pastor of the parish of Skelby.

[1] Friis constructed the property Friisenfeldt on the land and acquired the farm Nøjsomhed.

Christian Frederik Friis died in 1845 and his widow sold Gedsergaard to Edward Tesdorpf from Orupgård in 1847.

Gjedsergaard with Friisenfeldt and Ludvigsgave was sold to his son Axel Tesdorpf by his widow following his death in 1929.

It is therefore also possible that Holck-Winterfeldt had no intention of using the house as a residence but merely saw it as a source of income and therefore chose a modest design.
