The manor house, the outbuildings, and the garden are designed by the Herborner architect Ludwig Hofmann (1862–1933), who in 1892 was appointed by Privy Councillor of Commerce Rudolf Haas, owner of the opposite located "Neuhoffnungshütte".

The “Neuhoffnungshütte” with its iron mines had from its Nassautic beginnings until the Second World War a high strategic importance; it was the economic basis for the metallic prosperity of this area.

In 1978 Dr. Klaus F. Müller acquired the villa and park as a co-founder of German and European oral implantology; he used parts of the estate for practical laboratory and advanced training.

This total impression is strengthened by the superior stairtower with roof helmet, the mining symbol, and the stained glass with motifs of Rhine romanticism from Johann Heinrich Schilbach as well as the detailed facades.

The Grade II listed garden area contains, besides rare plants, shrubs, and trees, many stylistic elements of the historical park, like the ruin with the ice-house, the cave, the arcades, the pond, the rondell, the fountains, the cherubs, etc.
