Lieutenant Anton af Geijerstam, born in 1758 to Emanuel af Geijerstam, resided at the estate in 1799,[2] where he died in 1820.[3] After his death, the estate was inherited by his widow, Christina Charlotta af Geijerstam (née Sundell), who held ownership until 1820.[4] Subsequently, the estate was first acquired by Nils Olofsson and then by lay judge Peter Persson.[4]
By 1883, the estate had been designated as a kronolänsmansboställe.[4]
In November 2022, it was announced that the area northwest of the property has been identified as a potential site for residential development.[5]
