Plot in very nice condition. I don't know if the old school building also belongs to the same owner, but if it does, then you could take care of it too

On the territory of the manor there is the spirit of a rural school)) a beautiful building. "The Põlula estate (German k Poll) was first mentioned in 1489. The estate belonged to von Bassewitz, Zoge von Manteufels and von Stackelberg. From 1863 until the transfer, the estate belonged to the noble von Kraused family. The main building of the estate was built in two stages. Probably in the middle or second half of the 18th century, a two-story baroque wooden manor building was built, the projecting wings of which are topped by low triangular pediments. In its design, this building is similar to the baroque manors of Maardu, Palmse and Aa from the 17th century. In the 1880s, a large historicist wing was added to the building, partly one-story, partly two-story. Põlula Basic School is located in the estate."

Built in different eras, however, it works as a whole, after a long restoration, the result should be a gem together with the preserved ruins of the adjacent distillery.
