Layout and construction
The farmstead is arranged as an enclosed four-winged brick complex that was originally fully encircled by a rectangular moat. Of this moat, the west and south sides and most of the east side survive today. The two-storey farmhouse is divided into five bays, its windows altered over time. The equally two-storey side wings feature round-arched windows on the upper floor.

The Gleumeshof is privately owned and not open to the public – it can only be viewed from outside.
