The year of construction is visible through wall anchors above the ground-floor windows. Later, the property passed into the possession of the Busch family, after whom the current street Busshook is named. The Buschs also provided bailiffs for the Prince-Bishopric of Münster and the Asbeck Abbey. At the beginning of the 20th century, Haus von Hülst served as the official and residential seat of the then bailiff von Hülst.
