In 1777, during the General Survey, the owner of the estate in Pluskovo was Nikita Alexeyevich Muromtsev. The estate included a wooden manor house and a formal garden. In the early 19th century, the estate was inherited by his son, Major Alexey Nikitich Muromtsev (1769, 1838). Under the new owner, a Christmas church was built, landscaping work was carried out in the garden and park, and a pond was dug near the barn. The main house, the wing to the north of it, and the outbuildings underwent reconstruction.
After A. N. Muromtsev's death, 115 household workers were employed at the estate. The estate passed to his wife, Praskovya Semyonovna Muromtseva, and son Arkadiy Alexeyevich. In 1850, the area of the estate and garden was 15 desyatins, with 21 household workers and a gardener on the premises. By 1860, A. A. Muromtsev became the sole owner.
In the 1870s and 80s, Pluskovo passed to the Deryuzhinsky family. In the last third of the 19th century, a dairy was built to the west of the main house, and in 1905, a parish school was opened to the west of the barn. By the end of the 19th century, the estate, valued at over 50 thousand rubles, was owned by the widow of a collegiate assessor, Ekaterina Nikolaevna Deryuzhinskaya, the wife of lawyer Fyodor Timofeyevich Deryuzhinsky. Until 1917, the estate was managed by her heirs.
After the revolution, a commune was organized in Pluskovo, followed by the establishment of a collective farm. In the early 21st century, the estate ensemble includes the church, wing, barn, stable, dairy, school, garden, and ponds. The outbuildings have been converted into residential houses, the former stable houses a shop, and the building of the former parish school operates as a secondary school. Some old linden plantings along the central road to the church have partially survived. The estate park, covering 3 hectares, was declared a regional natural monument in 1995. However, according to other sources, the park was cut down in the late 20th century, and the ponds in it have overgrown.
