The history of the ownership of house 7 on Bolshoy Nikolopeskovsky Lane begins in the early 19th century when it was owned by ensign I. L. Shishkov. In 1809, the new owner, secret advisor A. N. Nikolaeva, completely rebuilt the house. A one-story stone mansion in the Empire style with a central risalit, decorated with an attic and a sculptural composition, was erected on the red line of the lane. The entrance and main entrance were located on the southern side, while to the west, a garden with a small wooden wing adjoined the estate.

Throughout the 19th century, the plot was developed with utility buildings, the garden disappeared, and the estate gradually transformed into an income property. In the middle of the century, a stone residential wing was added to the main house from the courtyard side, and the facades of the house acquired an eclectic appearance.

In 1883, banker S. E. Strelkov expanded the property by building a two-story stone house adjacent to the existing wing on the new plot. In 1903, architect A. F. Meissner dismantled the wooden structures and completely reconstructed the estate house into an income property. He added another floor to the house and wing, expanding it on the southern side. A passage arch appeared in place of the old entrance to the courtyard. The facade was designed in an eclectic style with classical decor, the central element of which was a rusticated risalit with a portal topped with a sandrik and a stucco cartouche. The windows were adorned with triangular sandriks, keystones, and stucco garlands. The main rooms of the apartment, which occupied the entire house, were located on the second floor, while utility and living spaces were on the first. The children's rooms, kitchen, and servants' quarters were located in the courtyard wing.

At the same time, a one-story wing was built, housing a carriage house, stables, cellars, laundry, chicken coop, and cow shed. In the 1930s, it became two stories and was connected to the main house. In the 1970s, part of the wing was dismantled, forming a single structure. The modern property is an L-shaped two-story building with the main facade along the red line of the lane.

After the revolution, 31 people lived in the building, likely used as communal housing. The 1925 address book indicates that former owners lived in apartment 1: Semyon Yevdokimovich Strelkov, who worked in the Mosfinotdel and the Moscow City Society of Mutual Credit, and Alexander Semyonovich Strelkov, an art historian and specialist in Central Asian art, an employee of the Museum of Fine Arts. A. S. Strelkov was convicted of 'espionage' and executed in 1938. In the early 1930s, S. E. Strelkov moved with his family to Kaloshin Lane, house 6.

After the residents were relocated, various organizations occupied the house, and it underwent multiple renovations, resulting in the loss of interiors, except for some fragments. Currently, the house houses the Veterans Council of the Arbat District.
