This house modestly sits at the intersection of 2nd Vysheslavtsev Lane and Obraztsova Street. Surprisingly, the building looks almost the same as it did a hundred years ago. The exact color of the house in the past is unknown, but it may have been yellow, as it is now. The number of floors has remained the same: originally, the house was two stories tall and built of stone. Only a few details have changed: additional doors that opened onto the corner of the then-Bakhmetevskaya Street and 2nd Vysheslavtsev Lane have disappeared, leaving a blank wall, as well as a small balcony with a lace railing above them.

The beautiful arched panoramic window on the facade remains in place and continues to adorn the house, just like a hundred years ago, but the entrance beneath it is now bricked up. Previously, residents used this entrance to access rental apartments, as the house was intended for income.

The exact year of construction is unknown, but in 1904, the property with buildings, including this house, was acquired by Daniil Meer Vaintrub, a candidate of law from the law faculty of Moscow University. He did not live here himself: the house was used for renting apartments and a beer shop on the first floor. Due to the small size of the house, only three families could live there, but comfortably, as the apartments had 3-4 rooms, not including the kitchen and hallway.

Even today, the layout of the building seems modern. The house was connected to sewage, and each floor had two water closets. The walls and ceilings were plastered, the floors were laid with oak parquet, and the grand staircase was made of Podolsk and Tarusa stone. Dutch, Russian tiled, and Utermark stoves were used for heating. Interestingly, by 1914, the house was connected to the telephone network. Shortly before the revolution in 1916, the entire property, along with the house, passed to a new owner, hereditary honorary citizen Ivan Koreshkov.
