Princess Trubetskaya, known for her beauty and intellect, married Count A.S. Stroganov in 1769, who was 11 years her senior. Alexander Sergeyevich was a wealthy man and a patron; his collection of paintings became the foundation of the Hermitage's art collection. The couple traveled to Paris, where they met Voltaire. Voltaire, enchanted by the countess, said: "Ah, madam, what a beautiful day today: I have seen the sun and you!" In Paris, they had a son, Pavel, and a daughter, Sofia. However, upon returning to Russia in 1779, the young countess fell in love with the former favorite of Catherine II, Ivan Nikolaevich Rimsky-Korsakov. The handsome Rimsky-Korsakov was removed from the court and moved to Moscow, where Stroganova followed him, leaving her husband and son. Their daughter Sofia went with her mother. Stroganov took the situation philosophically, granted his wife a divorce, and acquired a mansion on Tverskoy Boulevard near Korsakov's house.

Rimsky-Korsakov and Stroganova lived together for their entire lives, although they could not officially marry. They had two children: Vasily Nikolaevich (Ivanovich) Ladomirskiy (1786, 1847) and Varvara Nikolaevna (Ivanovna) Ladomirskaia (1785, 1840). The children bore a double patronymic and a different surname, as they were considered merely the wards of their parents. According to legend, the surname was given to them by Catherine II, hinting at children "from the god of love Lado." According to another version, the surname belonged to an extinct Polish family. Nobility for the children was obtained by Rimsky-Korsakov under Paul I.

Vasily inherited his father's house No. 26 and the estate of Bratsevo, while Stroganova's house went to her daughter Varvara, who passed it on to her daughter, Princess Zinaida Ivanovna Narishkina.

Princess Narishkina was married twice, so the estate was first listed under Z.I. Yusupova, then under Z.I. de Chevo. The estate remained in the possession of the Yusupovs and eventually passed to the sole heir of all the family's wealth, Felix Felixovich Yusupov, a prince known as the killer of Rasputin. He did not live in the house, although rumors circulated in Moscow about a treasure supposedly hidden by him during one of his visits.

In the 1870s, the house of Countess de Chevo housed a hydrotherapy establishment run by Dr. Kreizer, approved by the Highest Authority.

The majestic mansion with two wings, attributed to O.I. Bove, stood on the boulevard until the 1930s when it was demolished during the reconstruction of the even side of Tverskoy Boulevard along with the City Governor's house. Only the wing remains on the boulevard, which now houses the restaurant "Bublik."
