The two-story mansion at 44 Soviet Street, formerly 34, owned by the Syromyatnikov family, is considered one of the best examples of civil architecture in Syzran. The building is constructed in a style characteristic of the city, combining Art Nouveau and eclecticism. It is the only structure in Syzran with a bay window located at the corner of the facade. The mansion stands out with its expressive volume and soft decor, creating an atmosphere of cozy 'interiority' on the street.
The House of the Syromyatnikovs was built after the fire on July 5, 1906. In the property registration book for the residents of Syzran from 1909, at the corner of Uspensky Lane (now K. Fedin Street) and Bolshaya Street (now Soviet Street) in block 27, it is listed as 'The stone house of Astiy and Nadezhda Afontyeva Syromyatnikov.'
Astiy and Nadezhda Syromyatnikov were the children of the first guild merchant Afontiy Grigorievich Syromyatnikov, who from 1845 engaged in the trade of rye flour and wheat, rented the city mill, and had a turnover capital of up to 170 thousand rubles.
In 1918, the house was nationalized and municipalized. In the early 1930s, it housed the district court. The numbering of the property changed in the 1950s. Today, the building is home to one of the branches of the O.N. Noscova College of Arts and Culture. In 1992, it was included in the list of historical and cultural heritage sites of the Samara region.
