According to archival documents from 1843, the facade of the house underwent significant changes compared to its original appearance. The stucco decor was removed, and the window openings of the mezzanine and first floor were converted into doorways. The columns of the portico became thinner and were adorned with carved capitals. By 1868, the main facade lost its six-column portico, and the window openings were decorated with horizontal cornices or sandriks. In November 1896, the estate was purchased by the family of railway magnates von Meck. Subsequently, the house changed hands several times, with new owners remodeling it at their discretion.

By the second half of the 20th century, the building was in a state of disrepair. Photographs from that time show that the facade had significantly deteriorated, and the mezzanine was missing plaster and a balcony. During the restoration in the 1980s, it was decided to return the building to its 1834 appearance, using archival drawings. As a result, the main facade once again featured a portico and stucco, the number of columns increased to six, and the mezzanine was plastered and complemented with a balcony.

There is a version that the main character of Mikhail Bulgakov's novel "The Master and Margarita" lived in the basement of this mansion. The writer himself lived nearby for a short time with his wife Lyubov Belozerskaya, in house number 9. At the corner of Obukhov Lane (renamed Chisty in 1922) and Prechistenka stood the famous Kalabukhov house from the story "Heart of a Dog," where Professor Preobrazhensky lived. In Chisty Lane, Bulgakov also wrote the play "Days of the Turbins" and the story "Fatal Eggs." Therefore, this lane and its surroundings are often mentioned in Moscow guidebooks as "Bulgakov's places."
