The property at the corner of Bolshoy Levshinsky and Shtatny (now Kropotkinsky) lanes once formed a single estate with the neighboring Kropotkin property. In the early 18th century, there were three courtyards here: two belonged to minor officials, and the third belonged to Peter I's dwarf, Yakov Iovovich Volkov.

The modern house on this site is a beautiful urban estate built after the fire of 1812. The building's main facade is adorned with a six-column portico, and the absence of stucco gives it a strict classicist form.

Since 1806, the estate, which includes the main house, residential and non-residential wings, and an outbuilding, belonged to Captain B.V. Khvoshchinsky. After the 1812 fire, the estate was restored and divided, and then acquired by Major V.L. Lvov and Captain E.N. Bogdanov. By 1820, both plots had similar developments, and wooden structures were replaced with stone ones. Over time, most of the courtyards transitioned from nobility to merchants and townspeople.

By 1856, the estate was purchased by honorary citizen E.V. Belousova, and in 1885, her heirs sold it to the wife of a personal honorary citizen, V.I. Suchkova. Under her, work was done to remodel the main entrance and portico on the main facade, and a solid stone fence with gates was built along Bolshoy Levshinsky Lane. All projects were carried out by architect V. Shimanovsky.

In 1890-1891, the wing underwent significant remodeling: large extensions were made from the courtyard side, and the facades were completely updated according to the design of the famous Moscow architect I. Mashkov. From 1901, the house was rented to Mr. Lopatov, and from 1913, to Count Tolstoy.

To this day, the estate has remained largely unchanged, with only the fence altered. It is recognized as a regional cultural heritage site.
