The estate is located on the site of the former village of Pod'yolki. In the mid-17th century, the Church of the Intercession of the Mother of God was built here, and the area began to be called the Village of Pokrovskoye.

In 1664, Pokrovskoye was acquired by Rodion Matveyevich Streshnev, a relative of the first wife of Tsar Mikhail Romanov.

The stone house was built after the Manifesto on the granting of freedom to the Russian nobility during the tenure of General-Field Marshal Pyotr Ivanovich Streshnev, who held the position of governor of Kyiv. It was a typical house of the Elizabethan era with 10 rooms and about 130 paintings. Under Pyotr Ivanovich, the ancestral estate expanded and revealed its full beauty.

After the death of Pyotr Ivanovich Streshnev, the estate passed to his daughter, Elizabeth Petrovna Streshneva, who married General Fyodor Ivanovich Glebov. In 1803, she received the right to be called Glebova-Streshneva. Elizabeth Petrovna remodeled the house to her taste, making it more austere and elegant. The house was adjacent to a garden with ponds, and six greenhouses were also built.

The last owner of the estate, Yevgenia Fyodorovna Shakhovskaya-Glebova-Streshneva, significantly changed the appearance of the estate with her extensions. In the 1880s, she decided to reconstruct it in the style of a medieval castle. According to the designs of architects A. Rezanov and K. Tersky, red brick wings in the neo-Russian style were erected on the sides of the house. In 1889 and 1900, a powerful fence with towers made of red brick was built around the estate according to the project of F. Kolbe and A. Popov. Later, two large wooden towers and several small ones were added above the central part of the house.

After the revolution, the estate and nearby dachas, where Karamzin, actor Vasily Luzhsky, and doctors Botkin and Bers lived, were transformed into a sanatorium for the Central Committee. A museum and a rest house for pilots were also located here.

In the spring of 1992, a serious fire occurred in the main house, destroying the roof, mezzanine, and part of the second floor.

Currently, project documentation has been developed and approved for the preservation and adaptation of the main house of the estate and the greenhouse. Restoration work will begin here soon.
