The "Uzkoe" estate, formerly owned by Prince P.N. Trubetskoy, is located in the Yasenevo district, which is part of the Southwestern Administrative Okrug of Moscow. It is situated at the sources of the Chertanovka River.

The history of the estate dates back to the 17th century. During the Polish intervention, the Moscow government began selling vast lands south of the capital to encourage settlement. In 1691, Maxim Fedorovich Streshnev, a relative of Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich Romanov, took advantage of this opportunity. He purchased several wastelands from the treasury and private owners, including "the wasteland of Voztsy, Tikhiy Stan, and the village of Uzkoe." At that time, Uzkoe was a small settlement, but later Streshnev made it his estate.

The main building of the estate, two stories high, has a disproportionate appearance due to the two side wings being connected by galleries. The ceremonial part with a stone terrace and colonnade faces west, where lawns and flowerbeds descend to the ponds.

The house had three terraces, one of which was covered and decorated with plants and flowers from greenhouses. The greenhouses were dedicated to various plants: one for peaches, another for rare fruits and flowers, and a third for roses. On the other side of the house was an open terrace with columns and laurel trees. The covered terrace was furnished as a living room with a sofa, tables, and chairs. A balcony on this side of the house led to the garden by wooden steps, where one could rest after meals.

About fifty years ago, one could encounter many grass snakes on the paths of the parterre. The ponds were clean and deep. On both sides of the main building was a linden park, transitioning into birch alleys.

The Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God in "Uzkoe" was the spiritual center of the estate for two centuries. Over the years, the estate was owned by representatives of famous Russian families: Golitsyns, Gagarins, Streshnevs, Obolenskys, Neelovs, Tolstoys, and Ogins-Pleshcheevs.

According to legend, Napoleon observed the retreating troops leaving Moscow via the Kaluga road from the bell tower of the church. Napoleon stayed in "Uzkoe" for several days, which spared the estate from the fate of neighboring devastated manors.

The estate is also associated with the philosopher Vladimir Sergeyevich Solovyov, who often visited here with his friends, the Trubetskoy brothers. He passed away in "Uzkoe" on July 31, 1900, and this place became a pilgrimage site for his admirers.

Today, the territory of the estate houses the "Uzkoe" sanatorium of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
