According to the documents of 1883, the town estate belonged to the timber merchant Yevgraf Ivanovich Chesnochkov.

In 1918, this building housed the headquarters of the Red Guard of the Romanovo-Borisoglebsky district. And in the stormy year 1918, a small motor ship "Comrade Peasant" with 30 Red Army soldiers on board set off from this building to provide possible support during the uprising in the city of Yaroslavl. Ilya Tutaev, a 20-year-old Red Army soldier, was killed 18 km from the city at Lopatin's Yaroslavl village. Ilya Tutaev is buried 6 km from the city in a churchyard near the village of Kupriyantsevo. On November 7, 1918, 13 people gathered at a meeting in honor of the anniversary of the October Revolution. There are 27 issues on the agenda of the meeting, one of them is the renaming of the city. Suggestions for the name of the city: Leninsk, Volodarsk, October Revolution, Spartak-Kommunar and others. The winning point of view was to name the city in honor of the deceased Red Army soldier I. Tutaev.

During the Civil War, Fyodor Ivanovich Tolbukhin, later Marshal of the Soviet Union and Hero of the Soviet Union, visited this building. Later, the house was used as an elite housing stock.

To the left of the house, a part of the brick wall and a small one-story red brick building have been preserved. Perhaps it was previously used as a janitor's room. Dvornitskaya was used as a housing stock in Soviet times. For a long time, Ivan Petrovsky, nicknamed "Vanya Utia", lived in this room — a thief's authority until 1917 and after. His wife and his wife's mother, an old woman nicknamed "Daria Krivoskulaya," lived with him. Daria's trade was begging, but she only did it on Sundays. In beggar's clothes, she sat at the front porch of the Sabaneyevs' house (Ushakova, 88). Another beggar could not occupy this place, he received a worthy rebuff.
