It is known that in the 60s of the 19th century on the territory of the existing house was a fairly large estate, which belonged to the nobleman Luka Ulyashenkov. The manor included two wooden dwelling houses with outbuildings and a stone barn. It is interesting that the plan of house No. 35 completely coincides with the plan of the above-mentioned stone barn of 1859-1860, thus, the existing residential building appeared in the second half of the 19th century directly on the site of the former farm building as a result of its reconstruction and adaptation.
