The Talyzin estate was once located at Prechistenka Street, house No. 32. In 1812, it burned down, and Pavel Okhotnikov built a new estate for himself in its place of the cornet guard. After Okhotnikov, the owners of the estate until 1915 were merchants Pegova. They rented it out to the family of teachers Sofia Arsenyeva and Lev Polivanov, who opened private gymnasiums for girls and boys here. That is why this house is also called Polivanov Gymnasium.

The stables, a carriage shed, wings and household services of the estate formed a semicircular courtyard — a circumference. Local historians believe that these semicircular one-story stables are the only ones of its kind in Moscow. In the 30s of the last century, they had a wooden second floor, which is located on the arcade of white columns. These buildings have been adapted for living quarters.

Inside the courtyard there is a destroyed house church. From the beginning of the 80s of the XX century to 2009, one of the rooms housed a creative workshop of the restorer, art critic, historian and writer Savva Yamshchikov and other artists. Creative workshops in one of the semicircular houses are still located, and Muscovites live in the other. Therefore, there is a bohemian atmosphere here on the one hand, and on the other hand, the atmosphere of a communal apartment.

It is more convenient to enter this semicircular courtyard from the corner of Maly Levshinsky Lane and Prechistenka Lane.
