The Empire style building was completed in 1823-1824 as tradeswoman Nadezhda Lobanova's home. Lobanova lived here until 1835; subsequent owners also belonged to the merchant estate. Pugovkin family, who owned the house since 1859, altered the facade in line with eclecticism of the period.

Before Embassy of Argentina, the building housed the Embassy of Rwanda.[3] Embassy of Argentina moved here in 2007[chronology citation needed] from the historical List house in Glazovsky Lane.
