Вінницький будинок одеського купця грецького походження Олександра Кумбарі розташований на території маєтку, придбаного ним у 1894 році. На прізвище господаря ця місцевість на високому березі Південного Бугу з тих пір зветься Кумбари.

Будівля в стилі модерн побудована в 1913 році за проєктом архітектора Григорія Артинова для дружини Кумбарі. При будівництві вперше у Вінниці було застосовано технологію бетонної заливки.

Від будинку до берега річки спускаються довгі сходи, спроєктовані тим самим архітектором, генерал-лейтенантом військово-інженерної служби. Місцеві жителі називають її "Потьомкінськими сходами" за аналогією зі знаменитими одеськими сходами.

До останнього часу в будівлі розміщувалася дитяча поліклініка.
