The station was opened in 1901[1] and named after the initiator of its opening, Count Sergey Sheremetev. The owner of the forest lands through which the tracks of the Savyolovsky line of the Moscow Railway were laid in 1900, planned to derive income from leasing his land plots for dacha construction in the settlement that developed around.

Travel time from Savyolovsky station is 35 minutes and is part of the Moscow Central Diameters, line MCD-1.[2]

The station consists of two side platforms connected by a deck. To the west of the platform there is a non-electrified access road from Lobnya station to the Paveltsevskaya oil depot and is used only for freight traffic.

Immediately to the north of the platform there is a double-track branch from the main line of the Savyolovsky direction to the Sheremetyevo Airport railway station, the route to the airport goes along the overpass to the north above the main line. The branch is located within the boundaries of Lobnya station, the entrance signal for the II main line is located south of the platform, that is, the eastern platform is also within the boundaries of the station; the entrance signal for the I track (the wrong one) is located north of the platform, the western platform is already on the Lobnya - Mark section.
