Description

Gracious and elegant eight rooms at the Brisbane House- a 1929 treasure located on Fifth Avenue's Museum Mile. Grand proportions and picture-perfect verdant vistas are the hallmark of this distinctive apartment. A dramatic entry foyer and large gallery welcome you to a perfectly proportioned living room positioned length-wise along Fifth Avenue with a remarkable six arched windows, a wood burning fireplace and room for multiple seating areas. Adjacent to the living room is a formal dining room over twenty-two feet long, also facing the Park which will accommodate many guests in comfort. Its northern wall is graced with an exquisite fine artist-painted landscape depicting the Harlem Meer at the turn of the 20th century. A true eat-in, newly renovated kitchen with a charming banquette, professional appliances, honed Calcutta marble workspaces and crisp painted custom cabinetry will ensure that all meal preparation, and casual dining will be a delight. Off the kitchen service corridor is a handsome study with full bath, and a staff room ideal as a pantry and service space with a vented washer/dryer.

The bedroom wing consists of three large bedrooms along a private hall and two full baths (formerly three.) The master suite contains a sparkling new bath of truly sybaritic pleasure. An indulgent soaking tub, separate steam shower and masterful craftsmanship and meticulous tilework create a soothing and restorative escape.

With high ceilings, solid plaster walls, architectural interest, and beautifully maintained French-polished original inlaid oak floors throughout, this handsome apartment embodies the best of classical pre-war New York architecture.

1215 Fifth Avenue, nestled among the finest museums in the world, was designed by the accomplished firm of Schultze and Weaver- noted architects of such Fifth Avenue landmarks as the Pierre, the Sherry Netherland and Park Avenues Waldorf Astoria. Brisbane House is named in honor of it
