Whimsical 5-Story Brownstone in Murray Hill

Step into a 19th-century brownstone where whimsy meets grandeur. Nestled in the heart of Manhattan?s Murray Hill, this 5,600 sq. ft. townhouse is a masterpiece of historic charm and creative energy, a venue unlike any other for intimate events, elegant productions, or inspiring brand activations. Built in 1850 and renovated in 1900, our venue reflects a rich architectural evolution, with original wood paneling, classical moldings, and an exquisite Art Nouveau staircase added during its transformation. It carries the legacy of New York?s golden age, now infused with the artistic vision of its current owner. Every corner tells a story?from the ballet-slipper pink walls to the custom Mexican pool tile mosaics in the bathroom. Beyond its classic brownstone fa�ade, this five-story townhouse is an architectural playground of ornate details and grand proportions.
