A Fifth Ave. townhome previously owned by Meryl Streep has come to market. Sold by Ms. Streep in 2005 for $9.1 million, the residence is, a little over a decade later, priced at $28.5 million.

Measuring at 6,585 square feet, and containing five bedrooms and eight baths—including an extraordinary master bath, finished entirely in marble—the home spans five floors, and boasts a rooftop deck with views of the Village, and uptown Manhattan. The building’s brick façade is Greek Revival—neoclassical, but entirely shorn of ornament. The interior is tastefully understated.

The kitchen is a somewhat outdated, but effective blend of warm tones and cold stainless surfaces; although the room is dominated by a gigantic, looming brushed stainless vent hood, the vermillion cabinetry and naturally-finished wide-plank flooring which may be original to the structure, which was completed in 1845. Elsewhere, dark-finished hardwood floors lend a nice contrast to the prevailing whitewash, allowing new owners a blank canvas for their own design plan.

The garden level features a very private flagstone patio and vine-covered trellis, and is accessible through ground-level sliding French doors, as well as a staircase from the second level. There are several fireplaces in the home, one of which graces the generous master bath.

Three-time Academy Award-winner Meryl Streep’s most recent film release was 2016’s Stephen Frears-directed ‘Florence Foster Jenkins.’
