grammar - Can I connect an adjective with a noun using "and"?

Is the following sentence grammatically correct?



"Gandalf is a wizard and brave"



Each of "Gandalf is a wizard" and "Gandalf is brave" sound OK, but connecting the noun and adjective descriptions of Galndalf with the "and" hurts my ear. I am not a native English speaker though, and unsure whether connections like that are acceptable in English.
