Description

382 Degraw Street is a 20-foot-wide Italianate brownstone which has been masterfully restored. Reimagined with exceptional craftsmanship and reverence for its architectural heritage, this residence seamlessly blends historic grandeur with refined contemporary luxury. Parlor Level Dramatic ceiling heights, width, and depth of this great room establish an immediate sense of scale and elegance. Brilliant light fills this floor with no interior walls to disrupt the openness of the space. Intricate historic plaster detailing which line the walls and ceilings have been meticulously restored, complemented by custom-fabricated moldings that faithfully replicate original profiles.
