From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Industrial Heritage Meets Modern Luxury at 51 Jay Street Residence 2C is being offered as either an unfurnished or furnished 6-12 month rental inside one of DUMBO's most significant conversions: the landmark-protected "Daylight Factory," reimagined by ODA New York. This two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home is flooded with southern light, with wall-to-wall exposure, soaring ceilings, and an oversized living room made for entertaining. Industrial grandeur and contemporary design work together here. Oversized casement windows keep things pin-drop quiet in the middle of vibrant DUMBO. Fumed oak herringbone floors run underfoot, and the open chef's kitchen is as functional as it is stylish, with La Rochelle Gris marble countertops, Aster Cucine cabinetry, and a premium Gaggenau appliance package. You'll also find a marble powder room for guests, central heating and cooling, and an in-unit washer/dryer. Custom walnut millwork runs throughout, and the primary suite has an in-wall television. The king-sized primary suite is a true retreat, with a custom walk-in closet and an ensuite bath finished in marble, lacquered cabinetry, and copper accents. The second bedroom is a suite in its own right, with an ensuite marble bath and generous closet space. The building delivers the full white-glove experience: a dramatic double-height lobby with an attendant, a full fitness center, and a landscaped rooftop terrace with an outdoor kitchen, a fireplace, and spectacular Manhattan skyline views. With the waterfront and world-class dining close by, 51 Jay Street is where Brooklyn history meets elevated living. Schedule your private viewing today!
