Description

Welcome to 39 Pearl Street - a lovingly maintained industrial piece of art in the heart of DUMBO.

This sprawling 2,970-square-foot loft embodies the essence of DUMBO's historical past while embracing the creativity and modernity that define Brooklyn today. Original timber beams, 9'3" ceilings with exposed piping, oversized windows, exposed brick walls and concrete floors, all come together to tell the story of a building born in the 1880s and reborn for contemporary living. Currently set up with an expansive, free-flowing living, cooking and dining space with 5 bedrooms + a windowed home-office, and two newly renovated bathrooms - the flexible floor plan allows a discerning owner the ability to keep the space as-is or bring their architect and designer and create something special that reflects their own vision.

Originally part of the Masury Paint Works whose pioneering ready-made paint cans changed the face of American industry, 39 Pearl stands as a cornerstone of DUMBO's industrial heritage. Its slow-burning mill construction, denticulated cornice, and austere brick facade make it a defining landmark of the neighborhood's historic district. Today, it remains a place where history and creativity converge-an enduring emblem of Brooklyn's ingenuity.

Outside your door is a neighborhood that embraces modern sensibility while preserving its" historic past. Newly restored Belgian Brick lined streets provide a beautiful path through world-class dining, a plethora of art galleries and studios, and stunning waterfront views from one of the most beautiful and well-maintained parks in NYC - The Brooklyn Bridge Park.

39 Pearl Street Unit 4R is truly a rare offering we are delighted to share with you.

Yes, there is an elevator! And yes, the maintenance is $1,586 per month.
