In New York City, a duplex is an apartment that spreads itself over two floors — just imagine having all that room to roam — not to mention the privacy that comes with having two floors. If we captured your interest, here are five NYC duplexes for rent.
We kick off our tour of NYC duplexes with an Upper West Side unit that checks all the boxes. The main living area is at the top of the spiral stairs, with access to a vast, private garden. Outdoor space score! Back inside and down the stairs, you will find the roomy bedroom big enough for a queen-size bed. Brick walls on both floors bring the charm. Balass Ralph is the listing broker.

Pack your bags and head to Bed-Stuy for this pristine duplex. It’s a fully remodeled 2-bedroom/2-bathroom in a classic brownstone. The unit is gorgeous with a capital G. The open kitchen includes all the must-haves, including a dishwasher. Both bedrooms are on the sun-filled lower level. For twice the fun, there’s a deck AND a rear garden. Plus, the unit comes with in-unit laundry and central air. Talk about fully loaded! Sammy Noiman and Natalia Harvey at Compass are the leasing agents.
Here’s a fabulous duplex in Gowanus. The unit was recently remodeled top to bottom: new hardwoods, appliances, and more. The main floor holds the bedroom, living room, kitchen, and full bath. Downstairs is a coveted bonus space and a second bathroom. The lower level makes a great home office or gym. Tammy Shaw, Brian Graham, and Fermin Cruz at Brown Harris Stevens are the leasing agents.

This Stuyvesant Heights duplex is a stellar share! It was remodeled for today’s live/work lifestyle. Five of the six rooms can be used as bedrooms — each one big enough for a queen-size bed and home office! The bonus space downstairs, room six, can be used for whatever you want. Other features include a dishwasher, French doors, new hardwoods, and cool new bathrooms with an industrial vibe. Charlie Le Grice at Highline Residental is the listing agent.

Our last stop is in Bayside. This oversized duplex spans 1,200 square feet. It lives like a house with a semi-private entrance and private outdoor space. The charming unit has Tudor vibes, plus a huge main floor with a renovated kitchen and dishwasher. This central Queens neighborhood is convenient to the LIRR, parks, and more. Worth a look!
