There is a new rental community on the waterfront in South Amboy that is injecting new life into the city. Just three months after opening, Station Bay has surged past the 50% leased milestone, according to a Monday announcement from developer BNE Real Estate Group.
The collection of 291 luxury residences and over 37,000 square feet of amenities and social spaces is transforming the area of Middlesex County. The community is the first phase to open as part of a $500 million multiphase redevelopment project that encompasses a total reimagination and revitalization of South Amboy’s Raritan Bay waterfront.
BNE also announced the celebration of more milestones, such as the opening of the community’s outdoor pool and private cabanas, and the groundbreaking of a new public ferry terminal in South Amboy that will offer direct service to Manhattan.
“We’re excited about the strong leasing velocity at Station Bay and the number of residents who are already living here,” Jonathan Schwartz, partner at BNE Real Estate Group, the prominent New Jersey development firm behind the project, said. “We’ve been big believers in the enormous untapped potential of South Amboy and take pride in the fact that our community is actively transforming the waterfront into a vibrant new residential destination that will be enhanced by the addition of ferry service to New York City.”
Station Bay’s residences all offer generously appointed living spaces and condo-quality features, including 9-foot ceiling heights, plank flooring, custom-outfitted modular closets and an in-home washer/dryer. Chef-inspired kitchens impress with classic white cabinetry, gray quartz countertops, full-height tile backsplashes, brushed nickel hardware, stainless steel appliances, side-by-side refrigerators, gas ranges and wine storage. Select residences also include private outdoor space and water views.
BNE Real Estate Group helped shape the community’s lifestyle experience with plentiful amenities and social spaces. They include a lobby lounge with coffee bar, multiple entertainment lounges, a Matrix fitness center with separate yoga and spin studios, a coworking lounge with private meeting rooms and a smart café, a multisport simulator, movie theater, arcade and game lounge, kids’ playroom, a pet spa, dog run and more.
Outside, residents enjoy access to two courtyards that include a swimming pool with private cabanas, fire pits, an outdoor bar, private barbecue and dining areas, games and lawn and garden lounge areas. Covered parking and 24/7 maintenance are also available on-site.
Located off of Radford Ferry Road, Station Bay is situated just steps from downtown South Amboy’s shops, bars, restaurants, and entertainment options. It is walking distance to the South Amboy train station and the soon-to-open commuter ferry terminal with direct service to Manhattan. Residents can also walk to the South Amboy beach or the Raritan Bay Waterfront Park.
Monthly rental rates start at $2,125, with limited-time grand opening specials now offering up to two months free and more. Immediate occupancy is available.
