Welcome to Catskill Park Manor
Privately sited on a hilltop with sweeping views and frontage on the Neversink River, this Swedish farmhouse in Claryville, NY, is an architectural gem designed by renowned architect Peter Pennoyer. Commissioned by celebrated author Louis Auchincloss and his wife as a retreat from Fifth Avenue, the home has been featured in numerous publications for its timeless design and cultural significance.
Pennoyer's signature rotunda design anchors the home, rising from the dining room through to the library, which still houses Auchincloss's personal book collection — a rare literary touchstone. The main level offers a seamless blend of elegance and comfort, including a gorgeous living room just off the kitchen, with a wood-burning fireplace and French doors that open to a generous deck and lush gardens overlooking the valley below.
With four bedrooms and four baths, the home exudes warmth, light, and craftsmanship. Every window frames nature, and every room offers quiet sophistication. Total privacy, architectural pedigree, and rich literary history make this a truly exceptional offering in the Catskills — a sanctuary of beauty and story on 131 private acres.
Step outside to fly fish on the renowned Neversink, swim, splash, or kayak the clear waters-all just outside your door. Surrounded by pristine woods and total privacy, yet close to everything we love about the Catskills, this is a once in a generation offering.
Minutes to Frost Valley YMCA which offers an array of activities for all interests and ages, minutes to world class hiking in the Willowemoc Preserve, Claryville Art Center, local farmers markets, wonderful music venues, breweries and restaurants.
