837 Carlson Road, Craryville, Ny 12521

Occupying a spectacular hilltop setting in Columbia County, 837 Carlson Road encompasses 33.7 private acres with extraordinary panoramic views of the Catskill Mountains and the surrounding countryside. A remarkable landscape of open meadows, rolling pastures, woodlands and a pond, the property offers a rare opportunity to create an entirely new country estate in one of the Hudson Valley’s most beautiful settings.

A long private driveway leads to the elevated building site, where the landscape opens dramatically in every direction. The sense of space and privacy is exceptional, with expansive skies, distant mountains and an ever-changing panorama of light and seasons. It is the sort of setting that is increasingly difficult to find: substantial acreage, extraordinary views and an established approach to a commanding hilltop location.

An existing contemporary glass residence occupies the property’s most prominent position. Built in 2022 and originally conceived as an architecturally ambitious modern retreat, the house has subsequently been found to have construction defects. It is being offered in its present condition, with the expectation that a buyer may elect to demolish the structure and build anew. The asking price reflects these circumstances and represents a significant departure from the property’s previous sale price of 2,358,000 in October 2025.

Also on the property is a substantial two-story barn, approximately 30 by 60 feet, which has undergone improvements including a newer roof, windows and a glass garage door. With its generous proportions and separate utility infrastructure, the barn offers an additional dimension to the property and potential for a variety of future uses, subject to any necessary approvals.

Conveniently located within reach of Hudson, the Berkshires, Copake Lake and Catamount Mountain Resort, the property combines remarkable seclusion with access to some of the region’s most desirable destinations.

For a buyer with the vision to start fresh, 837 Carlson Road presents an unusual opportunity: an extraordinary piece of land, an established hilltop setting and the chance to create a home entirely worthy of its surroundings.
