Vacation Like Gatsby on This Historic 500-Acre Fairy Tale Estate

Vacation Like Gatsby on This Historic 500-Acre Fairy Tale Estate and get away from it all and vacation like a Standard Oil heir at this gorgeous country estate, open to the public for the first time since its pre-WWI war conception.

Steeped in wealthy history, this former vacation home, built in the early 1900s by New York's most famous equestrians (and heirs of a Standard Oil founder and Rockefeller partner), has been meticulously maintained for decades. The view of the surrounding 500 acres overlooking the Butternut Valley provides a peaceful retreat from the city and an amazing backdrop for New York's most grandiose weddings. Whether you're looking to bring your family together for a reunion or to hold the classiest of weddings, Centennial Farms Manor is the most prestigious place in upstate New York to do both.

Each guest suite (part of the sleeping rooms) has a working fireplace, high-thread-count linens, private bathroom and French doors leading to balconies. Other bedrooms have privacy and shared bathrooms. Imagine enjoying a rich cappuccino in the courtyard each morning while the birds sing and the horses graze in pastures as far as the eye can see.

Take a dip in the totally refurbished 20'x40' swimming pool, go for a hike and photograph a number of our property's small waterfalls, play some croquet or lawn games, or roast dinner over an open fire. Peruse the history of the house, enjoy a good book by lamp light, or feast on a gourmet meal prepared in our huge kitchen. When evening embers glow dimmer, you can reflect on a glamorous day in the most beautiful place on Earth with a cocktail in front of one of the 10 fireplaces.

Your room is spacious, inviting and private. Guest suites have private baths and soft, cushy linens to snuggle into. What could be better?

Contact us today and plan your own fairy tale retreat in New York.

old house charm

It's hard to review this house because despite the many negatives, my family loved it. There are 17 of us ranging from 4-66. We have been vacationing together for 15yr in various states and landscapes (beaches, lakes, countryside). This is an old house in need of many repairs. The kitchen ceiling by the fridge dripped every now and then, the plaster in the living room ceiling had an area that crumbled onto the floor every day. The house is packed with stuff! China, crystal, pictures, books, lamps, and misc items. There are cobwebs filled with bugs in kitchen, surfaces that haven't been wiped off in many weeks. There are 2 fridges, both dirty as well as the ovens. When I wiped up some spilled water on kitchen floor, it was clear the floors have not been mopped in a long time. That being said, the house is huge! So much room for us all. The bathrooms were clean. Pool is old but big and clean enough. We had such fun being able to play volleyball, kickball, cornhole outside. The view is breathtaking. Keep in mind there is no A/C but lots of fans. The charm of the house and the grounds is what made us love our stay. It would have been great if the porches had the screens put back on and if so many of the windows and patio doors were not screwed closed, we could have used the breeze.

Incredible Getaway

The house was beautiful and even bigger than we expected. The grounds around the house (sheltered patio, fire pit, pool, etc.) were a delightful addition to our group’s stay as well. The host was very nice and made the check in and check out process very easy. The only issue we faced was that the house got very warm as the house is not air conditioned, though there were a few floor AC units and fans available. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely return in the future.

Family Reunion weekend

Our family enjoyed staying at Centennial Farm for a long weekend. There were lots of places for small gatherings, conversations, card games as well as a nice large kitchen and dining room for when we all were together. We made use of the pool as well as the fire pit and enjoyed the views across the valley to the farms and fields of golden rod in bloom. For a quiet, serene stay in an interesting and evocative manor house, this place fit the bill!

Family Christmas weekend

We very much enjoyed our family time. The property was very spacious and accommodated all our needs for a large family gathering. The kitchen was well equipped. The Christmas decorations in the house were beautifully done and much appreciated. The house setting was secluded and provide a lovely view. We very much enjoyed our weekend and can recommend this property for other to enjoy.

Great home for a family get together.

This is a 100 year old very large home. It was a great place for a family get together. The kitchen has every thing you would want in a kitchen. Very large rooms for kitchen, dining and living. Outdoors the view of the valley is really great. There are some maintenance issues mostly due to the age of the building but nothing that will effect your stay.

Great Historic Mansion

Our large family group of 22 people rented this wonderful property for our annual Thanksgiving reunion. We loved the house with its HUGE & spectacular living and dining rooms which allowed plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen is massive & very well equipped with a professional range, 2 refrigerators and plenty of china & tableware to accommodate a big group. The 12 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms are perfect for a large group. The beds were very comfortable & there were plenty of towels provided. The house itself was surprisingly warm for a house this old & there was plenty of hot water! If you like antique furniture, china, and other collectibles, you will love this place. The wifi is adequate - its strong in the parlor, living room and dining room - but weak elsewhere - a router/transmitter of the 2nd floor would help. The hosts provided a roll of bathroom tissue in every bathroom & a new roll of paper towel in the kitchen - but beyond this we had to purchase our own. Since the town is ~20 min drive, it would be great if additional supplies of these were provided. One small issue we had was that on a couple of days the water in some of the showers ran brown initially, but it cleared up if you ran it for a while. Perhaps the sediment filter in the water line from the well needs to be checked. This is a great house with a LOT of character, located in a peaceful location with wonderful views of the mountains. Albert (host), and Larisa were most helpful and friendly.

Fun house, great times, best large home in the area for the Oneonta All-Star Village tournament

We really enjoyed our stay at the Centennial Farms mansion. Amazing layout, with lots of public spaces, and a meandering floor plan that pulls you in, making you feel like you were a part of all the decadent parties of times past. It's an incredible set-up for a large amount of people. We were a group of 20+ adults, and there was tons of space for everyone. A couple nights our kids joined us, before and after their baseball tournament, and even with 12 kids added in, it still felt extremely spacious. Outside, the grounds are beautiful, with a pool, multiple patios, gorgeous vistas, a firepit, and tons of big open grassy areas. We stayed at the home since our sons were playing in a baseball tournament at All-Star Village in Oneonta. The home was about 30-35 mins away. The owners and house manager were very nice. They all seemed very hands on although we didn't have many needs. The house was set up in a way that was extremely intuitive. It is a vintage home, and with that definitely comes character, quirks, and some deferred maintenance. It didn't really bother us though, as the spaces were so expanse and detailed. Lots of charming antique furniture throughout but nothing inaccessible or uninviting. There were some small broken windows, and the railings on the main staircase through the home were more for show than practical use. One bathroom had a tub that wasn't working, other bathrooms had some fixture cracks. Throughout the home there's paint and wallpaper peeling, wall marks/cracks, and from some bedrooms there were balconies that were not allowed to be walked upon due to structural safety. It can definitely benefit from a good, solid overhaul. And as we looked at it all, several in our group being in real estate development, we recognized the gargantuan task it must be to manage a home and property so large and detailed. Even with the imperfections, we all still enjoyed the grandeur of the space, the comfort of the furnishings, and the particularly well equipped kitchen and dining areas. Every night was spent preparing meals and drinks together, eating as a group, and then heading outside to the patio with fireplace or firepit by the rolling hills vista. The last morning as everyone began to depart, after staying together for a week in this amazing home, felt like the last day of a beloved childhood sleep-away camp. Friends had bonded and shared such great times throughout the entire property that we were all very sad to leave.

Cooperstown Allstar Village Stay

What an amazing property and super fun family and friends time! We had multiple families stay here while our sons played at Cooperstown Allstar village. The village is approximately 20-25 minutes from door to door. The house was everything we were hoping and more! The photos don’t do it justice. It’s such an awesome house with great character! We truly enjoyed our stay here. Al was super attentive when we had some strong weather come in and we lost power. He came right up to the house and supplied us with candles. The power was restored quickly and we were back on track. I honestly can’t put into words how beautiful the view is from this home. This is a perfect place to stay with large groups. We had lots of kids there of various ages and not one time did they complain of boredom or not having anything to do. I loved the eclectic decor of the house! It totally added to the charm of this place. We have another son coming through Cooperstown in 2 years and we plan to secure this place again!

Undersold, overdelivered!

We needed a place that could accommodate a group of 25 students over fall break and came across this listing. We crossed our fingers and hoped it was as good as it seemed--but it was better! The bedrooms were comfy and cute, and there were five or so extra roll-away beds that we could use so no one had to be on an air mattress. Lots of bathrooms meant there weren't lines in the morning. Water pressure and heat was great. There were many extra towels and sheets if needed. The house is quite large and we never felt cramped even with 25 of us there, despite that it was a rainy weekend. There was plenty of space to spread out and read or play games. The couches are comfy and we loved having a fire going in the large fireplace. The dining room was large enough to accommodate all of us for dinner. We cooked out on the fire pit one night. The kitchen is spacious which is crucial for preparing large meals. One way they undersold the listing is that they don't tell you how many kitchen supplies they have--there's a pantry full of appliances. For instance, we were able to use a food processor and a waffle maker. They have all sorts of utensils and more dish ware than you should need. The property is gorgeous (the photos don't do it justice) and the students went for daily walks. A small waterfall is a mere hundred feet from the house. A couple things to be aware of: this is an old house, and thus a bit quirky. For instance many of the bedrooms are connected by a bathroom, but the locks only work from one side. So for some of the bathrooms or bedrooms you cannot completely secure the locks. This wasn't an issue for us, though. The wifi is not great and doesn't reach the kitchen very well, but it was adequate for students to submit assignments. They were able to download a movie on their iPad and then play it on the tv. The piano is not tuned. We did run into issues with the major kitchen appliances: the two refrigerators did not get very cold at all, and the oven knobs were not working correctly. Only one of the dishwashers was working. Once we figured out how to use pliers to work the oven we were able to use it again (though the convection did not work). None of the food went bad in the fridges. I imagine these are things they will remedy, however. The host was very responsive via text while we were there and had a repairman come out. He also brought us a shovel and other items we requested. We hope we get to return in the future!

Cooperstown All Star Village Stay

We had a wonderful stay! We were there for a week of baseball tournaments at All Star Village and had a group of five families. We had plenty of room to spread out, enjoyed relaxing on the porch each night after being at the fields all day and had a great family style meal with all our boys on the last night! It’s about a 25 minute drive to ASV. Larissa was great and was very quick to respond to us when we had questions. The house has a lot of charm! Would highly recommend!

We are the first non-heirs to own this property. We purchased the property, several other structures (Butler house, Carriage House, Laundry house, Farm House, Village Farms complex, etc.) and over 550 acres because we are crazy about horses and history. We've tried to maintain the charm of yesteryear while providing updates, also. At Centennial Farms Manor, it's all about enjoying the rewards from a life of working hard. Cheers!

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

Construction began on Centennial Farms Manor in 1914, was placed on hold due to the War, then completed between 1917 and 1920. The widow of Al Bostwick, son of Standard Oil millionaire Jabez Bostwick, remarried attorney Fitch Gilbert, Jr. and they spent summers here, vacationing with her children. One of her children, George Herbert 'Pete' Bostwick, is the most legendary polo player of all time, as well as a tennis champ and a steeplechase winner. We still have the Butler's house, the Carriage house, the laundry house, and the original 'Village Farms' farm-house and barns. We have our Thoroughbred boarding and breeding facility across from the old polo fields. The history of this place is phenomenal. We are the only owners since the Bostwick/Gilbert family to own the place and we have tried to keep the historical charm intact. Please, be our guests!

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Solitude. If you'd like to dance through the acres of soft green lawn in your jammies, have at it. You will only have to share the serenity with the deer, the birds, and the trickling brook just across the lawn. Enjoy some peace.
