The $2 million “New York State of Mind” house where Billy Joel wrote those well-known lyrics

Billy Joel found himself in a “New York State of Mind” due to this unique feature.

Although the gifted songwriter and pianist never owned this Highland Falls, New York mansion, it was a major source of inspiration for one of his biggest successes. It is now listed for $1,995,000.

Joel penned the well-known song—a kind of love letter to New York—in this exact location, according to the listing data for the nine-bedroom estate.

And according to the New York Post, the Piano Man also penned other tunes from his 1976 album “Turnstiles” at this house, including the appropriately named “Summer, Highland Falls.”

Want a chance to soak up these illustrious vibes? Here’s a look at Joel’s longtime perch.

This 5,788-square-foot estate abounds with regal details from when it was owned by J.P. Morgan and into the years it served as a retreat for the multiplatinum recording artist.

Billed as a “cottage-style” home, the charming mansion was designed by the architects of Peabody & Stearns and features a double-sided fireplace between the main living space and sunny great room.

The all-white kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances and a generous island for prepping and serving. Along with the bedrooms in the main house, the estate also offers a one-bedroom cottage with its own bath, plus a carriage house with three more bedrooms and two baths.

But it’s the great outdoors that truly make this property special. Hard on the banks of the majestic Hudson River, the views from the lawn and patio are spectacular. There’s also a very large pool, beautiful gardens, and mature trees.

Joel’s career is nothing short of legendary and includes 14 albums and more than three dozen hits, such as “Just The Way You Are,” “Only The Good Die Young,” “It’s Still Rock and Roll To Me,” and “Uptown Girl,” among many others.

At 75, Joel recently ended his decade-long residency at New York’s Madison Square Garden, where he performed over 100 concerts, almost one a month, except for brief interruptions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
