The Clinton House is an 18th-century Georgian stone building in the city of Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, New York, United States.

The house was named for George Clinton, who served as the first Governor of New York and fourth Vice-President of the United States.

Clinton House was built around 1765 by Clear Everitt, who was sheriff of the county from 1754 to 1761, on land that had belonged to Hugh van Kleeck (born about 1745, died after 1810) who owned about 20 hectares of land south of Main Street where the house stands.

When his house was damaged by fire, Hay petitioned George Washington for craftsmen from the army to assist in its repair.
