The country’s current priciest listing is a $350 million California estate that was the setting for “The Beverly Hillbillies” in the 1960s — at least until Bel Air’s $500 million “The One” behemoth comes to market.

The “Hillbillies” home was owned by the late billionaire Jerry Perenchio, a media mogul who made his name promoting the Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier boxing match in 1971.

He then went on to buy Univision, a then-struggling Spanish-language media company, which he later sold for $13.5 billion.

Now Perenchio’s former Manhattan penthouse at Museum Tower — at 15 W. 53rd St. — is on the market for $15.95 million.

The nearly 5,000-square-foot, three-bedroom duplex, designed by Cesar Pelli, is on the 51st and 52nd floors, with sweeping views of Central Park and the Hudson River.

Inside, it features a double-height entrance foyer with a circular staircase, woodburning fireplaces and oversize windows — along with two terraces totaling nearly 800 square feet.

The listing brokers are Edward F. Johnston III and Shirley A. Mueller, of Brown Harris Stevens.
