Things appear to be going well for the pair as Zeta-Jones seems to be ready to part ways with the beautiful Colonial-styled house.

The property, located in Westchester County, New York, features six bedrooms and six baths.

Zeta-Jones purchased the house, built in the 1930s, for $5 million in 2010, which she had renovated last year.

Included in the revamping was an impressive master suite closet addition, a guest house, and remodeling of the kitchen.

The luxuries aren't exclusive to just the home itself as amenities surrounding the mansion include gardens, a greenhouse, pool and spa.

Recently Michael Douglas's former wife, Diandra Douglas, launched a thinly-veiled attack on Zeta-Jones in an interview from her home in Majorca, which she still co-owns with Douglas.

Asked about rumours that Zeta-Jones had tried to buy her half share of the Spanish villa, Diandra retorted: ‘It’s not true. Sometimes people say things without the slightest proof.

‘Why would someone who doesn’t speak Spanish or the local Majorcan language or knows nothing about this culture want a house here? She doesn’t even come here much.’

And responding to a question about why she was ‘less visible’ on the Spanish resort than the Hollywood actors now, Diandra, 56, added: ‘That’s because I don’ t believe in showing off.

‘I’ve never sold photos or kept money from anything and I’ve always given everything away to charity.

‘I’m proud to be able to say that I’ve never turned my private life into showbusiness.

‘Too much public exposure affects children.’
