Food Network star Sandra Lee has listed the home she shared with New York Governor Andrew Cuomo for sale for $2million, amid rumors the couple have split, which the pair have denied. 

Earlier this month, Lee announced she intended to sell the storybook-style mansion in Mount Kisco for $2.3 million, but the actual listing went up for $300,000 shy of that mark, according to Realtor.com.

Lee, 52, and Cuomo, 61, have denied rumors that their relationship is on the rocks and instead pin the downsizing on Cuomo's three daughters leaving the home, which is owned by Lee while Cuomo has said he shared living and tax expenses, according to the New York Times.  

While in the process of selling the 1950s Colonial in the northern Westchester County enclave of New Castle, Lee said their plan is to divide their time between her New York City apartment, the governor's mansion and the Hamptons.

Sitting on a 2.89 acre lot, the spacious design of the house spans 4,129 square foot. 

One bedroom comes complete with built-in shelving covering nearly an entire wall, leaving space only for a window.

The shelving extends out into two dressers, with space between to create a permanent desk right in front of the natural light.

Ever the organized pair, Lee's home with Cuomo featured six individual cubbies situated next to a door, where rain boots are nestled and each person can have their own space for hanging coats and other personal effects. 

The house is full of unique characteristics in terms of the walls and ceilings, like in a personal space currently decorated with pots and a portrait on a easel, next to an area for painting

Off to the side of the kitchen area is a space for dining, large enough to hold an oval table with loveseat-style seating, and right around the corner from the stairs to the second floor.

There are also several spaces well-suited for more formal dining, and always right beside a window making sure to make the most of natural light in the home. 

The primary, formal dining space has floor-to-ceiling windows, coming directly off of the other side of kitchen. 

In a causal seating area elsewhere in the home, rose-colored paint accentuates another fireplace and more built-in shelving.

The outside is just as charming with sprawling, green grass accented with a quintessentially American white picket fence. 

The property also features a creak flowing into a double pond, and its own waterfall. 

The backyard has an outdoor fireplace situated on a patio with a stone floor, with plenty of space for seating.

Dark blue shutters frame the windows, creating a beautiful contrast with the white siding that covers the home. 

Nestled into a hillside where the outdoor fireplace is poised is an outdoor storage area, camouflaged with white lattices making up its doors.

There's also a gazebo near the pond, a far enough distance from the home to create a sense of solitude, though not too far to make it a burdensome walk to reach.

Despite the blissful setting shown in the photos accompanying the real estate listing, neither Lee or Cuomo have reportedly been spending time at the estate.

A friend of Cuomo's told Page Six that he had moved into the governor’s mansion in Albany months ago, while Lee has been staying in lower Manhattan and on the West Coast.

However Lee claimed that she has been busy helping take care of a sick uncle,which is what has prompted her to spend time in California.

'We've been together 14 years. Nothing has changed. We’re still together,' she said.

Claiming rumors of their split were 'absolutely not true', Cuomo's spokesperson Don Kaplan said, 'It's not true that they are broken up or that they are living separately.'

Speculation had mounted that the pair had parted ways previously when Lee was notably absent from the Governor’s campaign website as he sought re-election and appeared to be making a bid for the Presidential election.

At the time, Cuomo's campaign spokesperson Abby Fashouer denied there were problems in the relationship and insisted: 'Everyone knows the governor and Sandy have been partners for 13 years and that she is an important part of everything he does.'

Cuomo, who shares his three daughters with his ex-wife Kerry Kennedy, was by Lee's side when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy in 2015. 

Lee praised Cuomo for being incredibly supportive during her cancer battle and subsequent reconstructive surgeries in 2016.

Before dating Cuomo, the chef was married to KB Home CEO Bruce Karatz for four years. While she acts as a step-mother to Cuomo's children, Lee has no children of her own.

Only Lee and Cuomo know for certain what's going on with their relationship, but if they are headed down separate roads after over a decade together, it's only fitting that they part ways with the house they made a home on Bittersweet Lane as they do it.
