The huge, historic estate in Westchester County sits on 12 acres

Hollywood couple Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones are trying to sell their huge estate in Irvington, N.Y., for $12 million.

The mansion boasts eight bedrooms, 11.5 baths, and more than 11,600 square feet on 12 acres.

The power pair sold a much larger home in nearby Bedford, N.Y., in 2019 before buying this spread on the banks of the Hudson River in Westchester County that same year.

At nearly a century old, this grand estate feels modern and comfortable, thanks to a recent interior restoration. The Georgian-style, brick and stone home offers an array of gorgeous details, like glossy wood and stone floors, red lacquer walls in the formal dining room, and numerous fireplaces.

Baronial elegance comes to mind upon entering the home as the gallery is 30 feet in length. A formal living room and dining room are on the first floor, as is the gorgeous kitchen with lots of shiny subway tile, marble counters, and an island with wine storage.

The primary suite is spacious, with room for a seating area by the fireplace. Another fireplace shows up in the primary bathroom, along with a soaking tub and pretty chandelier. There's also a two-story, paneled library; extra rooms on the lower level for play and recreation; a home gym; and a 21-foot, indoor, heated pool.

Meanwhile, 130 feet of river frontage awaits behind the home, along with a 100-foot terrace that faces the river to the west. The property also comes with a four-car garage.

Douglas and the Welsh-born Zeta-Jones have three Academy Awards between them, a Tony for her, and five Golden Globes for him-a stash few celebrity couple can match.

More recently, Douglas starred in the Apple (AAPL) TV series "Franklin," while Zeta-Jones had a star turn as Morticia Addams in the supernatural mystery show "Wednesday."
