Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt is in talks to buy the New York estate of Hollywood actors Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas, according to the New York Post.

He's reported to be set to pay around $15 million for the Westchester property that Zeta-Jones and Douglas bought for around $11.25 million five years ago.

The 1895-built home in Bedford Corners has eight bedrooms, 18 bathrooms and a designer kitchen.

The amenities list is long.

There's spa facilities with two indoor pools, a gym, sauna and steam room.

There's also an outdoor pool, tennis court, a guest cottage with two apartments, a Lord & Burnham greenhouse and a collector's garage.

For the horse lover there's a four stall barn, an outdoor ring, four paddocks and direct access to vast riding trails on the Bedford Riding Lanes.

The home has been renovated throughout by Zeta-Jones, who documented the transformation on Instagram with the hashtag #StyleByZeta.

Pratt is the executive chairman of Visy and Pratt Industries in the US, the world’s largest privately owned packaging and paper company.

The family has a net work of around $15 billion.
