The eight-room, 4,607-square-foot Streeterville co-op unit in Chicago was taken off of the talk show queen’s hands for $2.75 million. Strangely, Winfrey never actually occupied the three-bedroom unit at 199 E. Lake Shore Drive. She paid $5.6 million in 2006 for the sixth-floor space but had a change of heart after buying it, and she decided to remain in her massive duplex condominium in a different building a few blocks away.
After the media mogul listed the unit from June 2008 until January 2009 for $6 million, with no takers, Winfrey then placed it up for rent late last year for $15,000 a month.
Winfrey, who mostly lives in the ultra-pricey Southern California city of Santa Barbara and Hawaii, re-listed the unit in May for $2.8 million, and it almost immediately went under contract. Her duplex condo in Streeterville remains off the market.
Don’t feel bad for the empress. She has plenty of ultra-glam homes around the world. Take a look at a few of them below.
