Oprah Winfrey's Chicago home for rent
Talk-show host Oprah Winfrey has placed an eight-room, 4,607-square-foot co-op unit inStreeterville up for rent for $15,000 a month.
She reportedly purchased the luxury apartment in the urban-upscale Streeterville neighborhood in 2006 for $5,600,000.
The sixth-floor co-op is one of 13 apartments in a Beaux Arts-style building that was built in 1913 and designed by architect Benjamin Marshall.
Features in the unit include three full baths, two half baths, 10-foot ceilings, two fireplaces, an inner foyer, a library, a solarium, a formal dining room, a butler’s pantry, a wine room, a custom kitchen, a 1,241-square-foot master bedroom with his and her bathrooms and an en-suite guest bedroom.
Despite securing the approval of the co-op board with a promise to make it her full-time residence, Oprah Winfrey never moved in the apartment.
She chose instead to remain in her massive duplex condominium spread in a different building a few blocks away.
