Celebrity Rentals: Oprah Winfrey Lists 15k Per Month Chicago Co-op (PHOTOS)
Hitting the rental market in recent days is a massive Chicago, Illinois co-op owned by none other than former television talk show host and cable network proprietor, Oprah Winfrey. For the tidy sum of $15,000-a-month, one can reside in Oprah�s grand Beaux Arts-style home, although it should be noted that the celebrity media mogul has never actually lived in the building. No, according to the Chicago Tribune, Oprah has chosen not to move into the co-op she paid $5.6 million for in 2006, opting to instead remain situated in her colossal downtown condominium (and her $50 million Montecito palace and her Hawaiian �farmhouse� and a slew of other multi-million dollar properties that she owns).
Located in the historic East Lake Shore Drive District, Oprah�s Streeterville spread measures in at approximately 4,607-square-feet � 1,241-square-feet of which are dedicated to a master suite complete with his and her bathrooms � and enjoys spectacular views of the Chicago Harbor. As to be expected with an Oprah-owned home, the sixth-floor co-op features many of the finer things in life within, including a splendid grand foyer that gives way to an expansive living room, wood-trimmed library, formal dining area, solarium, wine room, butler�s pantry and custom-designed kitchen.
