Oprah Winfrey’s Hawaii luxury home hosts FLOTUS



“There's a reason it's often called paradise. I am blessed that for at least two months out of the year (working on three) I get to call it home,” writes Oprah Winfrey, of her luxury estate in Hawaii, for Huffington Post.



Right next to Hawaii’s Big Island is the island of Maui, where Oprah’s sanctuary in the Pacific is located and is inspired by the informal American country style. Initially, Oprah thought of tearing down the ranch that occupied the lot, to build a homestead. But soon, with the collaboration of interior decorator Ellie Cullman, architectural designer Jeff Wooley, and the Queen of Talk herself, the property was beautifully transformed into an elegant American farmhouse.

Oprah’s luxury home in Hawaii comes with a spacious veranda that affords the occupants a relaxing view of the ocean, lots of French doors that let the fresh Hawaiian breeze in, and high ceilings. The white façade cuts a striking contrast to the green meadow where the estate sits, while a wide staircase leads to a porch that welcomes every visitor into the beautiful house.

Oprah and Ellie also handpicked every décor – from the embroidered curtains from India and a 19th-century American weather vane shaped as a horse, to antique Ann-Morris lamps and a 1946 masterpiece by Thomas Hart Benton.

In every way, Oprah’s Hawaiian luxury vacation home is fit for the highly influential talk show host, producer, and philanthropist, who had also been consistently listed as one of the world’s richest women. Not surprisingly, the luxury home has also recently hosted the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama.
