Book-loving Oprah would have obviously been very taken with the home's snug reading nook. The comfy space is fitted with several capacious bookcases and dressers.

However, in 2021, Oprah sold her stunning estate in an off-market deal for a reported $14 million (£11.5m). Speaking to the Seattle Times, Wally Gudgell, the agent who represented Oprah in the sale, said: “They were in the process of remodelling and they just realised they were never going to be able to use it properly and it doesn’t make any sense.”

While the property was not formally listed, the deal marked the highest price ever paid for an Orcas Island property, sources familiar with the sale told the Biz Journal.
