Inside the vast estate of television queen Oprah Winfrey in Montecito, the life of one of America’s richest Africans

The opulent mansion of talk show presenter and billionaire Oprah Winfrey in Montecito, California was converted into a private sanctuary called The Promised Land.


Since acquiring the opulent residence in 2001, Oprah has devoured adjacent properties in an effort to maintain her privacy. A 23,000-square-foot Neo-Georgian mansion, a 5,000-square-foot ranch-style home, a tea house, a koi pond, and numerous fruit and vegetable gardens comprise the 70-acre estate.

Moreover, the serene estate is adorned with scenic vistas of the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean.
