Rosie O’Donnell Closes on Southport Corridor Home

Exterior of home
That was quick.
UrbanTurf has learned that Rosie O’Donnell, whose TV talk show premieres next month on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), has closed on the five-bedroom, six-bath Southport Corridor mansion that she went under contract on just a couple weeks ago. The seller was Erik Logan, the president of OWN.
The 6,000 square-foot, twelve-room home at 1517 W. Grace St. (map) closed on Monday for $2.25 million, $250,000 less than the asking price and $150,000 less than what Logan purchased it for in 2008.
The home has an enormous great room (see below) with a gas-log fireplace, a large master suite, with its own sitting room and fireplace, three more bedrooms and a fully-finished basement that has remote-controlled black-out shades and radiant-heated floors.

Great room
With the Rosie Show set to begin on October 10, we expect to see a moving truck outside the Lake View abode shortly.
