The Obamas' Cherished Summer Retreat: Malia and Sasha's Childhood Home Listed for $40 Million

The opulent Martha’s Vineyard estate, famously rented by Barack and Michelle Obama—known affectionately as the "Summer White House"—is currently on the market with a price tag nearing $40 million. The couple cherished their time at Blue Heron Farm from 2008 to 2012, using it as a secluded haven to nurture their daughters, Sasha and Malia, shielded from public scrutiny. Presently, rental prices for this extraordinary property can climb to $50,000 weekly, although the details of the Obamas' rental arrangement have not been disclosed. Priced at $39 million, Blue Heron Farm stands poised to become the most expensive home sale on the island, surpassing Katherine Graham's previous record of $32.5 million in 2019. The estate features an expansive 30 acres, an eight-bedroom main house, guesthouse, sports facilities, and a breathtaking private beach.
