President Barack Obama and his family will move to a $6 million nine-bedroom rented home in an upscale Washington neighborhood — two blocks from the White House — when he leaves in January.
The 8,200-square-foot home will be the residence of the Obama family as youngest daughter Sasha completes high school at Sidwell Friends School, The New York Times reports, quoting anonymous sources.
Sasha Obama, who turns 15 next month, graduates in 2018.
Based on several real estate websites, the home is valued at nearly $6 million and carries a monthly rent of about $22,000. It is owned by Joe Lockhart, a former press secretary and senior adviser to former President Bill Clinton, the Times reports.
The home is located in the upscale Kalorama neighborhood, according to the report.

Solar panels? Electric car equiptment in garage? Echo friendly septic and water? Didn't think so... I'll start worry about the ozone and carbon foot prints when these jokers do!!!
When he becomes a private citizen, it is his right to provide a home for his family wherever he wants. The expanse of providing that is also none of our business.
Well, there goes the neighborhood...
Joe your blog is fair and balanced you get all kinds of folks even liberal ones!
I certainly hope that his Secret Service Detail isn't carrying firearms to protect his family. Since he doesn't believe that we the people should be able to protect ours.
Oh yeah 6:35 AM, I like and agree with your comment.
3:40
I don't care about the expense only because I don't care about him.
Where the heck do you think the funds are coming from?
The only positive in this is you can move in much cheaper when that crowd arrives, because most neighbors will be moving out. And if you were a conservative you would know why.
I heard he will have lottery machines installed
Probably moving in rent free from a supporter.
Your a pervert and are happy with the bathrooms.
So a former government employee who worked for Bill Clinton can afford a $6+ million dollar home? Says enough for me about the Clintons.
Hes renting it for $22,000 per month until the little one graduates from her high dollar Sidwell Academy in 2018.
Hows that income equality working out for ya?
The "rent" will likely be the millions of dollars the Federal government puts into the place under the auspices of security.
3:40A.M. - You are obviously delusional. When he becomes a private citizen, you as a taxpayer are still paying for it the rest of his life with the Secret Service salaries also. Give me a break!!!!!
Are we not still paying for the other ex-Presidents? So he's just one more ex-President that we have to pay for, so suck it up. It seems when it comes to President Obama people are so quick to put him down and say spiteful things. GET OVER IT!!!
Other Presidents kids have attended Sidwell Friends school and nothing was said about it being "high dollar."
pres Osama could not be reached for comment on this story as he was playing golf with al Sharpton and did not want any interruptions
Since he believes in redistributing the wealth. Why doesn't he give some of his money to the poor. He is only for giving away other people's money. He and his wife Michael should be very happy there. And why can't his daughter go to public school with common core and boys in girls locker rooms and bathrooms.
