She put her Miami beach house on the market last week, just 11 days after it was announced her chat show was to be axed.

And now, a peek inside the plush property has been revealed.

The comedienne television host has listed her mansion on Star Island for a $19,500,000 after originally buying her pad for $6,750,000 in 1999.

Moving on: Rosie O’Donnell’s Miami, Florida went on sale for $19,500,000 less than two weeks after it was announced her OWN show had been cancelled

Too luxurious? The 50-year-old’s pad which recently went on the market features a 203 linear feet of a southeast-facing waterfront

Out with the old: She listed her Chicago home in March after she moved her work to New York

The 50-year-old’s property is more than 11,000 square feet in size and is situated on a 48,266 plot of land with 203 linear foot of a southeast-facing waterfront view.

The luxurious home features clean white interiors, colourful rugs and a fish tank in the dining room.

Meanwhile the cobbled driveway is dominated by a huge tree.

While it is unknown whether her
decision to leave the luxurious estate – which also features two private
guest houses – is related to her TV program being chopped from the
Oprah Winfrey Network after just six months of being aired, this is the
second home the brunette has put up for sale in March. 

Just one day after being put on the
market last month, her 12-room, 6,000-square-foot house in
Chicago – where the show was first filmed before being moved to New York
– found a buyer.

Hours after O’Donnell listed the five-bedroom house for $2.5 million, the home went under contract according to the Chicago Tribune.

The star bought the house last autumn for $2.25 million from Erik Logan, the president of OWN.

Though O’Donnell occupied a corporate apartment while working in the Windy City, she had lived in the home for a time.

Clean: The home largely consists of white walls and pale marble floors

However, the Chicago Tribune reported that with her children visiting her in Chicago from their Big Apple home only on weekends, the talk-show host felt she did not need as much space.

But less than two weeks later it emerged her show was to be cancelled, reportedly sparking a feud between Winfrey and Rosie.

A source told RadarOnline: ‘Oprah wanted to handle the announcement of the cancellation in a professional and dignified manner.

Fishy: A fish tank is built into the wall of the dining room

‘Rosie thanked Oprah for the opportunity and ended the conversation very abruptly.’

But Rosie was apparently unhappy at the language used in the press release making Oprah’s decision public.

When Oprah’s public relations team at OWN asked Rosie to call Oprah directly, she failed to do so and got her own camp to act as a go-between, the website claims. 

Making money: Rosie originally purchased the property for $6,750,000 in 1999

Plenty of room: The estate also features two private guest houses and is the second home Rosie put up for sale in March

Feud: Apparently Rosie and Oprah are not on speaking terms after her show got the axe from her network
