This may seem like a rerun, as these rumors have been circulating around for years, but the New York Post reports that Barack and Michelle Obama have bought a place in Rancho Mirage.
According to sources, the Obamas have purchased a house in Rancho Mirage, Calif., not far from Sunnylands, the former Annenberg estate, which presidents use as a getaway and which is thought of as the unofficial West Coast Camp David.
Rancho Mirage, where Gerald Ford retired, is a top destination for golf — a favorite pastime of President Obama. The local daily newspaper, the Desert Sun, has reported rumors of such a sale for more than a year. But sources say now it’s a done deal.
The Obamas also bought a home in Hawaii, according to the Post.
The family already announced they will stay in Washington D.C. until their daughter Sasha finishes school, which would be two years from now.
