Information about Elvis' former home:
Elvis' former home was constructed in 1958 and today it is in fantastic and perfect condition. It has probably been renovated as you can see from the Realtor photos. A lot of the exteriors are original from Elvis' time, such as: the entry gates, the swimming pool, and much of the stone decor! You can locate numerous fan candid photos of Elvis enjoying his home and photos of Elvis greeting fans at the entry gates.
