SAN FRANCISCO – (Aug. 11, 2008) – Live like the King or make a king’s fortune – seriously. Here is the platinum opportunity to rock and roll in Elvis Presley’s “Graceland West” estate. Nestled in the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains in Palm Springs, Presley lived in the sprawling estate for almost eight years, recorded eight songs for RCA in the living room in 1973 and spent his last birthday at the historic home. Honey Brooks of Pacific Union GMAC Real Estate is representing the seller of the estate, replete with the original “Elvis lifestyle amenities.”The Presley estate is ideal for entertaining. It features 5 bedrooms and 7 baths with panoramic views.“The opportunity to carry out the stewardship of this historic property and enjoy the hallowed halls of the infamous ‘King of Rock and Roll’ is truly unique in every sense of the word,” said Brooks, of Pacific Union’s Opera Plaza office in San Francisco.Legendary architect Albert Frey designed the modern, Spanish-style stucco, 5,000-square-foot home which was remodeled to suit the King’s personality and needs. Swiss-born Frey was a talented architect known for establishing the style of modern Palm Springs architecture called desert modernism.The impressive Presley estate is great for entertaining and comfortably accommodates large groups of up to 150 guests. Situated on approximately two acres of land, the property features four bedrooms in the main house, each with its own bath. Off the patio is Presley’s bedroom suite with two complete bathrooms, a sunken black and red tile tub, and dressing area. The dining room includes a full wet bar. The living room, with a cathedral beamed ceiling, overlooks the pool which boasts a 30-mile panoramic view of the mountains and downtown Palm Springs. Additional features include Presley’s original kitchen appliances, a separate indoor sauna and steam room, plus his private covered Jacuzzi.Presley’s historic Palm Springs estate offers discriminating guest and corporate groups complete privacy for special events, business meetings, unique gatherings, or simply a weekend of relaxation.
