Some Elvis Presley fans are about to be All Shook Up learning that they can own a piece of The King for only a few million dollars.
The Palm Springs pad, where Elvis and new bride Priscilla Presley hid out after their secret wedding in 1967, is back on the market for $2.695 million – nearly three times less than the $5.9 million asking price it was listed at only a year ago.

The William Krisel-designed abode features futuristic pod-like structures and floating stairs as part of its unique look. The 5,000-square-foot home has floor-to-ceiling windows and a chic 60’s vibe with a suspended, see-through fireplace and stone accented walls.
The kitchen continues the round aesthetic with a circular free-standing island complete with indoor grill. Heading up the narrowing stairs, a drape-heavy bedroom, one of five, sits surrounded by windows and closets lining the walls.

As the Seattle Times reports, all art and furnishings, including portraits of the cultural icon, are included in the nearly $2.7 million sale.
