Elvis Presley's First Memphis Home

Elvis Presley's First Memphis Home


Memphis, Tennessee (TN), US
This house was purchased in 1956, when Presley was only 21 years old. He and his family (parents and grandmother) only spent one year here. Elvis’ success brought them enough money to afford an even fancier place to live (Graceland, a two-story colonial house).

In April 1956, a month after settling in this house at 1034 Audubon Drive in Memphis, Elvis Presley hit the charts with "Heartbreak Hotel" which soon reached No. 1 on Billboard.
