Elvis Presley couldn’t help falling in love with the "House of Tomorrow."
The mid-century home where the singer and his bride, Priscilla Presley, honeymooned in 1967 has hit the market for $5.6 million.
The couple leased the 4,695-square-foot-property in the Vista Las Palmas neighborhood of Palm Springs, California, for one year after they said "I do." While the home received its futuristic nickname from Look magazine in 1962 due to its "spaceship-like" design, it has also been hailed as the "Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway" by fans.

"The property is done so well," Marc Sanders of real restate firm Compass, which is holding the listing, told FOX Business in a statement. "It still has all the architectural integrities of when it was built and now is upgraded to a modern living house to today's living standards."
The William Krisel-designed home, built in 1960, features four bedrooms, three full baths and an at-home spa. It also boasts an indoor kitchen grill, vacuum ports and wall-mounted radios. Its amenities were considered ahead of its time.

The dining room sits on an elevated platform, which overlooks the living room. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls showcase stunning views of mountains and palm trees surrounding the property. The kitchen includes an oval-shaped center island with five built-in burners.
