The Elvis House Summa
Summary: In the 1950s when Elvis Presley was the hottest personality on Earth, he visited our home to unwind. Our childhood home, built in 1924, has been reborn as a vacation rental decorated in Elvis-era furnishings and has not changed much since Elvis graced its halls.
The Space: The Elvis house was built by the Fadal family in 1924 but in the 1950âs became known as Elvis Presleyâs âhome away from home.â The home has been updated with recessed lighting, stainless steel appliances, and a well equipped kitchen.
Guest Access: Guests may enjoy the entire home. Listen to vintage vinyl on the 1960âs Seeburg record changing console in the Elvis Room, mix a drink in the bar or kick back and relax with a movie after a busy day. There is also an original Sony three screen tv identical in every way to the one Elvis once owned. Since the âkingâ liked to watch all three networks at one time Sony made these sets and gave them as gifts to US Senators, President Kennedy and Elvis.
The Neighborhood: The home is 10 minutes from everywhere youâd want to go in Waco. Downtown, the Silos, Baylor University as well as a large HEB grocery store, Target and local coffee shops. Check out the gorgeous home across the street, which is featured in Season 5 of Fixer Upper.
The neighborhood is quite diverse. Waco is proud to offer places for diverse families to live and work together.
Getting Around: Waco offers both Lyft and Uber transportation services.
Other Things to Note: This Short Term Rental is licensed by the City of Waco License #STR000321
Interaction with Guests: I live nearby and am available via my cell if you have any questions about the house or our lovely city.
This was a surprise for my mom and she was thrilled! The familyâs memories of Elvis were so well documented and displayed to enjoy.The home was quite spacious, plenty of room to spread out. Checking in and out was as simple as if you owned the home, beds were very comfortable. Plenty of toiletries supplied in case you forgot something. Shopping and restaurants are within a short 10 minute drive.
We have a friend visiting from the Netherlands who loves the series Fixer Upper so that is the main purpose of our trip. Little did we know that Waco was such a wonderful city, so beautiful, charming and welcoming. And the Elvis house was great, clean, comfortable and interesting. It was like going back in time to my Grandparents house.
