Elvis Presley Magnificent 270 Acre Farm.


In 1974 Elvis was touring America, his father Vernon would accompany him on several dates. During the days Elvis would be off tour he and his father would find their solitude at Graceland or on this 270 acre working farm. The farm was under the ownership of the Presley’s from 1974 to 1977. Ironically this farm was sold just six days prior to Elvis passing. During the three years the Presley’s owned this working farm (acquired with 59 heifers, 14 steer, 2000 bales of hay, Allis-Chalmers tractor and a bush hog) it was frequented by Vernon and occasionally by Elvis.

The beautiful, rolling 270 acres has five ponds (one currently stocked), hay fields, a working 1940’s horse barn and 39,000 newly planted pine trees.  To this day, the current owner has used the 1940’s cabin as a vacation retreat.  The cabin has a second floor, screened in porch, two bathrooms, two bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen. The backyard shows an immense outdoor barbecue pit.

The 270 acres, located in Fayette County is a one-hour drive from downtown Memphis. There are a few nearby rural farm communities with historic buildings on the main streets, including the town of Moscow, TN. The drive through the neighboring communities and quiet countryside further enhance the appeal of this historic property. Knowing Elvis and his entourage would make the drive from Memphis and stop at some of the still existing restaurants and gas stations along the way make this a region truly frozen in time.

The property would make an ideal corporate retreat, gated community with exclusive homes, golf course, concert venue or vacation property for the Elvis fan who has everything. The natural contour of the acreage would make this farm especially ideal for a concert venue. It goes without saying that the historic aspects of this farm would make the marketing of a concert venue unlimited and in a league of its own.
