From the Redfin listing: "The Alexander Residence 1960 - William Krisel architect. Prolific Southern California developers and society patrons Robert Helene Alexander of the Alexander Construction Co. commissioned the spaceship-like dynamic winged home as there personal residence, a testament to engineering and daring avant-garde design that attracted Look Magazine in 1962 to declare it The House Of Tomorrow. 1967 the newlyweds Elvis and Priscilla Presley famously leased the house lending it the name The Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway Home. A provocative entry path ushers you into an interior sunken party pad flanked by angular stacked stoned walls, glass, and a low-slung curved upholstered banquet embracing a futuristic shaped fireplace hood and floating hearth. A raised dining platform connects to a custom circular kitchen and private den with fireplace, the grounds unfold seamlessly through a wall of glass to the expansive exterior terracing, pool, and breathtaking mountain views. A lavish primary suite is reached via a grand staircase to a private glassed perch featuring panoramic views. A generous dressing room/bathroom is concealed by built-in wardrobe closets centered around a circular tub, and an intimate balcony is accessible allowing for a discrete observation deck. All bedrooms, three lower and one upper, are en-suite, two sharing an exterior terrace. In 2021 the home went under a thoughtful renovation with restored original architectural details of stone and poured terrazzo floors, bringing the house back to it's original intent and receiving a Class-One historic designation. 2023 brought additional improvements of a higher level of luxury and sophistication. This iconic house is in the Vista Las Palmas neighborhood and is the largest Alexander-built home with the largest pool and best lot. (This Special Home Is Being Sold Furnished). Prior to viewing the property, any potential buyer must be qualified with proof of funds or letter of qualification by known financial institution." NOTE: The photo of Elvis and Priscilla in the honeymoon home was obtained from a 2020 People article featuring the house here: https://people.com/home/elvis-and-priscilla-presleys-former-honeymoon-hideout-hits-the-market-for-5-6-million-see-inside/
