The childhood home of Elvis Presley is set to hit the auction block.
From 1943 to 1944, the “King of Rock and Roll” lived in the blue-planked home in East Tupelo, Mississippi, according to a report. Presley lived in the home, which his great uncle built, with parents Vernon and Gladys Presley.

The house stood in that location for decades until 2017, when it was taken apart to be preserved for reassembly, the report noted. Elvis expert Chris Davidson oversaw the deconstruction, and the pieces of the house are contained in a 30-foot trailer.
The person who wins the house will also keep the trailer as well as a documentary about the house’s deconstruction.
Rockhurst Auctions has set the minimum bid for the home at $25,000, according to the report. The house is valued at anywhere between $50,000 to $75,000.
It will be sold off at the Aug. 14 “Auction on Elvis Presley Blvd” event in Memphis.
