One of Walt Disney's former homes has sold for the asking price of $1,095,000, according to the Los Angeles Times. "Walt Disney's Technicolor Dream House" as it has been dubbed, is located in the Indian Canyons neighborhood of Palm Springs. Inside, Disney-themed decor and bursts of color energize the four-bedroom, four-bathroom, single-story ranch. Built in 1962 as a retreat for Disney and his wife Lillian in their later years, the home remained in the family up until 2015 when it was sold. You can view the listing, held by Michael Erives and Darcey Deetz of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Leaskou Partners, here. But as for now, mind if we show you some highlights?
