Scope and content
Rear view of 1958 Better Homes & Garden Idea Home. Located in University Estates, the home's large picture windows and balcony were planned to take advantage of the trees and water view. The contemporary home had small windows in the front of the house; the large expansive windows were saved for the rear. Occupants could enjoy relaxing on the second floor balcony or in the shade of the covered patio. Rex Harrington was listed as the builder; the house had recently been sold. The split-level, 1514 square foot home had three bedrooms, two baths and a recreation room. It was part of the 1958 Tour of Homes sponsored by the Tacoma Master Builders Association. Photograph ordered by Rex Harrington. (TNT 9-5-58, C-4)
