Exterior of model home. This is the "Encore 73," an $50,000 luxury home built by Evergreen State Builders for the 1973 Tacoma Home Show. The University Place home was located in the new Woodlake development off Chambers Creek Rd. where an angled driveway led to the model home. The contemporary home had adapted the "hip roof" design for its cedar shake roof. It contained 2,268 sq. ft. on the main floor and another 932 sq. ft. on the upper level. The double car garage contained an additional 540 sq. ft. The model home would be open for touring during the March 13-18th run of the home show.
