About the area
University Place
University Place is home to this holiday home. Chambers Bay Golf Course and Narrows Plaza Bowl are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit 6th Ave and Tacoma Mall. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's going on at Tacoma Dome, or consider a night out at Court House Square.

You'll get a chance to meet us as we live in the home next door. Looking at the view, working in the garden, and walking our standard poodles keep us busy!
Why they chose this property
This house was built in the 70's by our neighbors and we have lived next door to the Folly Plus for 50 years. Spectacular vistas, close friendships, and a bevy of activities in the community at large are what we enjoy most about University Place.
What makes this property unique
In the midst of contemporary, modern homes, The Folly Plus stands out as an homage to Colonial New England both in its architecture and furnishings. A breathtaking 180 degree view, lots of space ~ much of it recently renovated, and a crystal clear swimming pool ~ open from May thru September, are but a few of the amenities this home offers.
