For the first time ever we're getting a rare look inside Tacoma's fabled Weyerhaeuser mansion. See inside this majestic home full of secret hideaways and doors that will surprise you. See the exquisite home perched on 5.97 acres overlooking Puget Sound, Vashon Island & Cascade mountains! This 52 room, 3-story Jacobethan Mansion was built in 1923 by John & Anne Weyerhaeuser. Fabulous features include pipe organ; elevator; 3 staircases; secret doors; and rare, white oak millwork! Landscaping was designed by Olmsted Brothers, of New York's Central Park fame! Enjoy lunch in Tacoma and then were off to see Dunn Gardens. The esteemed Olmsted Brothers Landscape firm designed the Dunn Gardens in 1915. One hundred years later the vision of the Gardens as a place of timeless grace has been realized. Notable features include naturalistic groupings of trees, broad lawns with borders of shrubs, and woodland walks. Plants range from diminutive erythroniums to large rhododendrons and towering Douglas firs.
