Two east-facing covered decks run the length of the house providing pastoral views of the garden below and the green space of Panama Flats beyond which floods in the winter giving the illusion of a lake.

About
Shawn's Biography
Shawn Adye was born
and raised on the island. He has fond memories of growing up in the Cobble Hill
area. He has lived in Victoria since 1989. After school and a few adventures
through BC and Alberta he settled into a position with CN Rail which he
maintained for ten years. While there he obtained a strong work ethic as well
as a few lifelong friendships.
Shawn's real estate
career started in 1989. With hard work and perseverance he was off and running,
and hasn't looked back since. Shawn's wealth of knowledge comes from the
combination of years in the real estate business, a background in homebuilding
and construction and a lifetime spent in the Victoria area. All these combined
provide Shawn with the tools to assess the market and individual properties and
the necessary skills in representing a client in either the purchase or sale of
real estate.
Shawn has been a
consistent top producer and MLS Award Winner. Part of his success is due to his
ability to help define the needs of his clients and apply his knowledge of the
real estate market to produce the ideal results.
He uses his down time
to weight-train, play hockey and spend time with his family. When he gets a
chance to get away he either jumps on his motorcycle for a tour or heads to the
open waters with friends for a nice long sail.

Andrew's Biography
Andrew grew up in
Vancouver and graduated from Carson Graham High School. He went on to complete
a Photographic Technician Course at Vancouver City College and worked as a
photographer in the commercial and motion picture fields. In his mid 20's he
purchased and lived on a 38' sailboat and over the next 6 years
extensively cruised the BC coast. After selling the sailboat he moved
to Comox and worked at Mt. Washington in the winters, helping to operate the
cross country ski lodge. In the off season he found work in the carpentry field
and made sure there was plenty of time to pursue his passion for ocean
kayaking!
Marriage led Andrew
to relocate to Victoria in 1983 at which time he started his own woodworking
business which eventually led him into a partnership operating Royal Oak
Woodworking which specialized in building custom furniture. After five
successful years in the custom woodworking business family health issues
resulted in Andrew being asked to manage the family business at
Anglers Anchorage Marina. After leaving the partnership he spent the next
few years operating a full serviced facility for 180 boats. When the Marina
sold Andrew decided to pursue an interest he's always had in Real Estate. Andrew
started with Pemberton Holmes Ltd. in the spring of 93. Aside from the joys and
demands of parenthood, his current interests are woodworking, sailing, ocean
kayaking and golf.
Andrew's varied
background has taught him many talents which are proving invaluable in dealing
with Real Estate. Commercial photography, a useful skill in itself, taught him
much about marketing. His knowledge of carpentry has helped many times in the
assessment of a home. In operating the woodwork company he learnt many business
skills, foremost being the importance of customer satisfaction, while as
manager of the marina he honed his organizational skills along with reinforcing
the value of providing a personalized service with competence and honesty.
Andrew's hard work put him in the top 5% of all Victoria Realtors for over
15 years but as of Dec 31st, 2013 he has handed in his licence.
