The property’s story

A renovated home on Drummer Cove.

The setting at 20 First Avenue follows the edge of Canon Hill, with views over Drummer Cove and stairs connecting the property to the water. An expansive wrap-around deck carries that outlook around the house, while the living room opens outward and the primary bedroom has a balcony of its own.

The original listing gives equal attention to the renovation and the ways the home can be used throughout the year. A separate-entry guest wing, office, workshop and two-car garage broaden the accommodation. An elevator serves all floors, and solar panels form part of the energy features described in the offering. For this property, the presentation needed to make those details easy to follow without losing the appeal of the cove. The outdoor setting supplies the immediate sense of place; the room arrangement and systems explain the substance behind it.

A sequence toward Drummer Cove.

A wrap-around deck, primary-bedroom balcony and water-access stairs connect different parts of the home with the cove. Each occupies its own place in the outdoor experience. The larger gathering area, the bedroom’s more private outlook and the route toward the shoreline give the water a presence throughout the property.

Spaces with different purposes.

A guest wing with its own entrance creates a distinct part of the home, while an office and workshop introduce other uses within the layout. The house is understood through those separate spaces as well as its main gathering rooms. Together they give the renovation a practical dimension beyond its outlook over the cove.

The working side of the renovation.

An elevator serving all floors and solar panels are documented features of the house. They add practical detail to a property whose most immediate impression comes from the cove. Alongside the deck, balcony and water access, these systems contribute to a fuller picture of the renovated home and the way its spaces connect.

The presentation

Make the property’s
character visible.

The listing’s positioning joins water access and renovation with practical information about the home.
