Living Lightly on the Land: Sunlight at The Cape, Cape Paterson

At HarrisBuild, we believe that a home should be as kind to the planet as it is beautiful and comfortable to live in. Sunlight, our latest project at The Cape in Cape Paterson, embodies this philosophy perfectly. As an award-winning home builder on the Bass Coast, we’re excited to share how this contemporary residence reflects our commitment to sustainability, efficiency, and craftsmanship.

Prioritising Sustainability in Modern Design

In designing Sunlight, we’ve brought together eco-friendly features to ensure a low environmental footprint without sacrificing style, comfort, or convenience. From double glazing and comprehensive insulation to solar technologies and an advanced heat pump, every detail works toward minimizing energy usage and reducing carbon emissions. For homeowners, this means lower energy bills, long-term financial savings, and a healthier living environment.

As house builders with a focus on energy-efficient homes, we know that good design isn’t just about aesthetics. Sunlight’s passive solar design maximizes sunlight in the winter through north-facing windows, naturally warming the interiors without relying on energy-intensive heating. In the summer, the home’s design enables efficient cross-ventilation; cool evening breezes can be invited through the home, creating a refreshing atmosphere with no need for artificial cooling.

Award-Winning Craftsmanship in the Heart of Gippsland

Our team at HarrisBuild is proud to be recognised among the top builders in the Gippsland region, specialising in custom homes that bring comfort, sustainability, and style together seamlessly. As a premier Cape Paterson builder, we’ve worked on numerous projects within The Cape, a community known for its high-performance homes and commitment to sustainability. Each project offers us the opportunity to innovate and raise the standard of what contemporary home builders can achieve.

What Makes Sunlight Special?

Sunlight is more than just an eco-friendly home; it’s a place where aesthetics meet practicality. The open-plan layout creates a natural flow between living spaces, allowing light and fresh air to reach every corner of the house. For us, the beauty of this design lies in the seamless connection it creates between the indoors and the natural landscape outside.

From sustainable features to elegant, functional design, Suncatcher showcases why HarrisBuild is trusted as a home builder on the Bass Coast. Our commitment to crafting homes that are economical to operate, delightful to live in, and gentle on the environment is evident in every detail of this project.
