If you're looking for value, then you can't look past Cape Paterson as one of Australia's best value beach towns.  What makes Cape Paterson so great is that it has the vibe of a seaside town with two surf beaches - a brand new Surf Life Saving Club about to be constructed and a tavern to enjoy a summer ale, while the house costs are not going to price you out of the market.

Sustainable home designs are now available for free online as Brendan Condon, director of The Cape, Cape Paterson encourages prospective home builders to go green. The Initiative offers 6 individual sets of plans, 5 single storey and 1 double story, which vary according to site size and have energy ratings from 7.2 stars right up to 10 stars....! The 10 star home has been built by Dave Martin of The Sociable Weaver. You may recognise Dave from Grand Designs and Croft House fame.

Earlier today, we visited a home in Cape Paterson built with sustainable design principles. We sat down with Tad from the Adapt Design Group, the building designer, to learn more about the key features of sustainable living and life in Cape Paterson. Tad brings a deep-seated belief in the power of unique, common sense, and energy efficient design that enhances lifestyle and well-being.
