2 Cape Court Cape
There is little that separates this home from the landscape it inhabits. Sited within Cape Schanck’s tightly held National Estate, the residence sits low against windswept banksia and native scrub, its form emerging from the terrain rather than imposing upon it. Bass Strait stretches beyond, visible in fragments through the tree line before opening into full, uninterrupted views.
Inside, five bedrooms and six bathrooms unfold across a plan built for scale without excess: rooms that hold space for both gathering and retreat. The relationship to the outdoors remains constant throughout, the coastal light shifting through the day much as it does across the fairway just beyond the boundary – the 14th hole of The Old Course.
At over 3,500 square metres, the block itself resists comparison. On a rare parcel within protected land, it is caught between ocean, fairway and bush. It is a setting that asks little of its architecture beyond getting out of the way, and here, it largely does.
