Cap Pavilion

About this Property:

Cap Pavilion, Cap Estate, Gros Islet, St Lucia

Cap Pavilion built in 1988 is situated on top of a knoll on the Northern tip of St Lucia in the prestigious Cap Estate. This home is constructed in an open architectural style with graceful coral stone pavilions inspired by the old plantation style designs of Oliver Messel in Mustique and Barbados. Framed by stoned archways leading off a central palm courtyard, and decorated in a signature Messel green, its white and airy rooms open on to a broad shady veranda with handsome fretwork balconies enjoying panoramic views over the cool and breezy Atlantic and the calmer Caribbean coastlines. Great efforts were made to leave the original vegetation of this 4 acres fenced property untouched.

The house is very much a part of the landscape with many open areas, which lead directly into the garden. The house has 3 main wings built around a central courtyard:
