New, elevated apartments at Waterline Place, Williamstown

Inspired by surrounding coastal topography and a rich local maritime history, Merchant is the final apartment building at the now established Waterline Place precinct. An awe-inspiring collaboration between the team at AVJennings and the internationally acclaimed architectural firm, Elenberg Fraser, Merchant comprises the grandest apartments of Waterline Place.

Merchant apartments boast opulent designs set against an ambient coastal backdrop and are offered in one, two and three-bedroom options. Exclusive Sky Home offerings are also available.

A new industry-acclaimed Williamstown precinct apt for downsizers

Merchant will be the last building of its height erected in Williamstown and the broader City of Hobsons Bay. This residential release is not only your final chance to purchase at the Waterline Place precinct but is the last opportunity to buy an apartment in the area with such elevated coastal views.

Also at Waterline Place, Empress has just won the ‘Residential Development – Australia’ category at the International Property Awards, highlighting the calibre of design you can expect from your Merchant home.

Merchant is a short stroll from the popular Nelson Place and Ferguson Street, where you can find local cafés, restaurants, and retail. Point Gellibrand Coastal Heritage Park and The Royal Yacht Club of Victoria are on your doorstep at Merchant. You’ll also be within walking distance of the local Williamstown and Williamstown Beach train stations for easy travel to and from the CBD, which is only 12 kilometres and 25 minutes by train away.

If you prefer to drive, the West Gate Freeway is easily accessible from Merchant. Alternatively, you can opt for the more scenic route across the bay via one of the local ferries.

Effortless modern living in a charming, engaged community

Merchant enjoys prime positioning in the enviable suburb of Williamstown. Nearby options for outdoor activities are plentiful, including the Hobsons Bay bike trail, Commonwealth Reserve gardens, the Liston and Williamstown Tennis Clubs, John Morley Reserve, Williamstown Sailing Club, Hobsons Bay Yacht Club, and the Williamstown Cricket Club. Local favourites are undoubtedly the Williamstown Botanic Gardens and Williamstown Beach, where you can organise a gathering with friends and family or venture past on your daily stroll.

Purchasers who value education will be spoilt for choice, with Williamstown Primary School, St Mary’s Primary School, and Williamstown High School all close to Waterline Place. A Coles supermarket is conveniently nearby, as is Williamstown Town Hall and Library.

Merchant also boasts a host of onsite luxury amenities for residents. These include a residents’ gym and select retail integrated into the building’s mixed-use ground floor.

A residents’ bike storage facility, and a communal rooftop garden with built-in barbeques, seating zones, a children’s play zone, and sweeping views over the CBD and Hobsons Bay also feature onsite.
