Just nine kilometres from the city, and with its own relaxed bayside lifestyle, Williamstown truly offers

the best of both worlds.

From Waterline Place it’s only a short walk to the Williamstown railway station, with trains placing you in the CBD in just

25 minutes. The city is also directly reached by ferry across the water, or by one of the area’s many bike paths. Melbourne’s

flourishing western suburbs such as Yarraville and Spotswood are also just a few train stops away.

Where else can you spread out with a picnic in the Botanic Gardens, wander tree-lined streets of heritage buildings, stop for a coffee

overlooking the water, enjoy the company of a close-knit community – and still be less than 9km from the city?

Williamstown is one of Melbourne’s best kept secrets, balancing a historic setting with every modern convenience. Boasting a range

of shops, from eclectic boutiques to major brands, and education options from kindergarten all the way to VCE at several prestigious schools,

as well as excellent healthcare and public transport, this is a thriving and well-established suburb.

From every angle, life in Williamstown is one of abundant choice and absolute convenience.

Running by the shore. Shopping in the village. Relaxing in the gardens. Williamstown offers an idyllic pace of life unlike anywhere else.

Living at Gem means walking to early morning breakfasts and coffees along vibrant Nelson Place, and discovering new restaurants and bars in the evening. Being active is also easy, with plenty of green parks, picturesque beaches and endless running tracks all close to home.

Artist’s Impression

Williamstown is inextricably linked to the maritime history of Melbourne. The architectural team at Elenberg Fraser has been inspired by this rich heritage to create Gem apartments within the Waterline Place precinct. The name is a

reference to the Gem pier which once welcomed boats returning to the shore.

For the design of Gem, the soft, billowing forms of yachts’ sails catching the wind led to the building’s flowing lines and curvilinear forms.

This is a naturally elegant building, perfectly at home by the water and among the restrained neighbourhood character of the area.

From the full-length balconies to the light-filled interiors, living at Gem means enjoying the luxury of extra space. As well as full-width windows in living rooms and

bedrooms, some residences enjoy a dual aspect, with views in opposite directions, while others enjoy a corner position to take in a broad vista of the area.

Gem offers a range of floorplan options to meet the needs of every lifestyle, making each home truly unique. And with only a handful of residences around every lift

well, living here offers a rare feeling of community and exclusivity.



Beyond its visual beauty, the architecture of Gem embraces the panoramic views towards the bay on one side and out over the rooftops towards the water on the other.

The generous terraces of Gem allow residents to enjoy the outdoor lifestyle that Williamstown is famous for, with space for alfresco dining, built-in planters full

of greenery and places to relax while enjoying gentle sea breezes.

Understanding the sophistication of Williamstown, the design team at Elenberg Fraser has created kitchens of impressive size and style.

With premium appliances, large preparation areas and extra storage, as well as optional butler’s pantries and island benches with a built-in breakfast bar,

these kitchens are designed for both daily use and special gourmet celebrations.

‘ IN A WORLD THAT TENDS TOWARDS GENERIC , GEM IS FOCUSED ON THE SPECIFIC AND BESPOKE. WE’RE INTERESTED IN GIVING PEOPLE GENUINE OPTIONS TO CUSTOMISE THEIR HOME.’— ELENBERG FRASER

The interiors of Gem have been carefully designed in a simple yet sophisticated fashion.

Elegant materials and a rich textural palette have been employed in every room, with impeccable detailing such as the use of stone

and customised fixtures and fittings. These elements and more give each home a sense of individual style.

The master bedroom suites of some residences feature an additional walk-through room by the bedroom, and a wardrobe

which can be tailored with extra shelving, shoe racks and bespoke storage requirements.

The bathrooms are private sanctuaries with elegant touches in the design.

With the option of dual basins and a large bathtub, as well as an expansive mirror and intelligent storage, the luxurious features include a sophisticated Herringbone

pattern on the tiles.

Bustling Nelson Place is just a stroll away from Waterline Place.

For over 85 years we’ve helped build brighter futures by creating communities people want to belong and grow with.

We know everyone has different needs and wishes for the place they live. That’s why we offer a range of ways to get the home you want. You can buy a block of land, a finished home, townhome, terrace or apartment. We can

work with your builder, or help you choose one.

We also know a home is part of a community, which is why we make sure open spaces, community hubs and pathways are incorporated into every development.

It’s why we locate our developments close to schools, shops and transport. It’s why AVJennings is your community developer.

Elenberg Fraser – not your average architecture firm. An integrated design practice operating across the Asia-Pacific region, our buildings prove that good design leads to economic, social and cultural benefits.

But what makes us so special?

Rather than applying a house style, our buildings are conceived in their own right, responding to their specific site, location and purpose. We don’t generalise across projects either – our job is to uncover and

express the unique identity of each project, through built form.

The outcome is sensory – architecture that people can feel, not just see. Architecture that makes people think, acknowledging the origins of architecture

and its plethora of influences, both ancient and modern.
