Open By Appointment
Nestled amongst Scarborough's iconic Norfolk Island pine trees, Somerville presents elegant, exclusive, beach side residences designed and delivered by multiple award-winning Perth architect David Hartree.
ONLY EIGHT APARTMENTS
A Serene Coastal Lifestyle
Defined by its coastal location amongst Norfolk Island pines, Somerville epitomizes relaxed, beach side living. This intimate, boutique development comprises eight luxurious residences, sitting discreetly in a tree-lined cul-de-sac just 350m from the pristine beaches of Scarborough.
On arriving at Somerville, residents and guests experience a landscaped concentration of greenery and texture, leading to a distinctively grand entrance.
"These apartments are in a private location; you're able to step away from the hustle and bustle of seaside life and retreat to this secluded, tranquil environment - your home." Hartree + Associates Architects.
World Class Beach side Living
Scarborough Beach, with its stunning white sands, is an historic and iconic home of WA's famous relaxed
beach culture. The foreshore is currently undergoing a $100 million transformation to create one of the
nation's best contemporary beach destinations. This vibrant hub boasts new restaurants, cafs, bars, shopping and entertainment precincts - all complemented by new boardwalks, cycle paths, recreational spaces, shade and uninterrupted views of delightful turquoise waters from Fremantle to Hillarys.
Set to open in early 2018, the visionary new Scarborough Beach Pool is geothermally-heated and will cater to a diverse range of community, health and recreational uses during all seasons. Scarborough's beach front will be a coastal destination like no other - right on the very doorstep of Somerville.

Coffee Breaks and Coastal Walks
At Somerville, the morning sun paints the pine trees in a picturesque glow, setting the scene for a relaxed day ahead. Your apartment is luxurious and low maintenance, its location offering you the choice to wander down to Scarborough's beachfront for coffee, to take a leisurely stroll along the coastal boardwalk, or to enjoy a pre-breakfast swim in the beautiful Indian Ocean. What does the rest of the day hold? That's up to you: a work-out and a swim at the new pool, health and fitness facility, followed by lunch with ocean views at one of Scarborough's many cafes, restaurants or bars - or, head a little further north up the coast to Trigg Island, or south to City Beach, to enjoy everything that these neighbouring locations have to offer. At the end of the day, taking in our famous WA sunsets, you'll know that you picked the perfect location to call home.
Architecturally Inspired By Nature
Responding to its revered beach side location and the tranquillity of the mature Norfolk Island pines on site, Somerville is architecturally unique: sculptural form responds to nature, creating a refined and elegant street presence. Somerville is instantly recognisable, comprising seven apartments and one penthouse. The building design is influenced by simple, modernist principles.
"These ideas express themselves through clever planning and a composition of textural elements and luxurious materials." Hartree + Associates Architects
Welcome to Your Exclusive New Home
Apartment planning is resolved to achieve privacy both within and between residences. Generously proportioned, sophisticated living spaces enable entertaining; kitchens with highest specification appliances and seamless inbuilt refrigeration offer delight to the home cook; light-filled bedrooms enjoy separation from living areas and extra storage is provided throughout. Somerville Residences are apartments that are move-in ready.
"With a warm, neutral colour palette and luxury specifications, each apartment offers residents beauty, comfort, and a blank canvas on to which they can express their own individual style. Interiors are oriented to take full advantage of their aspect amongst surrounding trees, blurring the boundary between inside and out, creating spaces filled with natural, filtered light and gentle breezes."
