Sun, Sea and Style!
If spectacular beachfront views with an urban advantage is what you seek, then you need not look any further than this contemporary 2 bedroom 1 bathroom first-floor apartment at “Seashells” on the revamped Scarborough esplanade, where magical sunsets over our crystal-clear Indian Ocean waters are complimentary – every single evening. This bright and breezy pad also doubles as a terrific Airbnb, short-term accommodation or rental option, if you are that way inclined.
Fresh-look facilities meet a fabulous new foreshore here, with the complex’s stunning and newly-refurbished pools complementing a dream beachside location for times when you want a more low-key experience. You will be left spoilt for choice by two outdoor swimming pools – one virtually at your doorstep, with sun lounges, outdoor entertaining areas and gas barbecues also amongst the fantastic extra features at Seashells.
Take the stairs or lift up from the secure lobby entrance to your own private apartment, where a spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area welcomes you inside. There, split-system air-conditioning meets a Chef range hood, an Omega ceramic cooktop, a Westinghouse under-bench oven, a stainless-steel Dishlex dishwasher, double sinks, tiled splashbacks and a breakfast bar for quick bites. The ocean vista from within is just as impressive as out on the full-width covered balcony, where your entire entertaining experience is accentuated by a picturesque sunset backdrop and an amazing outlook towards our famous Rottnest Island.
Double sliders reveal a delightful master-bedroom suite where there is space for a study nook – and where a ceiling fan, direct balcony access and separate “his and hers” full-height built-in wardrobes complement semi-ensuite access into a central bathroom with a bubbling spa bath, shower, toilet, vanity and ocean views from within, when the bedroom door is open. The second bedroom has a ceiling fan and full-height built-in robes too, whilst a separate laundry area sits next to the powder room and means you don’t even have to leave the apartment to wash and dry your clothes.
Imagine living just 15 minutes from the centre of Perth yet right away from the hustle and bustle of the city, with the likes of Fremantle and Hillarys Boat Harbour both also within easy reach. Brisk beach walks, surfing, pool and ocean swimming, kitesurfing, cycling and coastal dining are all the norm at Scarborough Beach, where the iconic Sunset Hill is a beautiful spot for picnics with more scenic views over the ocean.
Kids love The Whale children’s playground, plus there’s an all-ages climbing wall, half-court basketball and the popular Snake Pit skate-park bowl. Scarborough’s refurbished retail and dining precinct along includes hip cafes and casual dining options like The Peach Pit, El Grotto and The Galway Hooker Irish pub.
Summertime live entertainment at the amphitheatre creates a festive vibe, as do the ever popular Sunset Markets. Don’t forget about the major shopping centres (including new-look Karrinyup), top schools and public-transport options that all lie within a very, very close proximity of this commanding seaside location. Embrace the lifestyle you have always wanted right here, at Seashells – where every day feels like a vacation!
