Fernside, Heritage-listed villa in East Toowoomba, Australia.
The brick villa features a symmetrical design with a hipped roof, multiple verandahs, and rendered chimneys spanning across Fernside Street.
John Alexander Boyce, who served as Clerk of Petty Sessions in Toowoomba, acquired the land between 1876 and 1877 to construct this residential property.
The architecture represents late 19th-century residential design in Queensland, with original internal details maintained throughout numerous rooms of the villa.
Positioned on gently rising terrain, the property provides direct views toward the Great Dividing Range and includes established gardens with a carriageway.
The villa remained in the Boyce family's possession for over 100 years until 1978, with Margaret Annie Griffiths maintaining ownership until age 100.
