Glen Lyon, Ashgrove, Heritage villa in Ashgrove, Queensland, Australia.
The two-story brick residence features wide verandahs with cast-iron balustrading, Corinthian pillars, and a central stained glass window displaying 'Semper fidelis'.
Built between 1876 and 1877 for merchant Alexander Stewart, Glen Lyon served as the centerpiece of a 250-acre estate extending along both sides of Enoggera Creek.
The property includes a chapel converted from a former billiards room, reflecting its period as a monastery under the ownership of Marist Fathers from 1927 to 2003.
Located at 34 Glenlyon Drive, the residence maintains its original bunya pines along the entrance driveway and contains multiple marble fireplaces throughout the interior.
South Sea Islander workers constructed the building using bricks made from clay sourced directly from the property grounds during its initial construction phase.
