Abstract

Glen Lyon is a heritage-listed villa at 34 Glenlyon Drive, Ashgrove, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1876 to 1877. It is also known as Marist Fathers Monastery. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.

This two-storeyed residence, the second oldest in the Ashgrove area, was erected in 1876-7 for Alexander Stewart, a partner in the merchant firm of Stewart & Hemmant. It was the centrepiece of a 250 acres (100 ha) estate acquired by Stewart in 1875 and 1876. The property, which extended along both sides of Enoggera Creek, was named Glen Lyon after Stewart's birthplace in Scotland (Glen Lyon). (Wikipedia)
