"Fernberg", Governor's Residence, Brisbane, First Floor Plan, c 1884
Queensland State Archives posted a photo:
Johann Heussler, a wealthy Brisbane merchant purchases 22 acres of land from the Government in 1862 and made plans to build a house there. Local architect Benjamin Backhouse designed a house in 1865, to be constructed from stone excavated on site combined with a cement and lime mixture.
The Heussler family lived at Fernberg from 1865 until 1872 when the high cost of upkeep forces foreclosure on the property by the mortgagee.
Sir Arthur Palmer, Premier of Queensland (1870-1874), and later Lieutenant Governor resided in Fernberg from 1872 to 1881.
John Stevenson MP purchased Fernberg and commissioned the addition of a fine frontage to the building and considerably extended the grounds by purchasing adjacent land. He also installed the stained glass window depicting Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland (1306-1329) on the main internal stairway of the house.
The title to Fernberg was transferred in 1894 to Stevenson’s mortgagees,
