Roseville is a heritage-listed detached house at 56 Chester Street, Teneriffe, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built in 1886. It is also known as Uradah. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 25 June 1993. == History == This large single-storeyed residence is on the slopes of Teneriffe Hill. It was constructed about 1886 for George Myers, a successful Brisbane china and glassware merchant whose principal store was located in Queen Street. In 1889 he also erected a warehouse in Edward Street (now the Metro Arts Theatre).〔 The site originally was part of James Gibbon's Teneriffe estate. Myers had purchased it in 1885 from architect and newspaper proprietor James Cowlishaw, and it is possible Cowlishaw produced the design.〔 The residence was called Roseville, reputedly because of the large rose garden Myers established in the grounds.〔 He sold the property in 1887, and in 1891 the house passed to Mrs Ann Cowell, who renamed it Uradah after a family property at Longreach.〔 It has operated as a hostel run by the Society of the Divine Word, and subsequently became Roseville Restaurant.〔 In the early 1980s alterations and additions associated with its conversion to the restaurant included redecorated interiors, new stained glass work and renovated verandahs. A new double-storeyed service building was added at the rear, and the original kitchen wing was modernised. A timber stable building at the rear was demolished.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roseville, Teneriffe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
