Alswel, also known as the William Lemp Estate House, is a house in Sunset Hills, Missouri built by German-American brewer William J. Lemp, Jr. in 1911. Designed by Lemp Brewery staff architect Guy Norton in the unusual Tyrolean Chalet style, it is situated on a bluff roughly 200 feet above the Meramec River in south St. Louis County, Missouri. The estate grounds once consisted of almost 200 acres, but sell-offs and residential subdivision have reduced this to a 2.1 acre lot on which the house currently sits.
