Summary - THE LION BREWERY FLAT 49 ST THOMAS STREET OXFORD OX1 1JE
3 bed 2 bath Penthouse
Spacious duplex with garage, studio and terrace ideal for city living or investment.
Extremely large duplex penthouse over 2,200 sq ft with high ceilings
A rare, top-floor duplex occupying over 2,200 sq ft in a converted historic brewery, recently renovated to a high specification. The penthouse offers expansive living spaces, a Bulthaup kitchen, underfloor heating, and air conditioning on both levels — ideal for buyers seeking turnkey, high-end central living with strong rental or resale potential.
The layout features a generous reception hall, principal bedroom with ensuite, two further bedrooms, two bathrooms plus cloakroom, and a spectacular open-plan top-floor sitting/dining/kitchen with east and west aspects. A west-facing terrace provides sunny outdoor space and town views, while a separate ground-floor double studio with toilet offers flexible ancillary accommodation or secure gym/cinema space.
Practical benefits include a secure garage with undercover parking, secure gated access, excellent broadband and mobile signal, and freehold tenure. The property sits in the heart of Oxford with immediate access to shops, cultural attractions and riverside walks.
Important considerations: the building is in a very high crime and very deprived neighbourhood classification and sits within a cosmopolitan, student-dominated area — factors that may affect family use, school catchment perception and long-term community feel. External amenity is mainly terraces rather than a substantial garden, and council tax is reported as quite expensive. Buyers should also confirm any communal service arrangements for the converted building.
