One bathroom is sufficient for four occupants.

Four rooms rarely means four occupants. It'd be quite typical for 2-3 of those rooms to be doubles, with two people ... known or unknown to the LL.

I had a neighbour who squeezed 3 bunkbeds into each room, 6 people in a room.... a couple in the loft and 3 blokes shared the shed with an extension lead going out the kitchen window.

You were lucky! There were a hundred and sixty of us living in a small shoebox in the middle of the road.

Interested to see where the whole group would socialise in lieu of a sitting room then - assuming that the weather is too bad to do so in the garden.:cool:

As for big kitchen - I must admit I'd be surprised if many/if any of the properties have big kitchens (ie through lounge size and a dining table/chairs set up one end). I'd be willing to bet many of them are small - eg 10' x 12' for instance. So much for where they could hold a communal party or sit communally watching tv for instance...

These days people can be so busy working, they have no time to socialize, and many seem to not want to even talk to house mates let alone watch tv with them.
And on the kitchen side, every house and flat I lived in has had enormous kitchens. Maybe luck?
Oh sorry I lie, the house I am in right now had the tiniest kitchen ever, but we knocked down a wall to the dining room and made it way bigger.could probably put a new wall in and make a bedroom :rotfl:

Eta I lived under a small rock on the moors.
