There are many benefits to living in a large shared student house during your uni life in Leeds. And, if you're considering living in a 5-bed, 6-bed or even 7-bed student house in Leeds, the good news is that we have plenty of options available for you to choose from in the Burley, Hyde Park, Meanwood and Headingley areas.
If, however, you’re still undecided, here are some reasons why living in a large house could be better suited to your student lifestyle…
Spacious Living
If you’re a fan of space, then large student houses generally provide more spacious rooms and common areas than a small flat or apartment would. Big student houses offer plenty of room for studying, socialising, and relaxing, so you'll have more freedom to spread out and create a comfortable environment to hang out in with your housemates. Plus, if you’re really lucky, you might get a garden or outside area to share too!
Splitting the Rent
Finding a large student house in Leeds means you can share the rent with friends, making it more affordable while still living in a great location. Living alone can be expensive, however, splitting costs in a big shared house makes it easier to live in a prime area without breaking your student budget —rent, utilities, and bills can all be shared to minimise expenditure each month, leaving you more cash to spend on the fun stuff!
Never be Lonely
If you're wanting to enjoy quality time with friends during your uni years, then a large student house is ideal. You can bond in shared living spaces, like the living room and kitchen, while still having space for personal time in your own room. Plus, you'll always have company to enjoy events and explore Leeds together! Sharing a large student house allows you to form close friendships and build a support social network away from home. Whether it’s for study groups, celebrations, or just hanging out with a movie after a long day of lectures, living with others ensures you’ve always got someone to talk to.
Sharing the Responsibilities
In a large student house, sharing chores and responsibilities makes things easier for everyone. Jobs like cleaning, taking out the bins, and cooking dinner can be split so that one person isn't burdened with everything every day all on their own. Keeping on top of shared jobs also helps maintain a tidy, organised house so everyone feels more relaxed and comfortable in their student home.
Better for Socialising
Large student houses offer the perfect space for hosting gatherings, dinners, and study sessions. The extra room means everyone can fit in comfortably, and you won’t feel cramped when you have family or friends over to visit.
Best Choice of Locations
Many of the large student houses in Leeds are located in popular student areas close to the universities, transport links, bars and restaurants. This makes it easy to get to class or enjoy the city’s vibrant lifestyle without the stress of long commutes.
So, as you can see, choosing a large student house in Leeds is a smart choice if you’re seeking more space, sociable time and value for money. If you want to enjoy university life with your friends in comfort, this could be the perfect option!
