Have you ever heard the saying “less is more”? Well the sentiment definitely applies when it comes to living in a studio apartment. Check out the benefits below.

A 1 bed studio has lots of advantages that you probably have not thought about. Of course you may have to forego the grand piano, but you don’t play anyway so what’s the problem?

Unlike a shared house or apartment, you’ll have your own space. You can do what you like, when you like without worrying too much about what your non-existent housemates think. But don’t forget, you will still have neighbours!

Studio apartments are so much more energy efficient and you can ensure that you stay nice and warm all winter long, without worrying about a hefty heating bill dropping through your door.

A smaller place actually makes living a whole lot easier as there is so much less to clean. Once you’ve cleaned the lounge, you’ve also done your bedroom. It simplifies everything and you end up with more time to do the things you like.

A 1 bed studio usually comes with a cheaper price tag than larger spaces. Of course that might seem like an obvious statement, but opting for a studio might mean you can afford a better location within popular areas of the city.

If you have already written a list of things you are going to need for your new home, you might have worried about the length of it. A studio apartment takes away this worry as studio apartments will likely be furnished with a double bed, desk, wardrobe, chair, sofa, microwave, kettle, and toaster etc.

With most studio apartment blocks housing anywhere from 50 to 300 students, there is plenty is possibility to make new friends all from around the world.
