Your own private student halls in the centre of Lancaster
Twenty bedrooms sounds less like a house share and more like a small hall of residence.
That is effectively what Queen Street becomes.
The 20-bedroom option gives your group the whole building, combining two six-bedroom flats and one eight-bedroom flat under the same roof.
Across the property there are 20 furnished double bedrooms, seven bathrooms, three kitchens and three separate living areas.
Instead of twenty people trying to operate as one enormous household, everyday life naturally happens in three smaller groups. You still have the whole friendship group around you, but breakfast does not require a committee meeting.
Three kitchens makes twenty people surprisingly manageable
The kitchen provision is scaled for the building rather than expecting twenty people to somehow fit into one room.
Across the property there are six fridge-freezers, three washer-dryers, three microwaves, three dishwashers and five ovens and hobs.
That gives each part of the building its own proper cooking and food-storage setup.
The same applies to the living space. Three lounges mean one group can watch TV, another can revise and somebody else can have friends over without the entire building needing to agree on what happens next.
Seven bathrooms across twenty bedrooms works out at just under three bedrooms per bathroom, which is considerably more practical than the phrase "twenty-person house" initially suggests.
The whole group stays together
This is the real reason to choose the 20-bed Queen Street option.
Large friendship groups normally have to split across several streets, then spend the year organising whose house everyone is going to.
Here, everyone lives in the same building.
The three-flat layout still creates natural smaller households, but the rear courtyard and wider building keep everybody connected.
There is also secure internal bike storage and CCTV covering shared areas.
It gives you the social feel of student halls, but with a building taken by your own group rather than a corridor full of strangers.
Lancaster city centre outside the front door
Queen Street puts twenty different student schedules in a location where nobody needs to rely on somebody else's car.
The University of Cumbria's Lancaster campus is around a 12-minute walk away.
For Lancaster University students, direct services run from the city centre towards Bailrigg, including the 1/1A approximately every ten minutes.
Aldi and Tesco are both close to Queen Street, while the rest of Lancaster city centre gives the group cafés, takeaways, restaurants, shops and nightlife within walking distance.
With twenty people, somebody is always going somewhere. Living centrally means they can just go.
Bills included, because splitting utilities twenty ways would be ridiculous
The rent is bills included, covering TV licence, gas, electricity, water and broadband under the property's stated allowance.
Bayt confirms the allowance, deposit protection, tenancy responsibilities and bills package for the three flats before the group commits.
At this size, having the utility arrangements sorted before move-in is not merely convenient. It prevents one unfortunate person becoming treasurer for nineteen housemates.
