Although it wasn't called "co-living," this is exactly how I was able to move out on my own in my early 20s. I rented a room in a converted second floor. 3 people, each with their own private (and individually locking) bedroom shared the kitchen and bathroom. It was 1/3 of what I would've paid for an apartment, even with a roommate and the only way I was able to afford to leave my parents' house. We absolutely need more of this type of housing.
Just wow. And those pictures of the renovated yet preserved features!
