I lived in for three years in a house with 55 other women. My mantra was "you have the rest of your life to live in an apartment. When else can you live with 55 of your closest friends?" It was an awesome experience and I'd recommend it to anyone. We only had one single and it was the President's room. We had quite a few 2 and 3 girl rooms, two four girl rooms, one five girl and one six girl. We got rid of our sleeping porch the year before I moved in so we thought we were really fortunate to get to sleep in our rooms as sophomores.
As for sharing space, it really depends on your chapter house. There are some houses where you can find spaces that are all yours. Mine wasn't really one of them. Of course there were people who we knew needed more personal space and we tried to give it to them but they knew that the house was not the optimal place to find it.
The greatest thing about living in (in a large chapter particularly) was how you got to know people when you all had papers due on the same day or had similar midterm schedules. Also, we had to change rooms each quarter, so I got to live with people who I didn't know as well and became very close to people I might not otherwise have taken the time to get to know.
Good luck!
