You make that sound like it is a problem, when "having a room for yourself" was considered a luxury only 100 short years ago, when you would have shared that very same room with four family members.
Living in a small flat (essentially everything in one room) even though I would not have to economically, it taught me about sufficiency and the cost of buying things. Empty spaces tend to fill up with stuff you buy. If you do not have empty space, you buy less, which is good for your mental well-being and the planet.

You can always go the park provided you got into that discipline, that you there is a park less than ten minutes away or that it's not too cold/raining/snowing: Not ideal. And it might a shitty square surrounded by cars. Mentally, it is also very helpful to have separate spaces for different aspects of your life. When your room is also your office and your kitchen, it doesn't make for good sleep, good work or good cooking.
