Has anyone here taken a gap year purely to work AND moved out during it?

So I've decided that whilst I want to go to uni, I want to take a gap year. The main reason for this is I just want a year break from education. I would probably be working full time (around 30 hrs) and I would have more time to spend on my hobbies (boxing) during this gap year hopefully. However, I also absolutely hate half the people I live with (dysfunctional household) so I will definitely not be wanting to live here for another year. Here is where working full time will help, because I've done the maths and about half the money I'll be making will be spent on a small flat which is nothing special however is in a very good location. So overall, during this gap year I will have a years break from education, however I will still be keeping myself busy with work and hobbies, while also moving out of my current *****y house. Has anyone done this?
