W.L. Martin Home Designs Plan #24626 is a smart, space-efficient option for developers and buyers who want a smaller footprint without giving up privacy and functionality. This two story home offers 1,328 square feet, 3 bedrooms, and 3 full bathrooms, making it a standout choice in today’s market for attainable single family construction.
As affordability continues to shape buying decisions, homes that deliver the right features in the right size are often the most competitive, especially when they support flexible living arrangements and long-term resale appeal.
One of the most compelling advantages of Plan #24626 is how it meets the needs of modern households where privacy matters. Each bedroom has access to its own full bathroom, which is a rare feature at this square footage and a huge value driver for younger generations, roommates, and even families with older children.
Whether the future homeowners are new professionals sharing a home, college-age renters, or multigenerational households that want separation without extra square footage, this layout supports comfortable living with fewer compromises.
The first floor includes 652 square feet designed for everyday convenience and strong first impressions. Just off the front porch, a study room sits at the front of the home, ideal for remote work, homework space, or a quiet flex room for hobbies. The first floor also includes a bedroom with a walk-in closet, plus its own full bathroom, which is a helpful solution for guests or for a resident who prefers avoiding stairs. Toward the back, the plan opens into a large great room that flows naturally into the kitchen, creating an open concept feel that lives larger than the numbers suggest.
The kitchen is designed to work hard for daily life and entertaining, with an island that houses the sink and dishwasher so prep and cleanup stay connected to the main living space. This setup keeps the cook involved in conversations and helps the home feel social and connected, which is a major selling point for first-time buyers and renters alike.
For developers, open concept great room layouts also tend to photograph well and present strongly in digital listings, which can improve lead quality and shorten decision cycles.
Upstairs, the plan continues its privacy-forward design with the primary bedroom positioned upstairs and paired with an en suite style bathroom and a large walk-in closet. The third bedroom sits at the front of the second floor and also has a dedicated full bathroom, reinforcing the “everyone gets their own” appeal that makes this plan so unique. A laundry area on the second floor adds daily convenience right where it is needed most, reducing trips up and down stairs with baskets.
