W.L. Martin Home Designs has released ten new house plans this week spanning 1,120 to 2,102 square feet. The collection is intentionally versatile, with a mix of single story and two story layouts and a couple of thoughtfully crafted one story duplex designs. These plans are aimed at real projects and real budgets, offering developers and new home buyers fresh options that build efficiently and live comfortably.
Across the release you will see an emphasis on livability for different life stages. The square footage range keeps construction approachable for starter homes while still giving growing families room to breathe. Several plans also work well for multigenerational living, with layouts that make it easier to support an older family member while maintaining privacy and comfort.
New features found in our new home designs include our latest approach to combining the laundry area with a convenient pantry near the kitchen. This places everyday tasks in one central zone, which shortens trips during grocery unloads and keeps linens and cleaning supplies close to the heart of the home. We have also added new one story duplex designs. These bring neighborhood friendly fronts with individual entries and give builders flexible ways to add variety and attainability within a development. Alongside those, the collection includes both one story and two story single family homes, so you can match product to lot conditions and buyer preferences without leaving the series.
These choices track with what buyers consistently say they want. AARP’s Home and Community Preferences research has repeatedly found that a large majority of adults age 50 and over want to remain in their homes as they age, often cited around the seventy percent range in recent survey waves, which supports plans that make daily routines easier and more central. The National Association of Home Builders reports that a dedicated laundry room ranks among the most desired features in new construction and that a walk in pantry is also highly valued in kitchen planning.
The U.S. Census Bureau’s Survey of Construction shows that many new single family homes cluster around three bedrooms with two or more bathrooms and that typical sizes fall in the low to mid two thousand square foot range, so our 1,120 to 2,102 square foot plans align with the market segments that prioritize attainability and efficient space. Browsing is disabled here, so these citations reference well known surveys from AARP, NAHB, and the U.S. Census published in recent years rather than live linked sources, but the direction is consistent across editions.
Whether you are planning a compact starter, a comfortable home for a growing household, or a layout that supports an older parent with day to day convenience near the kitchen, this release was shaped to meet those needs without excess square footage. We welcome you to explore the new plans at wlmartinhomes.com. We believe they fit a wide range of family types and give developers fresh, buildable choices for communities focused on this size range. If you need small plan adjustments such as mirrored layouts or elevation tweaks, our team is ready to help you move from selection to permit with confidence.
