Young Creek’s Two Townhome Layouts, Side by Side

All 17 homes share a community park and a pond.
Household-Size Fit: What the Data Says
Gwinnett County averages 2.98 people per household. For a household of three, Building 3 gives everyone a bedroom with none left over. Buildings 1 and 2 add the fourth room, which becomes the home office, guest room, or nursery.
Multigenerational living is growing too: 18% of Americans lived in such households in 2021. If a parent may move in someday, note that, per the floor plans, both layouts put a bedroom, a bathroom, and a walk-in closet on the first floor. The fourth bedroom in Buildings 1 and 2 sits on the third floor with the primary suite.
Both layouts are larger than the typical new home: the median single-family home completed in 2024 measured 2,146 sq ft (a Census category that includes attached townhomes). Building 3 is about 14% larger, and Buildings 1 and 2 about 31% larger.
Metro Atlanta ranks third nationally for build-to-rent homes under construction. As you compare build-to-rent communities and other new townhomes, look at floor area, garage, and layout, not just price.
Townhome vs. Single-Family Home: What You Trade
The median new detached home sold in 2025 sat on a lot of about 8,543 sq ft. That is yard you maintain. A townhome trades most of it for interior space: the Building 3 layout’s 2,441 sq ft sits all under one roof, with a community park and pond nearby for outdoor time.
Which Layout Fits Your Household?
- 2 to 3 people, one home office: Building 3. Bedroom three becomes the office.
- 4 or more people: Buildings 1 and 2. Each child keeps a room.
- Two remote workers plus guests: Buildings 1 and 2. Two closed-door workspaces and a guest bed don’t fit in three bedrooms.
- Multigenerational household: Either layout works, since both have a first-floor bedroom and bathroom. Choose Buildings 1 and 2 only if you also need the extra top-floor bedroom.
- Budget-first: Building 3, then check pricing using the steps below.
Budget Matching: What the Extra Bedroom Costs
Ask for current pricing on both layouts, and compare the same unit type (corner or standard) in each building. Subtract the Building 3 price from the Buildings 1 and 2 price, then divide by 366 sq ft.
The result is the price per sq ft of the added bedroom and space. Compare it with each home’s overall price per sq ft to see whether the extra room carries a premium.
Smart Features: What to Ask
The website lists the smart home package but not what each device controls. Ask during your tour how the thermostat and doorbell connect to your phone. A 2,807 sq ft home has more space to heat and cool than a 2,441 sq ft one.
Corner or Standard?
Both buildings offer both types. In a townhome row, a corner unit typically shares a wall on one side instead of two. Ask which homes are corners, which way they face, and how the outdoor space differs.
