Single Story Homes for Sale in Bountiful, Utah
Bountiful has one of the deepest pools of single-story housing in Davis County, largely because the city did most of its growing between the 1950s and 1970s when the rambler was the default Utah floor plan. Drive the grid between 400 North and 1500 South and you'll see block after block of brick ramblers on flat quarter-acre lots, many with mature trees, RV parking, and the original hardwood still under the carpet. These homes appeal to two very different buyers: first-timers priced out of two-story new construction in Farmington and Kaysville, and downsizers leaving larger east-bench homes who want main-floor living without leaving the South Davis area.
Climate and geography matter here too. Bountiful sits at about 4,800 feet with real winters, and a single-level home means no hauling groceries up a flight of stairs in January or shoveling a steep driveway to reach a tuck-under garage. The flatter western neighborhoods near Legacy Parkway are easier to navigate year-round than the steep bench streets above US-89, though the bench trades convenience for Wasatch and Great Salt Lake views. Commute access is strong from either side: I-15 and the Legacy Parkway both put downtown Salt Lake within 15-20 minutes, and the SLC airport is roughly a 20-minute drive.

Common questions
About single story homes in Bountiful.
Are single story homes common in Bountiful? ▾
Yes, especially in the older flat sections west of US-89 and in mid-century neighborhoods near Mueller Park Junior High and Bountiful High. Many were built in the 1950s-70s as classic ramblers on quarter-acre lots. East-bench construction from the 1980s onward leans more toward two-story and split-entry designs, so true single-level homes on the bench are less plentiful and tend to sell quickly.
What's the price range for a single-level home in Bountiful right now? ▾
Expect roughly $500K-$700K for an updated rambler in west Bountiful or the older central grid, and $750K-$1.2M+ for single-story homes on the east bench with Wasatch or valley views. Anything truly one-level with a main-floor primary, no basement stairs to deal with, and a flat lot tends to carry a premium because downsizers compete hard for them.
Do most Bountiful ramblers have basements? ▾
Most do. A typical Bountiful rambler is single-story above grade with a full or daylight basement below, often finished with additional bedrooms, a family room, or a mother-in-law setup. If you want a true slab-on-grade home with zero stairs, the inventory is much thinner and worth filtering for specifically.
Which Bountiful neighborhoods have the most single-story inventory? ▾
The grid neighborhoods around 400 East and 1500 South, the Val Verda area, west Bountiful near Legacy Parkway, and pockets of Centerville just to the north all have heavy rambler concentrations. The Eaglewood and Bountiful Bench foothill areas have fewer single-levels but the ones that exist usually come with strong valley views.
Are single-story homes a good fit for aging in place here? ▾
They're one of the better options along the Wasatch Front for it. Bountiful sits close to Lakeview Hospital, has flat walkable sections in the older grid, and the city runs senior programs out of the South Davis Senior Activity Center. Buyers focused on aging in place should still check for step-down living rooms, sunken family rooms, and short hallways that complicate wheelchair access later.
How long do single-story listings typically stay on the market? ▾
Updated ramblers under $650K tend to move in under two weeks, often with multiple offers, because they draw both first-time buyers and downsizers from larger east-bench homes. Higher-end single-levels above $900K sit longer, usually 30-60 days, simply because the buyer pool is smaller at that price point.
