Single Story Homes for Sale in Daniel, Utah
Daniel is a small rural town tucked just south of Heber City in the Heber Valley, with the Wasatch peaks to the west and Strawberry Reservoir country to the east. Lots here run larger than what you'll see in Heber or Midway — one to five acres is common — and zoning leans agricultural-residential, which is exactly why single story floor plans dominate so much of the new construction. Builders working with wide parcels tend to spread homes horizontally: long ramblers with attached RV garages, walkout basements that keep the main level entirely on grade, and main-floor primary suites aimed at buyers planning to stay put long-term.
The single-level appeal in Daniel is practical, not cosmetic. Winters at 5,600 feet bring real snow, and a home without interior stairs means easier mobility in boots, simpler heating zones, and roof lines that are more forgiving when ice dams form. Buyers shopping this filter tend to be retirees relocating from Salt Lake County, equestrian families who want barn-to-house access without elevation changes, and remote workers who'd rather have a sprawling main floor than a tall footprint. Inventory in Daniel is thin at any moment — often fewer than two dozen active listings town-wide — so single story options move when they hit the market. Browse the current listings below to see what's available right now, and reach out if you'd like a heads-up on properties before they go live.

Common questions
About single story homes in Daniel.
Are single story homes common in Daniel? ▾
Yes — more so than in many Wasatch Front cities. Daniel's larger lots and rural-residential zoning encourage homes that spread out rather than build up, so ramblers and ranch-style floor plans are a meaningful share of the inventory. That said, total listing counts in Daniel are small at any given time, so single-level options come and go quickly.
What do single story homes in Daniel typically cost? ▾
Most single-level homes in Daniel land in the $900K to $1.8M range, with newer custom builds on multi-acre parcels pushing past $2.5M. Pricing depends heavily on lot size, water shares, and whether the home has a walkout basement (which technically adds a level but keeps main-floor living intact).
Do these homes usually sit on acreage? ▾
Most do. Daniel's minimum lot sizes are larger than neighboring Heber, and one- to five-acre parcels are typical. Buyers looking for a single-level home with horse property, a shop, or pasture frontage will find more options here than in Midway or Heber City proper.
How does the climate affect single-level living here? ▾
Daniel sits around 5,600 feet and gets real winters — snow load, icy walkways, and long heating seasons are part of life. A single story home means no stairs to navigate in boots, easier roof and gutter access, and simpler zoned heating, which is a real factor for retirees and anyone planning to age in place.
Are most single story homes in Daniel on septic and well, or city utilities? ▾
It varies by subdivision. Properties closer to the Highway 40 corridor often tie into Heber's culinary water, while homes further south and east frequently rely on private wells and septic systems. Ask for the water rights and septic inspection records early in your due diligence.
How far is Daniel from Park City and Salt Lake? ▾
Daniel is about 15 minutes south of Heber City, 30 minutes to Park City via Jordanelle, and roughly an hour to Salt Lake International via Parley's Canyon or Provo Canyon. That puts single-level homes here in reach of both Wasatch Back recreation and Salt Lake County jobs without the Park City price tag.
