Single Story Homes for Sale in Fruit Heights, Utah
Fruit Heights sits on the Wasatch bench between Kaysville and Farmington, and the terrain has a real effect on what gets built here. Most of the city climbs from Highway 89 up toward the foothills, so builders tend to default to two-story plans that use vertical space on smaller, sloped lots. That makes true single story homes — ramblers with the primary bedroom, kitchen, and living areas all on the main floor — a more limited piece of the inventory. When they do come up, they draw strong interest from Davis County downsizers, retirees coming off bigger homes in Kaysville or Layton, and buyers with mobility considerations who want to avoid stairs long-term.
The single-level homes you'll see in Fruit Heights tend to fall into two camps: older ramblers from the 70s, 80s, and 90s on larger, flatter lots closer to Mountain Road and Nicholls Road, and newer custom builds tucked into pockets of subdivisions like Eaglepointe. Most sit on quarter-acre to half-acre parcels with mature trees, west-facing views over the Great Salt Lake valley, and quick access to Highway 89 for the 25-minute drive into Salt Lake. Davis School District, the Kaysville rec center, and the Hill Air Force Base commute all factor into why buyers stay loyal to this corridor.

Common questions
About single story homes in Fruit Heights.
Are single story homes common in Fruit Heights? ▾
They're less common than two-story builds, especially in newer subdivisions along the bench where lots are steep and builders maximize square footage by going up. Most single-level homes in Fruit Heights are either older ramblers from the 1970s-90s on flatter lots near Mountain Road, or newer custom ramblers built specifically for buyers who wanted to avoid stairs.
What price range should I expect for a rambler here? ▾
Single story homes in Fruit Heights generally run from the upper $500Ks for older updated ramblers up to $1.2M+ for newer custom builds with finished basements and mountain views. Lot size and whether the basement is finished are usually the biggest price drivers.
Do most ramblers in Fruit Heights have basements? ▾
Yes — full basements are standard given the soil conditions and the way homes are built into the Wasatch foothills. Many buyers searching for single-level living still get a finished basement for guests, storage, or a rental setup, effectively doubling the usable square footage.
Which neighborhoods have the most single story options? ▾
Look around the older sections near Nicholls Road, the Mountain Road corridor, and pockets of Fruitland Drive. Newer rambler builds occasionally come up in the Eaglepointe and Maverik Hills areas, though those subdivisions lean heavily toward two-story floor plans.
Is single-level living practical with Fruit Heights' terrain? ▾
It depends on the lot. Homes on the upper bench often have walk-out basements and sloped driveways, which can mean stairs from the garage or to the backyard even on a rambler. Flatter lots closer to Highway 89 give you true one-level access in and out.
How quickly do single story listings sell in Fruit Heights? ▾
Ramblers tend to move faster than the city average because demand from downsizers and retirees outpaces supply. Well-priced single-level homes in good condition often go under contract within a couple of weeks, sometimes with multiple offers when interest rates cooperate.
