Single Story Homes for Sale in Marysvale, Utah
Marysvale sits in Piute County along the Sevier River, about three and a half hours south of Salt Lake City and just off Highway 89 between Richfield and Panguitch. It's a small mountain town of roughly 400 residents, surrounded by the Tushar Mountains and known for Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Paiute ATV Trail, and Bullion Canyon's old mining history. Single story homes make a lot of sense here — most of the housing stock is older ranchers, cabins, and modular homes on larger lots, and the aging-in-place crowd appreciates not dealing with stairs during snowy winters at 5,800 feet of elevation. Buyers looking at one-level properties in Marysvale are typically retirees, ATV enthusiasts wanting a basecamp, or families wanting acreage without Wasatch Front prices.
Lot sizes tend to run larger than what you'd see up north, and many single-level homes here come with detached shops, RV parking, or room for horses — practical features given that the nearest Costco is in Richfield 35 minutes away and Cedar City is over an hour south. Prices generally land well below the Utah median, though well, septic, and heating systems (propane is common) deserve careful inspection on older properties. Winters bring real snow, summers stay mild thanks to elevation, and the night skies are dark enough for serious stargazing. Browse the current single-level listings below to see what's available in town and on the outskirts toward Junction and Joseph.

Common questions
About single story homes in Marysvale.
What do single story homes in Marysvale typically cost? ▾
Most single-level homes in Marysvale trade well under the Utah statewide median, with older ranchers and modulars often landing in the low-to-mid six figures depending on acreage, condition, and outbuildings. Homes with shops, water rights, or larger parcels push higher. Cash offers are common here since some rural properties have financing quirks.
Are most homes in Marysvale already single story? ▾
Yes — the majority of housing stock is one-level ranchers, manufactured homes, or cabins, partly because of the town's age and partly because rural Utah construction favors single-level builds on larger lots. Two-story homes exist but are the minority, so inventory of one-level options is generally the bulk of what's listed.
What should I check on older single story homes here? ▾
Pay close attention to the well and septic system, the age and type of heating (propane, wood, or electric baseboard are all common), roof condition for snow load, and whether the property has irrigation or culinary water shares. Many homes were built before modern code, so insulation and electrical updates are worth budgeting for.
Is Marysvale a good fit for retirees wanting one-level living? ▾
It can be, especially for retirees who like quiet, ATV access, fishing, and don't mind driving 35 minutes to Richfield for groceries and medical care. The nearest hospital is Sevier Valley Medical Center in Richfield. Winters require snow removal, so a covered driveway or attached garage is worth prioritizing.
How much land typically comes with a single story home in Marysvale? ▾
Lot sizes vary widely — in-town parcels can be a quarter to half acre, while properties on the edges of town or toward Junction often sit on one to five acres or more. Acreage with water rights commands a meaningful premium and tends to sell faster than dry land.
How long do single story listings usually stay on the market? ▾
Rural Piute County moves slower than the Wasatch Front, and days-on-market can range from a few weeks to several months depending on price and condition. Well-priced homes with shops, acreage, or recent updates move quickest, while fixer-uppers with septic or water issues tend to sit longer.
