Single Story Homes for Sale in Midvale, Utah

Midvale's housing stock runs older and more varied than a lot of Salt Lake Valley suburbs, which works in favor of single story buyers. Neighborhoods like Union Fort, Midvale Village, and the streets around Bingham Junction mix in a good number of 1950s-70s ramblers alongside newer construction, so there's more single-level inventory here than you'll see in newer-built cities like Herriman or Daybreak. Prices tend to sit below Sandy and Cottonwood Heights for comparable square footage, which matters if you're trying to get a no-stairs layout without paying a premium for it. The Bingham Junction area near the TRAX Blue Line and the shops on 700 West has also added some newer single-level patio homes aimed at buyers who want low maintenance without leaving the valley's center.

A single story layout in Midvale isn't just about avoiding stairs — it's practical for a city with an aging-in-place population and a growing number of buyers downsizing from bigger homes in Sandy or Draper without leaving the area. Flat, walkable blocks near Midvale City Park and the Jordan River Parkway trail make one-level living easy to combine with an active outdoor routine, and proximity to Intermountain Medical Center is a real draw for retirees and anyone planning for the long term. Lot sizes on the older ramblers also tend to be bigger than newer subdivisions, giving you yard space without a second floor to maintain.

Common questions

About single story homes in Midvale.

Are single story homes common in Midvale?

Yes, especially in the older sections built between the 1940s and 1970s east of State Street and around Main Street. Post-2000 infill and townhome projects lean toward two-story builds, so most ramblers on the market are existing homes rather than new construction.

What's the typical price range for a rambler in Midvale?

Most single-level homes in Midvale fall in the mid-$400Ks to high-$600Ks depending on lot size, basement finish, and whether updates have been done. Bridgeview-area homes and properties closer to Fort Union tend to sit at the higher end of that range.

Do single story homes in Midvale usually have basements?

Most do. The classic Midvale rambler is a 3-bed up, 2-bed down layout on a quarter-acre or smaller lot, which effectively doubles the living space. Daylight or walkout basements are less common here than in foothill cities since most of Midvale sits on flatter valley floor.

Is Midvale a good fit for buyers downsizing from a larger home?

It works well for downsizers who still want a yard and a garage but don't need stairs. TRAX access at the Midvale Center and Fort Union stations, plus quick I-15 and I-215 connections, make appointments at IMC and trips downtown easy without a long drive.

How old are most of the ramblers on the market here?

The bulk were built between 1955 and 1985, with some 1940s cottages near historic Main Street and a smaller pocket of newer single-level builds in East Midvale. Expect to budget for furnace, roof, or sewer line updates on anything that hasn't been recently renovated.

Which school district serves single story homes in Midvale?

Midvale is split between Canyons School District on the east side and Jordan School District on the west side of I-15. Hillcrest High, Midvale Middle, and Midvalley Elementary cover much of the rambler inventory east of the freeway.
