South Ogden, Utah

Single Story Homes for Sale in South Ogden, Utah

South Ogden sits on the bench below the Wasatch, with streets that climb from Washington Boulevard up toward Skyline Drive and the foothills near Mount Ogden Park. A lot of the housing stock here dates from the 1960s through the 1980s, which means single story homes are genuinely common — rambler and ranch floor plans on quarter-acre lots rather than the newer two-story builds you see further south in Davis County. That history matters for buyers who want single-level living without settling for a tiny footprint; many of these ramblers run 1,800 to 2,800 square feet with finished basements adding even more space below grade.

Single story homes here appeal to a wide range of buyers: retirees moving down from bigger homes in Ogden Valley, younger families who want main-floor living with a finished basement for kids or guests, and anyone thinking ahead about stairs and long-term mobility. Proximity matters too — South Ogden puts you five minutes from McKay-Dee Hospital, a short drive to Weber State University, and about 35 minutes from the Salt Lake City airport up I-15. Winters bring real snow load on the bench, so a single level near the garage without exterior steps is a practical draw, not just a preference.

Common questions

About single story homes in South Ogden.

Are single-story homes common in South Ogden? ▾

Yes — South Ogden's mid-century building boom produced a large stock of ramblers, and they remain one of the most common layouts in the city. You'll see them concentrated in established neighborhoods like Burch Creek, Uintah Highlands, and the streets surrounding South Ogden Junior High.

Do most single-story homes here have basements? ▾

Most do. A typical South Ogden rambler has roughly equal square footage upstairs and down, with the main level offering full single-story living and the basement adding bedrooms, a family room, or rental potential. True slab-on-grade single-stories exist but are less common on the bench.

What's the price range for a one-level home in South Ogden? ▾

As of recent market activity, updated 1960s-era ramblers tend to start in the upper $300s to low $400s, while newer or larger single-level homes on the east bench can run $600K–$800K+. Custom builds with views toward Antelope Island push higher.

Are there newer single-story builds, or mostly older ramblers? ▾

Both. The bulk of inventory is mid-century, but pockets of newer construction exist along the eastern edge of the city near Skyline Drive and in small infill developments. Newer builds typically feature open floor plans, 9-foot ceilings, and attached three-car garages.

Is single-level living a good fit for South Ogden's terrain? ▾

It depends on the lot. Homes west of Harrison Boulevard sit on relatively flat ground, ideal for true no-stairs living. East of Harrison, lots get steeper, so many "single-story" homes are technically split-entries or have walkout basements — worth checking the listing photos and floor plan carefully.

How close are these homes to hospitals and shopping? ▾

McKay-Dee Hospital sits right in South Ogden off Harrison Boulevard, and Newgate Mall plus the Junction in downtown Ogden are both within about 10 minutes. That proximity to healthcare is a big reason single-story homes here move quickly with retirees and downsizers.
