Single Story Homes for Sale in Taylorsville, Utah
Taylorsville sits right in the middle of the Salt Lake Valley, bordered by West Valley City, Murray, and West Jordan, with Bangerter Highway and I-215 making the airport and downtown SLC both about 15 minutes away. The city built out heavily between the late 1950s and the 1980s, and that timing matters when you're shopping single story homes here — a big chunk of the inventory is original ramblers on quarter-acre lots, often brick, three bedrooms up with a full basement that effectively doubles the livable square footage. Newer single-level builds do exist, mostly tucked into infill subdivisions near 4700 South and along Redwood Road, but the bread and butter of one-level living in Taylorsville is the mid-century rambler that's been updated over the years.
For buyers who want to avoid stairs — retirees aging in place, families with young kids, anyone with mobility considerations — Taylorsville delivers a lot of value compared to similar one-level homes in Holladay or Sandy. Prices generally run below the Salt Lake County median, Granite School District serves most of the city, and you're a short drive to Valley Fair Mall, the Jordan River Parkway trail system, and Taylorsville-Bennion Heritage Center. Lot sizes tend to be generous for the valley, which means room for RV parking, a shop, or a garden without the HOA headaches common in newer developments.

Common questions
About single story homes in Taylorsville.
What style of single story home is most common in Taylorsville? ▾
The dominant style is the mid-century brick rambler, typically built between 1960 and 1985, with three bedrooms and one or two bathrooms on the main floor plus a full basement. You'll also see some 1990s-era patio homes and a smaller number of newer single-level builds in infill pockets. True no-basement single story homes are less common but they do come up.
Are single story homes in Taylorsville good for aging in place? ▾
Many are, especially the ramblers with main-floor laundry and an attached garage on a flat lot. The catch is that older homes often have narrow hallways and standard-width bathroom doors, so if wheelchair access matters, look closely at the floor plan or budget for modifications. Lot grading in Taylorsville is generally flat, which helps with zero-step entries.
How do prices compare to two-story homes in the same neighborhoods? ▾
Single story homes in Taylorsville often command a modest premium per square foot on the main level because demand from downsizers and accessibility-focused buyers is steady. Total price can still come in lower than a two-story simply because the above-grade square footage is smaller. Finished basements close that gap quickly.
Do these homes typically have basements? ▾
Yes — the vast majority of Taylorsville ramblers sit on full basements, and many are finished with extra bedrooms, a family room, and a second bathroom. That's worth knowing if you're specifically trying to avoid stairs entirely, because true slab-on-grade single story homes are a smaller slice of the market here.
What school district serves Taylorsville? ▾
Most of the city falls within Granite School District, with schools like Taylorsville Elementary, Eisenhower Junior High, and Taylorsville High serving the area. A small western portion sits in Granite as well but feeds into different boundaries, so always confirm the assigned school for a specific address before writing an offer.
How long do single story listings usually stay on the market here? ▾
Well-priced ramblers in clean condition tend to move quickly because they appeal to multiple buyer pools at once — first-time buyers, investors, and downsizers. Homes needing significant updates sit longer, especially if the kitchen and bathrooms are still original. Spring and early summer see the fastest turnover.
