Single Story Homes for Sale in Highland, Utah
Highland sits on the bench between American Fork and Alpine, and the terrain here matters when you're shopping for a rambler. Much of the city is built on rolling foothill lots, so true single-story homes — no stairs to a basement entry, no split-level surprises — tend to cluster in the flatter pockets around Country French, Highland Glen, and the older sections off 6000 West and Alpine Highway. Lot sizes in Highland run larger than most of Utah County, with half-acre and full-acre parcels common, which means many of the ramblers here come with three-car garages, RV pads, and room for a shop. Expect main-floor square footage in the 2,200–3,800 range on most listings, with finished walkout basements adding another level of living space below grade.
Buyers gravitating toward one-level living in Highland are usually a mix of empty nesters staying close to the Alpine School District for grandkids, executives commuting to Lehi's Silicon Slopes who want a low-maintenance primary floor, and multi-generational families using the basement for adult children or aging parents. Prices for single-story homes here typically start in the high $800s for older ramblers and run well past $2M for newer custom builds near the Highland Country Club and Lone Peak views. Winters bring real snow at this elevation (around 4,900 feet), so a main-floor primary and attached garage are practical, not just convenient.

Common questions
About single story homes in Highland.
Are true single-story homes common in Highland? ▾
They're available but not the majority. Highland's hillside lots favor walkout ramblers and two-stories, so pure single-level homes with no basement stairs are a smaller slice of inventory. Most listings labeled rambler here have a finished basement below the main floor, which still lives as one-level if you don't need the lower space.
What price range should I expect for a rambler in Highland? ▾
Entry-level ramblers from the 1990s and early 2000s typically start in the high $800,000s to low $1Ms. Newer custom single-story builds on larger lots near Lone Peak or the country club regularly sell between $1.6M and $2.5M, especially with main-floor primaries, oversized garages, and view lots.
Which Highland neighborhoods have the most single-story options? ▾
Country French, the older streets off 11000 North, and parts of Highland Glen tend to have the highest concentration of ramblers. Newer pockets near the Highland Country Club also include custom one-level builds, though those carry a premium and sell quickly when they come up.
Do Highland ramblers usually have basements? ▾
Most do. Because lots slope toward the valley, builders take advantage with walkout or daylight basements that add 1,500–3,000 finished square feet. If you specifically want a slab-on-grade home with no basement at all, inventory is thinner and worth flagging for your agent.
How is the commute from Highland to Silicon Slopes or Salt Lake? ▾
Lehi's tech corridor is about 10–15 minutes via Alpine Highway and I-15. Downtown Salt Lake runs roughly 35–40 minutes off-peak, and the Salt Lake City airport is about 45 minutes. Highland's location keeps you close to Utah County jobs without giving up access to the north.
What school district serves Highland? ▾
Highland is part of Alpine School District. Most homes feed into Freedom Elementary or Westfield Elementary, Mountain Ridge Junior High, and Lone Peak High School, which consistently ranks among the top public high schools in the state.
