Single Story Homes for Sale in Richmond, Utah
Richmond sits in the north end of Cache Valley, about 15 miles from Logan and a straight shot up Highway 91 toward the Idaho line. It's a small farming town of roughly 2,800 residents with a tight grid of older streets, newer subdivisions creeping toward the foothills, and views east to the Bear River Range. Single story homes dominate the housing stock here — a mix of mid-century ramblers on quarter-acre lots near Main Street, 1990s and 2000s ranchers in neighborhoods like Cherry Creek, and newer single-level builds on larger parcels closer to the county line. Most have full basements, which effectively doubles usable square footage without adding stairs to the main living area.
Buyers gravitate to single-level living in Richmond for practical reasons: Cache Valley winters bring real snow and ice, and a one-story layout means no hauling groceries up steps in January or shoveling a second-story deck. Retirees from Logan and Smithfield often move north for the slower pace and lower lot prices, while younger families like the wider lots that come with rambler-style floor plans — room for a shop, garden, or a few animals on AG-zoned parcels. Commutes run about 25 minutes to USU or the Logan medical corridor, and Preston, Idaho is even closer for those working north.

Common questions
About single story homes in Richmond.
What's the typical price range for a single story home in Richmond? ▾
Most single-level homes in Richmond fall between the high $300Ks and mid $600Ks, depending on age, lot size, and whether the basement is finished. Older ramblers on smaller in-town lots sit at the lower end, while newer builds on half-acre-plus parcels near the foothills run higher. Homes with shops or acreage can push past $700K.
Do most single story homes here have basements? ▾
Yes — full or daylight basements are standard on ranchers built in Cache Valley, and Richmond is no exception. That means a 1,600 sq ft main level often comes with another 1,400-1,600 sq ft below, frequently with a second kitchen, extra bedrooms, or a walkout to the backyard. It's a common setup for multi-generational households.
Are there newer single-level subdivisions in Richmond, or mostly older ramblers? ▾
Both. The older core near Main and Center Street has 1950s-1970s ramblers on mature lots, while developments on the east and south sides of town have added newer single-story builds over the past 15 years. A few custom builders are still active on larger parcels toward the benches.
How does Richmond compare to Smithfield or Hyde Park for single-level homes? ▾
Richmond generally runs a bit cheaper than Smithfield and Hyde Park because it's farther from Logan, and lots tend to be larger. Inventory is thinner — Richmond is a smaller town — so buyers willing to commute an extra 10 minutes often get more land and a bigger garage for the same money.
Can I find a single story home with acreage in Richmond? ▾
Yes, especially on the outskirts and in unincorporated Cache County nearby. Parcels of 1-5 acres with a rambler, shop, and room for horses or livestock come up regularly, though they move quickly. Water shares and irrigation rights are worth asking about on any rural property here.
Is Richmond a good fit for retirees wanting one-level living? ▾
It works well for buyers who want a quiet small-town feel and don't mind driving to Logan for hospitals, shopping, and the airport shuttle. Logan Regional is about 20 minutes south, and Salt Lake International is roughly 90 minutes via I-15. Winters are real, so a heated garage and a manageable driveway are worth prioritizing.
