Single Story Homes for Sale in Tabiona, Utah
Tabiona sits in the upper Duchesne River valley on Utah's North Slope, a small ranching community about 25 miles northeast of Duchesne and roughly two and a half hours from Salt Lake City. Elevation here runs around 6,500 feet, winters are cold with real snow load, and lots tend to be larger — anywhere from a half-acre in town to multi-acre parcels along the river and out toward Hanna and Stockmore. Single-story homes make a lot of sense in this country: they're easier to heat with a single wood or propane system, simpler to keep ice and snow off the roofline, and a better long-term fit for the retirees and ranchers who make up much of the local buyer pool. Most existing ramblers in the area sit on crawl spaces or full basements, which gives owners extra storage and a mechanical room buffered from sub-zero January nights.
Inventory in Tabiona is thin year-round — this is a town of a few hundred residents — so single-level listings can range from older farmhouses on irrigated acreage to newer modular and stick-built ramblers tucked off SR-35. Buyers usually come here for the fishing on the Duchesne, access to the Uintas, and the quiet that the Wasatch Front doesn't offer anymore. Plan on driving to Duchesne or Heber for full grocery runs, and check well, septic, and water-share details carefully on rural parcels.

Common questions
About single story homes in Tabiona.
Why are single-story homes popular in Tabiona? ▾
The high elevation and heavy winter snow make ramblers practical — one heating zone, simpler roof shedding, and no stairs to navigate when you're hauling firewood or groceries in January. They also suit the older ranching and retiree demographic that makes up a big share of local owners.
How much land typically comes with a single-level home here? ▾
Lot sizes vary widely. In-town parcels on Main or around the school can be a quarter to a half-acre, while properties along the Duchesne River or toward Hanna often run from 1 to 40+ acres, sometimes with irrigation shares and outbuildings included.
Are most single-story homes in Tabiona on well and septic? ▾
Yes. Outside the small culinary water service area in town, expect private wells and septic systems. Ask for recent well logs, flow tests, and septic inspection records before closing — replacement costs are significant out here.
How is winter access to single-level homes off the main highway? ▾
SR-35 is plowed and maintained, but side roads and long private driveways can drift heavily. Many owners run their own plows or contract with a local. If a home sits down a steep or shaded lane, factor winter access into your decision.
What's the typical price range for a single-story home in Tabiona? ▾
Pricing swings hard based on acreage, water rights, and condition. Modest older ramblers on small lots have traded in the mid-$200s to low-$400s, while updated homes with acreage, river frontage, or working ag features can run well above $600,000.
Can I find newer-construction single-level homes in the area? ▾
Occasionally. New builds are uncommon given the small population, but you'll see modular ramblers and some custom stick-built homes from the last 10–15 years scattered through the valley. If new construction matters to you, be prepared to buy land and build.
