The newest single-story listings.

Fed straight from the local MLS and filtered to homes listed as one story: new Clearfield listings appear here as they list, and sold homes drop off. The read on the rambler that built this city is just below.

If the grid looks thin today, that is the real Clearfield market, not a glitch: this is a nearly built-out city of 7.75 square miles, so true one-level listings turn over a finite older stock and can run lean some weeks. Tell me what you are after and I will have the Clearfield-area agent I work with flag the next match the morning it lists.

The local read


What single-story homes mean in Clearfield.

On a Utah listing sheet the word for a single-story home is rambler, what the rest of the country calls a ranch, and in Clearfield the rambler is the staple. This city grew up around Hill Air Force Base and the old Navy supply depot, and the 1940s-to-1960s building boom filled the State Street historic core with modest brick ramblers and cottages on established lots with mature trees. Then the 1960s-to-1980s expansion pushed more ramblers and split-entry homes out into the east and west residential quadrants. The result is one of Davis County's more attainable established markets, and the single-level rambler is the bread and butter of it.

Here is the Clearfield catch, and it is the opposite of a warm-weather slab market. The city sits on flat Lake Bonneville lakebed, the Wasatch Front frost line is deep, so foundations go down anyway and full basements are the norm for the post-war and mid-century stock. That means a home listed as one story here almost always sits over a full basement, with the bedrooms and living on the main level and finished or unfinished space below. So one story usually means one main level with a staircase down, not the whole house on a slab. Read the stories field and the floor plan rather than assume from the front photo.

The other thing to watch for is the split-entry. Clearfield's 1960s-to-1980s subdivisions carry a lot of them, and a split-entry photographs almost exactly like a rambler from the curb while it actually runs a few short flights between half-levels. If what you want is true one-level living with no stairs at all, that is the distinction to confirm on the listing. Many of these ramblers have a full basement set up as separate living space, so the basement-apartment page is worth a look too.

One address-level item the Clearfield hub raises directly, and I will repeat here because it matters more than any view: F-35 jet noise from Hill is real, and it varies block by block with the arrival and departure paths, not by city limits. Some streets barely notice it and others hear every launch window. It is knowable in an afternoon, so visit a home you like at different times of day and check the base's published noise-contour study for that exact address. Earlier in the process than show me listings? Start with the Clearfield guide for the whole picture, and when a home below reads right, that is the moment to reach out.

What counts as single-story here

  • Brick rambler over a basement: the post-war and mid-century Clearfield staple. One main level with the bedrooms and living up top and finished or unfinished space below grade. The staircase is real, so plan for it.

  • True single-level: the whole house on one floor with no stairs down. It exists in the older ramblers, but it is less common than the rambler-over-basement, so confirm it on the stories field.

  • Watch the split-entry: the east and west quadrants are full of them. A split-entry steps a half-flight each way and looks like a rambler from the street, but it is not one-level living. Read the listing, not the photo.

  • The basement is the norm: deep frost line, flat lakebed, full basements throughout the older stock. Verify per property whether it is finished, daylight, or set up as a separate suite.

The local map


Where the single-story homes actually are.

Single-level homes turn up across Clearfield, but they concentrate by era: the city's oldest post-war ramblers sit in the State Street core, and the 1960s-to-1980s ramblers and split-entries fill the residential quadrants. Here is where to look. These are geographic areas, not subdivisions, so the street-level read comes with the property search.

The State Street historic core

SR-126 cuts diagonally through the center, and the original spine around City Hall and Wasatch Elementary holds the city's oldest stock: post-war brick cottages and ramblers on established lots with mature trees. This is the most affordable single-level stock in town, and the homes to inspect for bones, sewer lateral, and updates rather than charm.

The east quadrant and the SR-193 corridor

700 South runs east to the Hill West Gate, and a large residential quadrant of 1960s-to-1980s ramblers and split-entries sits along it, anchored by Fisher Park. This is where to watch the split-entry-versus-rambler distinction closely, and where gate traffic surges on SR-193 at shift change are part of the texture.

The Steed Park blocks

North-central, around Charles E. Steed Memorial Park with its pond and mile-plus paved loop, the established mid-century neighborhoods carry a strong run of single-level ramblers. Antelope Elementary sits on the southern flank. Settled streets, mature trees, and the flagship park within a walk.

The west quadrant toward Mabey Pond

Out toward the Clinton and West Point borders, Holt Elementary and the Mabey Pond area, the 1960s-to-1980s ramblers and split-entries continue. This side benefits most from the new West Davis Highway that opened in January 2024, the second north-south freeway on the west of the valley.

The north edge at the Sunset border

The municipal line with Sunset is a seamless grid on a shared ZIP, so confirm the city and school boundary by address, not ZIP. Doxey Elementary even carries a Sunset address. Mid-century single-level stock continues across the line, often a touch more affordable as you go north.

Near the Freeport Center perimeter, southwest

The 680-acre Freeport Center industrial complex defines the southwest quadrant, and adjacent-block ramblers trade that truck-and-rail adjacency for a lower price. The geography is the disclosure here: a constant semi and rail cadence runs the perimeter roads, so weigh the savings against it in person.

Before you tour: what to actually check

Stories field vs. photos: a split-entry photographs like a rambler from the street. Check the listing's stories count and the floor plan, not just the front shot, if you want true one-level living.

The basement: near-universal on the older Clearfield stock, so confirm whether the square footage is all on the main level or includes a finished, unfinished, or separate-suite lower floor.

Flight-path noise: F-35 noise from Hill varies block by block, not by city limits. Visit at different times of day and check the base noise-contour study for that exact address before you fall in love.

Era and systems: a post-war or mid-century rambler is worth a hard look at the roof, furnace, electrical panel, and sewer lateral age, and whether a renovation was documented or just cosmetic.

Secondary irrigation water: Clearfield's untreated secondary water varies neighborhood by neighborhood and metering is being phased in, which materially changes the summer bill. Confirm availability and metering for the specific address.

Freeport and rail adjacency: on the southwest blocks near the Freeport Center, the geography is the disclosure. Drive the perimeter and listen for the truck and rail cadence before you decide the price is the bargain it looks like.

Quick answers


Single-story shopping, answered.

On a Utah listing sheet the word you will see is rambler, the local name for a single-story home, what other markets call a ranch. It means the main living space sits on one level. The Clearfield detail worth knowing is that this city grew up around Hill Air Force Base in the post-war years, the brick rambler is its staple, and full basements are the norm on the flat lakebed, so a single-story here usually sits over a full basement, which means one main level with a staircase down rather than the whole house on a slab. Read the listing for the lower level and I am happy to read it with you.

Usually, yes. The Wasatch Front frost line is deep, so foundations go down anyway and full basements are standard, especially in the post-war State Street core and the mid-century quadrants where a finished basement often doubles the living space. Some are set up as a separate suite with a second kitchen and entrance. If you want a true one-level home with no stairs at all, tell me and I will have the local agent filter for it.

The oldest post-war ramblers and cottages sit in the State Street historic core along SR-126. The 1960s-to-1980s ramblers and split-entries fill the east quadrant along the SR-193 base road, the Steed Park blocks, and the west quadrant toward Mabey Pond. Those quadrants are the bread and butter of resale inventory. The live listings above are the honest count on any given week.

A rambler is a true single-level home with the main rooms on one floor over a basement. A split-entry runs a few short flights of stairs between half-levels, and Clearfield's 1960s-to-1980s quadrants have a lot of them. They can photograph like a rambler from the street, so if you want one level with no stairs at all, check the listing's stories count rather than the front photo.

It depends entirely on the address, and that is the honest answer. Hill borders Clearfield on the east, the 388th and 419th Fighter Wings fly the F-35A, and the noise varies block by block with the flight paths rather than by city limits. Some streets barely notice it and others hear every launch window. It is knowable in an afternoon: visit the home at different times of day and review the base's published noise-contour study for that exact address. I will point you to it for any home you are serious about.

Tell me the budget, the part of town, and whether you want a true zero-step entry or just one main level over a basement, and I will connect you with a Clearfield-area partner agent and flag matching listings as they go live. Because the city is nearly built out, the good ramblers move, so pairing that with a full view of Clearfield inventory and a pre-approval lets you tour the right ones before the weekend crowd does.
