Single Story Homes in Southern Highlands

Single story homes remain highly sought after in Southern Highlands, appealing to retirees, buyers with mobility considerations, and anyone who simply prefers the convenience of one level living. The community offers single story options across virtually every price point, from entry level properties to guard gated luxury estates.

Why Buyers Choose Single Story

The practical benefits of single story living drive consistent demand. No stairs means easier daily movement, simpler furniture arrangement, and reduced fall risk for aging residents or families with young children. Single story homes typically cost less to heat and cool than two story equivalents. Exterior maintenance, particularly roof and gutter work, becomes safer and more affordable without second story heights.

Many buyers also prefer the open, flowing floor plans common in single story designs. Without stairwells consuming square footage, architects create more cohesive living spaces that feel larger than their actual dimensions.

Entry and Mid Range Options

Southern Highlands' non gated subdivisions offer single story homes starting in the mid $400,000s to $600,000s. These properties typically range from 1,500 to 2,500 square feet with three to four bedrooms. While not luxury estates, they provide comfortable one level living within the community's amenity rich environment. Standard features include open floor plans, two car garages, and covered patios.

Upscale Single Story Living

Higher end single story homes in Southern Highlands range from $700,000 to over $1.5 million in neighborhoods like The Foothills, Royal Highlands, and various gated enclaves. These properties offer 2,500 to 4,000+ square feet, upgraded finishes, larger lots, and premium locations. Guard gated options provide enhanced security alongside the single story convenience.

Luxury Single Story Estates

The most discerning buyers find single story custom homes and semi custom properties in Tuscan Cliffs, The Estates, and similar luxury subdivisions. These estates offer 4,000 to 8,000+ square feet of single level living with resort style amenities, golf course or mountain views, and the finest materials and craftsmanship. Prices range from $1.5 million to several million dollars.
