About Single-Level Homes in Northern Kentucky

What Counts as a Single-Level Home in Northern Kentucky

A single-level home has its bedrooms, kitchen and main living areas on one floor above ground. In the Northern Kentucky MLS these homes are listed as "1 Story," and that is exactly what this page shows. One-and-a-half-story homes, bi-levels, tri-levels and two-story homes are left out.

This page covers single-family houses only. Attached one-floor homes have their own pages: patio homes in Northern Kentucky and condos and townhomes in Northern Kentucky.

Ranch Homes vs Single-Level Homes

"Ranch" describes the style of the house and "single-level" describes the layout, and in Northern Kentucky they usually mean the same home. About four in five one-story houses sold here over the past year were listed as ranch style; the rest were mostly traditional, cottage and Cape Cod designs.

Here "ranch" means the style of house, not a property with acreage. And a Northern Kentucky ranch is built differently from a ranch in Texas or much of the South, where most sit on a concrete slab: here, most are built over a full basement.

Single-Level Homes With Basements

Most single-level homes in Northern Kentucky have a basement - about four in five sold over the past year. A basement does not change how a home is listed: a ranch with a full basement is still a "1 Story" home, because the basement is below grade.

About two in three had a finished or partly finished lower level, and about two in five had a walk-out basement, which is common on Northern Kentucky's hillside lots. If you want every room on one floor, the main-level bedroom count and the location of the laundry in each listing tell you more than the story count does.

Where to Find Ranch Homes for Sale in Northern KY

Ranch homes are for sale in every Northern Kentucky city. Over the past year the most sales were in Florence, Covington, Union, Independence, Erlanger, Alexandria, Burlington, Walton and Hebron, with Kenton County slightly ahead of Boone and Campbell. Grant, Pendleton, Owen and Gallatin counties to the south add more homes, often on larger lots.

Communities with the most one-story sales include Tuscany in Covington, Triple Crown and Ballyshannon in Union, North Pointe in Hebron, Sanctuary Village in Villa Hills, Cherry Hill in Erlanger and Silver Creek in Florence.

What Ranch and Single-Level Homes Cost in Northern Kentucky

Most single-level homes in Northern Kentucky sell from the mid-$100,000s to about $600,000, and the middle half sell between the low-$200,000s and the low-$400,000s. Size, a finished or walk-out basement, garage spaces, lot size and age move the price the most.

A typical home has three bedrooms, two baths and roughly 1,000 to 1,900 square feet, and a two-car garage is the most common setup. The price breakdown near the top of this page shows what the homes for sale right now are listed at.

New Construction and Resale Ranch Homes

About one in ten single-level homes sold in Northern Kentucky over the past year was new construction, most often in Union, Covington, Independence, Hebron, Walton and Burlington. Resale homes make up the rest and range from mid-century brick ranches to homes built in the last few years.

Our team can represent you on a new-construction purchase as well as a resale: we compare floor plans and incentives across communities, review the purchase agreement and walk the home with you before closing.

Ranch and Single-Level Homes by City

What to Check When Touring a Single-Level Home

  • Steps at the entry and garage - many one-story homes still have a few steps up to the front door or in from the garage.
  • Laundry location - first-floor laundry or a basement laundry room.
  • The basement - finished or unfinished, walk-out or not, and any signs of water.
  • Roof and lot - a one-story home has more roof for its size, and a wider house needs a wider lot.
