3 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Homes for Sale in Altamont, Utah
Altamont sits at about 6,500 feet in Duchesne County, in the Uintah Basin along Highway 87, roughly 20 miles north of Duchesne and a little under 2.5 hours from Salt Lake City. It's a small town, with a population around 200. Most homes here are ranch-style houses, manufactured homes on acreage, and older farmhouses on larger lots. A 3 bed, 2 bath layout is the most common configuration you'll see, and it suits the way people live here: a primary bedroom, two secondary rooms for kids, a home office or hunting gear, and a bathroom on each end of the house.
The buyers who look at 3 bed, 2 bath homes in Altamont are often oilfield and energy workers, ranchers, retirees, and families who want land and quiet without leaving Duchesne County schools. Winters are long and cold, with real snow and overnight lows well below zero, so check insulation, the heating system, and whether the well and septic have been serviced. Lots often run an acre or more, which means outbuildings, corrals, and room for RVs and trailers. Prices tend to sit well below Wasatch Front levels, though inventory is thin and a given month may show only a handful of matches.

Common questions
About 3 bed 2 bath homes in Altamont.
How many 3 bed 2 bath homes are typically listed in Altamont at any one time? ▾
Altamont is a small Duchesne County town with a population under 250, so active inventory is thin — often just a handful of listings across the whole 84001 ZIP at any given moment. Three-bed, two-bath configurations are the most common floor plan in the area, but new listings can sit for weeks or months. Setting up an MLS alert is the practical way to catch them.
What price range should I expect for a 3/2 in Altamont? ▾
Most 3 bed 2 bath homes in the Altamont and Mountain Home area trade in the low-to-mid $300s to mid $400s, depending on acreage, outbuildings, and water rights. Homes sitting on irrigated parcels or with shop space command a premium over in-town lots. Manufactured homes on land tend to come in lower.
Are most of these homes on acreage or in town? ▾
Altamont proper has a small grid of in-town lots, but the majority of listings in the surrounding area sit on 1 to 10+ acres. Buyers looking for horse property, hay ground, or room for livestock will find more options outside the town center toward Mountain Home and Bluebell. Confirm water shares and irrigation rights with the listing agent — they materially affect value out here.
What's the commute situation from Altamont? ▾
Altamont sits in the Uinta Basin, roughly 20 minutes north of Duchesne and about 45 minutes from Roosevelt or Vernal. Many buyers here work in oil and gas, ranching, or for the Ute Tribe, or they commute to the Duchesne County School District where the local K-12 school serves the community. Salt Lake City is roughly a 2.5-hour drive over Daniels Pass.
Do 3/2 homes here usually have basements or are they single-level? ▾
Both exist. Older ranch-style homes from the 70s and 80s often have full or partial basements that add unfinished square footage, while newer manufactured and modular homes tend to be single-level on crawl space or slab. If basement bedrooms are counted in the bed total, make sure they have legal egress windows.
What should I check on well and septic for rural Altamont properties? ▾
Almost every home outside the town center runs on a private well and septic system. Ask for recent water tests, well logs, and septic inspection records during due diligence. Winter freeze depth in the Basin is significant, so confirm the well line depth and that the septic drain field has been pumped within the last few years.
