Homes Under $300,000 in Centerville, Utah
Centerville sits right on the Wasatch Front between Bountiful and Farmington, about 15 minutes north of downtown Salt Lake City and roughly 20 minutes from the SLC airport. It's a small Davis County city of around 17,000 people, with the Wasatch foothills rising directly to the east and the Great Salt Lake stretching out to the west. The catch for buyers shopping under $300K: Centerville's median sale price has run in the $550K-$650K range for several years, so single-family homes at this price point are genuinely rare. What you'll mostly see below that threshold are townhomes, condos, and the occasional smaller patio home — often in the newer attached-housing pockets near Parrish Lane or off Main Street.
The trade-off is worth understanding before you tour. Sub-$300K inventory in Centerville tends to mean two-bedroom condos, older townhomes with HOA dues, or 55+ community units. In exchange, you're buying into the Davis School District, quick FrontRunner access at the Farmington station, and trail access up Centerville Canyon and along the Legacy Parkway. Property taxes here run about 0.6% of assessed value, which is friendly compared with most of the country. Listings at this price move quickly when they hit the market, sometimes within a week, so having financing lined up matters more than it would in a slower segment.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Centerville.
What kind of home can I actually get under $300K in Centerville? ▾
At this price point in Centerville, expect mostly condos, townhomes, and the occasional small twin home or older manufactured home on leased land. Detached single-family houses on their own lot rarely list under $300K here — Davis County's median sits well above that. Most under-$300K inventory shows up near Parrish Lane or along the Frontage Road corridor.
Are HOAs common in this price range? ▾
Yes. Almost every condo and townhome under $300K in Centerville carries an HOA, typically running $200-$350 per month. The fee usually covers exterior maintenance, roof reserves, landscaping, and sometimes water or sewer. Read the CC&Rs carefully — some communities restrict rentals, which matters if you ever plan to move and lease the unit.
How's the commute from Centerville to Salt Lake City? ▾
Centerville sits about 15 miles north of downtown Salt Lake, and the FrontRunner station in Farmington is roughly five minutes away. Most commuters hit I-15 or Legacy Parkway and reach downtown in 20-25 minutes outside rush hour. The Legacy route tends to move better during the morning crunch.
Which schools serve homes in this price range? ▾
Centerville falls under Davis School District, which consistently ranks among the strongest in the state. Properties typically feed into Centerville, Reading, or Tolman Elementary, then Centerville Junior High and Viewmont High. Boundaries shift occasionally, so confirm the assigned school with the district before writing an offer.
How fast do sub-$300K listings move here? ▾
Affordable inventory in Davis County moves quickly — often under two weeks when priced right and in clean condition. Townhomes near the freeway and FrontRunner draw multiple offers from commuters and first-time buyers. Having financing fully underwritten before you tour gives a real edge.
Are there down payment assistance programs that work in Centerville? ▾
Utah Housing Corporation offers first-time buyer loans with down payment assistance that pair well with FHA financing, and many under-$300K Centerville properties qualify. Davis County also occasionally runs HOME program funds. A local lender familiar with UHC overlays can tell you in one conversation what you're eligible for.
