Homes Under $500,000 in Centerville, Utah
Centerville sits about 15 minutes north of Salt Lake City along the I-15 corridor, tucked between the Wasatch foothills and the Great Salt Lake shoreline. It's a small Davis County city of roughly 17,000 people with a quiet, established feel — think mature trees, 1970s and 80s ranch homes near Parrish Lane, newer infill closer to the freeway, and a handful of foothill streets east of US-89 with Wasatch views. Under $500K in Centerville generally puts buyers into townhomes, condos, smaller single-family rambler-style homes, or older two-stories that may need some updating. The median sale price in Centerville has hovered above $600K in recent years, so the sub-$500K segment is where first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors do most of their shopping.
At this price point, expect to see a mix of attached product in communities like Founders Park and Legacy Crossing, plus original-owner ranches on quarter-acre lots that haven't been renovated yet. Commuters get easy access to FrontRunner at the Woods Cross station one exit south, and Hill Air Force Base is about 20 minutes north. Davis School District serves the city, with Centerville Elementary, Centennial Junior High, and Viewmont High as the main feeders. Inventory under $500K moves quickly here because the supply is thin compared to neighboring Bountiful and Farmington. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently available in this range.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in Centerville.
How many homes under $500K are typically available in Centerville? ▾
Inventory in this price band is usually thin — often fewer than 10 active listings at any given time, and sometimes as few as 2 or 3. Townhomes and condos make up a larger share of what's available under $500K than single-family detached homes.
What kind of home can I realistically expect under $500K in Centerville? ▾
Most options are 1970s–1990s split-entries, ramblers, or townhomes between roughly 1,400 and 2,400 finished square feet. Lots tend to be smaller (under a quarter acre), and many homes have original or partially updated kitchens and bathrooms. Newer construction below $500K is rare here.
Are there any single-family detached homes under $500K, or just townhomes? ▾
Both show up, but detached single-family listings under $500K are less common and usually sell within days. Townhomes and twin homes — particularly along Pages Lane and the west side near Legacy Parkway — make up a larger share of this price range.
What schools serve homes in this price range? ▾
Centerville is part of the Davis School District. Depending on the neighborhood, kids attend Centerville, Reading, or J.A. Taylor Elementary, then Centennial Junior High and Viewmont High School. All have solid reputations within Davis County.
How does the commute work from Centerville to Salt Lake City? ▾
It's about 15–20 minutes to downtown SLC via I-15 or Legacy Parkway outside of rush hour, and 25–30 during peak commute times. The Farmington FrontRunner station is roughly five minutes north and runs straight into SLC Central Station and Provo.
Should I expect bidding wars under $500K here? ▾
Often, yes — especially on detached homes in move-in condition. The supply-demand imbalance in this price band means well-priced listings frequently see multiple offers within the first weekend. Getting pre-approved and being ready to tour quickly is worth the prep.
