Homes with Acreage for Sale in Clearfield, Utah
Clearfield sits in central Davis County, hemmed in by Hill Air Force Base to the east, Sunset and Layton to the north and south, and the Great Salt Lake wetlands to the west. That geography matters when you're hunting for acreage here: the city built out fast during the postwar HAFB boom, so most lots run a quarter acre or less, and true large-parcel properties are genuinely rare. When they do hit the MLS, they tend to be older homesteads off Antelope Drive, 1000 East, or near the Clearfield/Syracuse line where former farm ground was never subdivided. Expect a mix of 1950s-era ramblers on half-acre to one-acre lots and the occasional two-to-five-acre holdout with outbuildings, irrigation shares, or horse setups.
Pricing on acreage in Clearfield typically runs a meaningful premium over standard subdivision homes because the land itself carries development potential — many of these parcels are zoned R-1 or agricultural and could be split, depending on city approval and utility access. Buyers are usually a mix of HAFB families wanting room for animals, investors eyeing future subdivision, and locals who want a shop, RV parking, or a garden without leaving Davis County. Weber State, the FrontRunner station, and I-15 access at the 650 North and Antelope Drive interchanges keep commutes manageable to Ogden or Salt Lake. Inventory turns over slowly, so it's worth checking back often. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market in Clearfield.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Clearfield.
How much acreage can I realistically expect to find in Clearfield? ▾
Most 'acreage' listings in Clearfield fall between a half acre and two acres. Anything above three acres is uncommon and usually represents an old family parcel that escaped subdivision during the HAFB-driven buildout. If you need five-plus acres, you'll have better luck looking west toward West Point or north into Hooper.
Are horses and livestock allowed on Clearfield acreage properties? ▾
It depends on zoning. Parts of Clearfield are zoned A-1 or R-1 with animal rights attached, which generally allows horses, chickens, and small livestock with minimum lot-size requirements. Always verify the specific parcel's zoning with Clearfield City before writing an offer — neighboring lots can carry different rules.
Do these properties usually come with secondary or irrigation water? ▾
Many of the older acreage parcels in Clearfield carry Weber Basin secondary water shares for outdoor irrigation, which is a significant cost saver during the long dry summers. Confirm share counts and annual assessments on the title work, since shares don't always transfer automatically with the deed.
Is there subdivision or development potential on Clearfield acreage? ▾
Often, yes. Davis County is one of the fastest-growing areas in Utah, and larger Clearfield lots near existing infrastructure are frequent candidates for splits or small infill subdivisions. Feasibility hinges on sewer access, road frontage, and current zoning, so a quick pre-application meeting with Clearfield's planning department is the smart first step.
How does proximity to Hill Air Force Base affect acreage homes? ▾
Clearfield sits inside the HAFB Accident Potential Zone and noise contour for parts of the city, particularly east-side neighborhoods. Larger lots near the base flight path can see jet noise from F-35 operations. This isn't a dealbreaker for most buyers — many HAFB families prefer being close — but it's worth visiting the property at different times of day before committing.
What price premium should I budget for acreage versus a standard Clearfield home? ▾
A typical Clearfield home on a small lot trades in a different price band than acreage properties, which usually command a 30-50% premium depending on outbuildings, water rights, and split potential. Homes with shops, barns, or RV garages on an acre or more often clear well above the city's median, especially when they've been updated.
