Cottonwood Heights, Utah

Condos for Sale in Cottonwood Heights, Utah

Cottonwood Heights sits on the east bench of the Salt Lake Valley, tucked between Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons at the foot of the Wasatch. For condo buyers, that location is the whole pitch: you're 20 minutes from downtown Salt Lake, 25 minutes to the airport, and roughly the same distance up either canyon to Brighton, Solitude, Alta, and Snowbird. The condo inventory here is smaller than what you'll see in Sandy or Murray — most of the city is single-family housing built in the 1970s through 1990s — but the units that do come up tend to attract skiers, downsizing locals, and Salt Lake commuters who want canyon access without yard work.

Expect a mix of townhome-style condos near Fort Union Boulevard, mid-rise complexes off Highland Drive, and a handful of newer attached-product developments near Bengal Boulevard and the Old Mill corridor. HOA fees generally cover snow removal (a real consideration when you're at 4,800 feet and the canyons funnel storms right over the city), exterior maintenance, and landscaping. Canyons School District serves the area, with Butler, Bella Vista, and Brighton High among the assigned schools. Buyers should also factor in the 2025 reassessments — Salt Lake County values have climbed, and condo property taxes vary noticeably between primary residences and second homes.

Common questions

About condos for sale in Cottonwood Heights.

What's the typical price range for condos in Cottonwood Heights?

Most condos here trade between the low $300s and the high $500s, with newer or larger townhome-style units pushing past $700K. Pricing depends heavily on proximity to Big Cottonwood Canyon and whether the unit has a garage, mountain view, or updated finishes. Older 1980s-era complexes near Fort Union sit at the lower end; newer builds near Bengal Boulevard run higher.

Which condo complexes are most active on the MLS?

Turnover tends to come from communities like Mount Olympus Cove, Canyon Cove, The Ridge at Cottonwood, and several smaller townhome enclaves off 6200 South and 2300 East. Inventory is usually thin — often a dozen or fewer units citywide at any given time — so serious buyers should set up MLS alerts.

What do HOA fees typically cover here?

Most Cottonwood Heights HOAs run $250 to $450 per month and cover exterior maintenance, snow removal (a real factor at this elevation), landscaping, and often water and trash. Some include a clubhouse, pool, or hot tub. Winter snow load on roofs and shared driveways is the main reason fees skew higher than valley-floor condos in West Valley or Murray.

Are condos here a good fit for skiers?

Yes — that's a big part of the buyer pool. Brighton and Solitude are roughly 20 to 30 minutes up Big Cottonwood Canyon, and Alta and Snowbird are a similar drive via Little Cottonwood. A locked-and-leave condo near the canyon mouth is popular with second-home owners and retirees who ski 30-plus days a season.

How do condo property taxes compare to single-family homes in the area?

Utah's primary-residence exemption knocks taxable value down by 45%, so an owner-occupied condo at $450K typically runs $1,800 to $2,200 per year in Salt Lake County. Investment or second-home condos are taxed at full value, which roughly doubles the bill — worth modeling before you write an offer.

Can I find condos with mountain views in Cottonwood Heights?

Plenty. The city climbs from about 4,500 to over 5,500 feet of elevation, and units on the east bench look straight at Mount Olympus and the Wasatch front range. Top-floor units in complexes along Wasatch Boulevard and near Old Mill tend to have the cleanest sightlines.
