Homes with Acreage for Sale in Draper, Utah
Draper is one of the few Salt Lake County cities where you can still buy a real piece of land without driving an hour from the airport. The city straddles the Point of the Mountain between Salt Lake and Utah counties, and its eastern half climbs into the Wasatch foothills around Corner Canyon, SunCrest, and the Traverse Mountains. That topography is the reason acreage exists here at all: large lots tend to cluster along the benches, in the historic horse-property corridors near 1300 East and Highland Drive, and in the hillside cul-de-sacs above 14600 South. Expect a mix of 1–2 acre equestrian parcels, 3–5 acre custom estate sites with valley views, and the occasional 10+ acre legacy holding that rarely hits the open market.
The buyer pool for Draper acreage is specific: families who want horses or a shop, tech executives commuting to Silicon Slopes who want privacy without leaving the I-15 corridor, and longtime Utahns trading up from smaller Wasatch Front lots. Climate-wise you get four real seasons, roughly 222 sunny days a year, and enough snowfall on the upper benches to matter for driveway planning. Water rights, secondary irrigation shares, and zoning (RA1, RA2, A2 for agricultural uses) vary lot by lot and are worth checking before you write an offer.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Draper.
How much land typically qualifies as an acreage property in Draper? ▾
On the Draper MLS, anything from about 0.5 acres up counts as a larger lot, but true acreage listings usually start around 1 acre and run up to 5–10+ acres in the foothill and equestrian pockets. Properties above SunCrest and on the east bench tend to have the largest parcels, while flatter west-side acreage often comes with irrigation shares.
Can I keep horses on acreage in Draper? ▾
Yes, in the right zone. Draper has long-standing equestrian areas, particularly around Corner Canyon, Highland Drive, and east of 1300 East, where horse property is part of the city's identity. Check the specific zoning (RA1, RA2, A2) and HOA rules before writing an offer, since some newer subdivisions restrict livestock even on larger lots.
What price range should I expect for acreage homes in Draper? ▾
Acreage homes in Draper generally start in the high $900s for older homes on roughly an acre and climb past $3M for custom estates on 2–5 acres with views. Foothill lots with Salt Lake Valley views and gated entries sit at the top of the range. Pricing moves quickly with parcel size, water rights, and whether the land is usable or steep hillside.
Do acreage properties in Draper come with water shares? ▾
Many do, especially on the west side and along historic farm corridors. Secondary water and irrigation shares through Draper Irrigation Company or Welby-Jacob can significantly affect both value and what you can actually grow or pasture. Always verify shares in writing during due diligence, since they don't automatically transfer in every transaction.
How close are acreage homes to I-15 and Silicon Slopes? ▾
Most Draper acreage sits within 10–15 minutes of the I-15 Bangerter or 12300 South interchanges, putting Silicon Slopes, Lehi tech campuses, and the Point of the Mountain development within an easy commute. Foothill properties trade a few extra minutes of drive time for quieter streets and direct access to Corner Canyon trails.
Is buildable raw acreage still available, or mostly existing homes? ▾
Both exist, but inventory is tight. Occasional teardown or split-lot opportunities come up in the older east-bench neighborhoods, and a handful of larger parcels still trade in the SunCrest area. Most buyers end up purchasing an existing home on land and either remodeling or scraping, since fully entitled vacant acreage in Draper is increasingly rare.
