3 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Homes for Sale in Emery, Utah
Emery is a small farming and ranching town in southern Emery County, tucked between the San Rafael Swell to the east and the Wasatch Plateau to the west. The 3 bed, 2 bath floor plan is the workhorse of this market — it's what most local families built and what most buyers moving here are looking for. Expect a mix of mid-century ranch homes on generous town lots, manufactured homes on acreage, and a smaller number of newer builds. Prices run substantially below Wasatch Front averages, and it's still possible to find a livable 3/2 here for a fraction of what the same square footage costs in Utah County. Many properties come with shops, barns, or room for animals, which is part of why people choose Emery in the first place.
Climate-wise, you're at roughly 6,200 feet, so winters get cold with real snow and summers stay drier and cooler than St. George or the Wasatch Front. Coal mining, ag, and the Huntington and Hunter power plants drive a lot of the local economy, and the recreation pull — Joe's Valley, the Swell, Millsite — is a big part of daily life. Inventory is genuinely limited; in any given month there may only be a handful of homes on the MLS countywide. Browse the active 3/2 listings below to see what's currently available, and consider a saved search since new listings here tend to move quickly when priced right.

Common questions
About 3 bed 2 bath homes in Emery.
What do 3 bed, 2 bath homes typically cost in Emery? ▾
Most 3/2 homes in Emery and the surrounding county trade in a wide band depending on lot size, outbuildings, and condition — generally well under what comparable square footage runs along the Wasatch Front. Older homes on large lots can come in lower, while updated homes with shop space or acreage push higher. Active inventory is thin, so pricing moves with whatever's listed that month.
Is Emery on town water and sewer or wells and septic? ▾
The town of Emery has a culinary water system, but many properties on the outskirts run on wells and septic. If you're buying a 3/2 on acreage, confirm the water source, water rights, and septic condition during due diligence. Well depth and flow rate matter a lot out here.
How far is Emery from larger towns and services? ▾
Emery sits in the south end of Emery County, roughly 30 minutes from Castle Dale and Ferron, about an hour to Price, and around 2.5 hours from Provo. Grocery runs and bigger shopping usually mean a drive to Price or Richfield. Huntington and Joe's Valley Reservoir are short trips for fishing and recreation.
What size lots do 3/2 homes in Emery usually sit on? ▾
Lot sizes vary widely — some homes sit on standard town parcels under a quarter acre, while others come with one to five acres or more on the edges of town. Horse property and homes with detached shops are reasonably common given the rural ag character of the area.
Are there many 3 bed, 2 bath listings active at any given time? ▾
Emery is a small community, so the active MLS count is usually low — sometimes only a handful of homes total are listed across all configurations. The 3/2 layout is the most common floor plan locally, so when something does come up, it's often this size. Setting up a saved search is the practical way to catch new listings.
What should I check for on older homes in Emery? ▾
Many homes in town were built mid-century or earlier, so look closely at roof age, electrical panels, plumbing materials, and heat source (propane and wood are common alongside forced air). Crawlspaces and foundations deserve a careful inspection given the area's soils and freeze cycles.
