Homes with Acreage for Sale in Farmington, Utah
Farmington sits at a useful spot on the Wasatch Front — about 17 miles north of downtown Salt Lake, with the foothills rising directly behind town and Great Salt Lake views to the west. Acreage properties here are a different animal than what you'll see in newer Davis County subdivisions like Station Park's surrounding builds or the dense pockets near Lagoon. Most homes with real land are concentrated on the east bench above Highway 89, in the older neighborhoods west of Main Street, and along the agricultural edges near Glovers Lane and Shepard Lane. Lot sizes range from generous half-acre lots up to working 2-5 acre parcels, some still carrying water shares from Farmington Creek and the local irrigation companies.
Buyers looking at acreage in Farmington are usually after one of three things: room for horses or hobby farming under the city's agricultural zoning, a foothill lot with Wasatch views and space between neighbors, or a buildable parcel close to the FrontRunner station and I-15 for SLC commutes. The trade-off worth knowing: Farmington has built out aggressively over the past decade, so genuinely usable acreage is shrinking fast, and prices reflect that scarcity. Steeper foothill lots can be misleading on paper — a 2-acre listing might only have a quarter acre of flat, usable ground. Browse the active acreage listings below to see what's currently available, and pay attention to lot topography and water rights as you shortlist.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Farmington.
How much land typically qualifies as an acreage property in Farmington? ▾
On the Farmington MLS, 'acreage' usually means lots from about half an acre up to 2-5 acres, with a handful of larger parcels closer to the foothills or out toward the Shepard Lane corridor. Anything over an acre is considered rare inside city limits, since most newer subdivisions plat around 0.15-0.25 acre lots. The older estates west of Main Street and along Compton Bench tend to hold the largest in-town lots.
Where in Farmington should I look if I want land plus proximity to I-15? ▾
The east bench above Highway 89 offers larger lots backed up to the Wasatch foothills, while still keeping you within 5-10 minutes of the Lagoon/Farmington Station I-15 interchange. West Farmington near Glovers Lane and Shepard Lane also has pockets of half-acre-plus lots on flatter ground, closer to the FrontRunner station for SLC commuters.
Can I keep horses or livestock on acreage in Farmington? ▾
Farmington zoning allows horses and limited livestock on properties zoned A (Agricultural) and on some larger residential lots, typically requiring at least a half acre per animal unit. The foothill neighborhoods and parts of west Farmington still carry agricultural zoning. Always confirm with Farmington City planning before closing, since zoning has tightened as the city has built out.
What's the price premium for acreage versus a standard subdivision lot here? ▾
An extra acre in Farmington often adds $150,000-$400,000 to the price depending on location, views, and whether the land is usable or steep hillside. Foothill lots with Wasatch views and walkout potential command the top end. Flatter, usable acreage suitable for outbuildings or horses tends to sell fastest because supply keeps shrinking.
Is water rights an issue with larger lots in Farmington? ▾
It can be. Some older Farmington acreage parcels include shares in Farmington Creek or local irrigation companies, which is valuable for keeping pastures and orchards green through dry summers. Newer or subdivided parcels may only have culinary water through the city. Ask for a water rights disclosure during due diligence — it materially affects what you can do with the land.
How fast do acreage listings move in Farmington? ▾
Usable acreage inside Farmington city limits is genuinely scarce, so well-priced listings often go under contract within 2-4 weeks, sometimes faster for foothill view lots. Steeper hillside parcels or homes needing significant updates can sit longer. Setting up an MLS alert is the practical move since these properties don't stay active long.
