Homes with Views for Sale in Farmington, Utah
Farmington is one of the few Davis County cities where buyers can realistically get both Wasatch mountain views to the east and Great Salt Lake sunsets to the west from the same property. The town climbs from the lake flats near Glovers Lane up through Station Park and onto the bench above Highway 89, gaining roughly 600 feet of elevation in under three miles. That topography is the whole reason view homes exist here in the volume they do — bench lots in Oakridge, Compton Bench, and the foothill subdivisions above the high school sit high enough to see across Farmington Bay to Antelope Island, while east-facing windows pull in Francis Peak and the ridgelines feeding into Farmington Canyon.
The buyer pool for view homes in Farmington skews toward families who want bench living without the Park City price tag and commuters who need fast access to I-15, Legacy Parkway, and the FrontRunner station at Station Park. Median pricing on view-lot homes typically runs from the mid $700s for older bench homes into the $1.5M+ range for newer custom builds with walkout basements and unobstructed sightlines. Lagoon, the Davis School District boundaries, and the trail system feeding into the Wasatch all factor into what buyers are willing to pay for elevation.

Common questions
About homes with views in Farmington.
What kinds of views do Farmington homes typically have? ▾
Most view homes in Farmington fall into two camps: west-facing properties looking out over the Great Salt Lake, Antelope Island, and Farmington Bay, or east-bench homes tucked against the Wasatch with Francis Peak and the foothills out the back windows. Some homes higher up in Oakridge and the benches above Lagoon catch both — lake sunsets to the west and mountains to the east.
Which Farmington neighborhoods have the best view lots? ▾
The east bench above Highway 89 — including Oakridge Country Club, Compton Bench, and the newer streets climbing toward the foothills — has the strongest concentration of view properties. Farmington Ranches and parts of Station Park's surrounding subdivisions also offer lake and sunset views from elevated lots. Older homes on 600 East and above tend to sit on larger parcels with mature view corridors.
Do view homes in Farmington cost more than comparable homes without views? ▾
Yes, typically 10–25% more depending on what's visible and how protected the sightline is. A lake-and-island sunset view from a walkout basement bench lot commands a real premium, while a partial mountain view from a flat interior lot adds less. Lots with protected open space below them (Farmington Creek corridor, golf course frontage) hold value especially well.
Are mountain views in Farmington at risk from future development? ▾
Mountain views east toward the Wasatch are largely protected because most of the land above the bench is Forest Service or steep terrain that can't be built on. West-facing lake views are more variable — newer subdivisions continue filling in below the bench, so verify what's zoned downslope before assuming a view is permanent. The city's foothill ordinance limits building heights in sensitive areas.
How's the commute from Farmington's view neighborhoods to Salt Lake? ▾
Farmington sits about 17 miles north of downtown Salt Lake, with I-15, Legacy Parkway, and the FrontRunner station at Station Park all feeding south. From most bench neighborhoods you're 25–35 minutes to downtown SLC and roughly 20 minutes to the airport outside rush hour. The train is the sleeper option for daily commuters who don't want to deal with I-15.
What should I check before writing an offer on a view lot here? ▾
Pull the plat and check for view easements or CC&R height restrictions that protect (or fail to protect) the sightline. Visit the property at different times of day — west-facing homes get strong afternoon sun and heat load in July, while east-bench homes can lose direct light early in winter. Also ask about inversion season; the lake view disappears under haze for stretches of January and February.
