3 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Homes for Sale in Ferron, Utah
Ferron sits in Castle Valley on the east side of Emery County, about two and a half hours south of Salt Lake on Highway 10. It's a small ranching and coal-country town of roughly 1,500 people, with Ferron Reservoir and the Manti-La Sal National Forest right up the canyon for fishing, ATV use, and elk hunting. A 3-bed, 2-bath home is the workhorse layout here, fitting families connected to the Emery County School District, workers at the Huntington and Hunter power plants, and retirees who want acreage without Wasatch Front prices. The cost of entry is one of the lowest in Utah, and lot sizes tend to run generous, with horse property and irrigation shares still attainable in this size range.
The housing stock leans older brick ramblers from the 1960s and 70s, mixed with newer manufactured homes and a handful of recent builds on the south end of town. Summers are hot and dry, winters bring cold nights but modest snowfall compared to the mountains, and the surrounding red-rock and pinyon-juniper landscape gives the area a different feel than northern Utah. Buyers should expect well and septic on rural parcels, culinary water in town, and a market that moves slowly with limited inventory. Browse the active 3-bed, 2-bath listings below to see what's currently on the market in Ferron.

Common questions
About 3 bed 2 bath homes in Ferron.
What do 3 bed, 2 bath homes typically cost in Ferron? ▾
Most 3-bed, 2-bath homes in Ferron trade in the $230,000 to $360,000 range, depending on lot size, age, and whether the property includes outbuildings or irrigation shares. Older homes near Main Street and Molen Road tend to sit on the lower end, while newer builds on the south side or larger acreage parcels push higher. Pricing here remains well below the Wasatch Front average.
Are most of these homes on city utilities or wells and septic? ▾
Inside Ferron city limits you'll generally get culinary water and sewer through Ferron City, while properties on the outskirts toward Molen or up the canyon often run on well and septic. Many homes also carry irrigation shares from Ferron Reservoir, which is a real asset for pasture or large gardens. Always confirm water rights and septic inspection on rural parcels.
What lot sizes come with a typical 3/2 in Ferron? ▾
Lots vary widely. In-town homes usually sit on a quarter to half acre, but it's common to find 3-bed, 2-bath properties on 1 to 5 acres, especially toward the foothills. Horse property with a barn or shop is realistic in this price band, which is rare in most of Utah.
How long is the commute to jobs in Price or Huntington? ▾
Ferron is about 20 minutes north to Huntington and roughly 30 to 35 minutes north to Price on Highway 10. The Huntington and Hunter power plants, the Emery County School District, and the local coal operations are the main employers within easy driving distance.
Is inventory tight for this size of home in Ferron? ▾
Ferron is a small town of around 1,500 residents, so active listings at any given time are limited, often only a handful of 3/2 homes on the market. Turnover is slow, and well-priced properties under $300,000 tend to move within a few weeks. Setting up MLS alerts is worth doing if you're patient on timing.
What should buyers check for in older Ferron homes? ▾
A large share of the housing stock dates to the 1950s through 1980s, so look closely at the roof, electrical panel, furnace age, and any signs of settling. Many homes have been updated piecemeal, and rural water lines or aging septic systems should be part of the inspection. Coal and wood heat backup is still common and worth verifying.
