Luxury Homes for Sale in Francis, Utah
Francis is a small Summit County town of roughly 1,500 residents sitting at 6,500 feet on the eastern edge of the Kamas Valley, with the Uinta Mountains rising directly to the east and Park City a 20-minute drive west over Browns Canyon. Luxury here doesn't look like Deer Valley ski-in/ski-out — it looks like custom homes on 2 to 20+ acres with horse setups, heated shops, water rights, and unobstructed views of Bald Mountain and the Wasatch Back. Buyers shopping the upper end in Francis are usually trading HOA-dense resort living for privacy, dark night skies, and space for trucks, trailers, horses, and toys, while keeping Park City schools, restaurants, and the slopes within easy reach.
Pricing at the luxury tier in Francis generally starts around $1.5M for a well-built modern farmhouse on a few acres and climbs past $4M for larger estates with full equestrian facilities, ponds, or river frontage along the Provo or Beaver Creek. Water shares, irrigation rights, and Kamas Valley Fire response times matter more here than in suburban Wasatch Front markets, and most buyers prioritize a heated outbuilding and a backup generator given winter conditions at this elevation. The market moves slowly compared to Park City proper — inventory is thin, so well-priced acreage properties tend to attract serious offers within weeks.

Common questions
About luxury homes in Francis.
What price range counts as luxury in Francis? ▾
In Francis, luxury generally starts around $1.5M and runs well past $4M for larger acreage estates or custom builds near the Uinta foothills. Anything with usable horse property, water rights, or a barn/shop tends to command a premium over comparable square footage in Heber or Kamas.
How is Francis different from Park City or Midway for a luxury buyer? ▾
Francis sits about 20 minutes east of Park City on SR-32, trading ski-resort proximity for larger lots, dark skies, and lower property taxes. Buyers here typically want elbow room, a shop or barn, and mountain views without HOA restrictions. It draws people who already own in Deer Valley or want a quieter primary residence within reach of the slopes.
Can I have horses or livestock on luxury properties in Francis? ▾
Yes — most luxury parcels in Francis are zoned for horses, and many include irrigated pasture, loafing sheds, or full equestrian setups. Confirm water shares and irrigation rights on the title report, since those significantly affect both usability and resale value.
What's the commute and access like from a luxury home in Francis? ▾
Francis is roughly 15 minutes to Park City's Kimball Junction via Browns Canyon or SR-248, about 50 minutes to Salt Lake City International, and 25 minutes to the Jordanelle and Deer Valley East Village base. Winter driving on SR-32 is manageable but plan for snow tires from November through April.
Are luxury homes in Francis on wells and septic or city utilities? ▾
It depends on the subdivision. Homes inside Francis town limits often connect to municipal water and sewer, while properties on 2+ acre lots outside the core are typically well and septic. Well depth, flow rate, and septic capacity should be part of your inspection contingency.
How active is the Francis luxury market right now? ▾
Inventory at the $1.5M+ level in Francis is thin — usually a handful of active listings at any given time, with new construction trickling in as Summit County land gets developed. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.
