New Construction Homes for Sale in Franklin, Utah
Franklin sits just over the Idaho line in Cache County's northern reach, and most MLS searches for "Franklin, Utah" actually pull from the small cluster of homes on the Utah side of the valley plus nearby Richmond, Lewiston, and Cornish. New construction here looks nothing like the dense subdivisions going up in Lehi or Saratoga Springs — lots tend to run a third of an acre to a full acre, builders are often local Cache Valley outfits rather than national production companies, and the architectural style leans toward farmhouse, craftsman, and rambler floor plans with three-car garages and unfinished basements ready for future buildout. Expect agricultural views, cold winters with real snow load requirements, and a drive of about 25 minutes to Logan for groceries, USU, and Logan Regional Hospital.
Pricing on new builds in this corner of the valley generally runs lower than comparable square footage in North Logan or Smithfield, which is part of the draw for buyers who want a brand-new home without Wasatch Front pricing. Most new homes here are on septic and culinary water shares rather than full municipal service, so reviewing the water rights and septic design with your agent matters more than it would in a typical suburb. Buyers also tend to ask about builder warranties, lot premiums for view or pasture frontage, and timelines, since spec inventory is thin and many homes are sold pre-drywall. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently under construction or recently completed.

Common questions
About new construction homes in Franklin.
How much new construction is actually available near Franklin, Utah? ▾
Inventory is limited compared to southern Cache Valley cities like Nibley or Hyrum. On any given week there are usually a handful of active new builds in Franklin and the adjacent communities of Richmond, Lewiston, and Cornish combined. Spec homes sell quickly, so many transactions are build-to-order on land the buyer or builder already owns.
What do new construction homes in the Franklin area typically cost? ▾
Most new builds in this part of Cache Valley fall in the mid $400s to high $600s, with custom homes on larger acreage crossing into the $800s and above. Pricing depends heavily on lot size, whether the basement is finished, and whether outbuildings or shop space are included. Comparable square footage in North Logan or Providence usually runs $50K–$100K higher.
Are these homes on city water and sewer or septic and well? ▾
It varies lot by lot. Homes inside Franklin city limits are typically on municipal water and sewer, while builds on the Utah side or on larger rural parcels are often on septic systems with culinary water shares or private wells. Always confirm water rights and septic permits during due diligence — your agent should pull these documents before you remove contingencies.
Which builders are active in the Franklin and north Cache Valley area? ▾
You'll see a mix of regional Cache Valley builders like Visionary Homes, Hamlet Homes on select projects, and a number of smaller local custom builders who work on one to five homes a year. National production builders generally don't operate this far north, which is why floor plans and finishes tend to feel more individualized.
What should I know about building during Cache Valley winters? ▾
Construction slows significantly from December through February because of frozen ground, snow, and the valley's well-known winter inversion. Foundations poured in fall typically pause framing until spring, so a contract signed in October may not deliver until late summer. Build timelines of 7–10 months are realistic, and weather delays should be written into the contract.
Do new homes here come with builder warranties? ▾
Yes. Most Utah builders offer a standard 1-year workmanship warranty, 2-year systems coverage (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), and a 10-year structural warranty, often through a third party like 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. Custom builders sometimes negotiate different terms, so read the warranty addendum carefully before closing.
