Homes with Acreage for Sale in Goshen, Utah
Goshen sits at the south end of Utah Lake, tucked between West Mountain and the Tintic range, and it's one of the few places left in Utah County where you can still buy a house with real, working land attached. The town is small — under 1,000 residents — and zoning here was built around agriculture, so acreage properties aren't an exception, they're the norm. Buyers come to Goshen for pasture, hay ground, room for horses or cattle, and the kind of quiet you don't get in Payson or Spanish Fork anymore. Water rights matter a lot in this corner of the valley; many parcels carry irrigation shares tied to the Goshen Irrigation Company, and that's often as valuable as the dirt itself.
The trade-off is distance. Goshen is roughly 20 minutes from Payson, 30 from Provo, and close to an hour from the Lehi tech corridor, so this works best for buyers who either work remotely, work in south Utah County, or genuinely want the rural life and don't mind the drive. Winters are cold and the wind off Utah Lake can be sharp, but summers are warm and dry with long evenings ideal for working outside. Goshen Elementary serves the youngest grades, with older students bused to Payson schools in the Nebo District.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Goshen.
How much land do most acreage properties in Goshen sit on? ▾
Lot sizes vary widely — anywhere from 1 to 2 acres on the edges of town up to 20+ acre parcels closer to Goshen Canyon and the foothills. Many of the larger holdings are former farmland with established water rights, which is a big part of why buyers come here in the first place.
Does Goshen have culinary and irrigation water for larger lots? ▾
Most properties run on private well water for culinary use, and many of the acreage parcels carry shares in the Goshen Irrigation Company for pasture or crop watering. Always confirm the well status and the number of irrigation shares included before writing an offer — they don't always transfer automatically.
Can I keep horses, cattle, or other livestock on Goshen acreage? ▾
Yes. Goshen's zoning is overwhelmingly agricultural, and livestock is part of the everyday landscape — horses, cattle, sheep, chickens, and goats are all common. Setbacks for barns and corrals are generally generous compared to neighboring cities like Payson or Santaquin.
How long is the commute from Goshen to Provo, Lehi, or Spanish Fork? ▾
Spanish Fork and Payson are about 15–20 minutes via SR-6 and Goshen Canyon Road. Provo runs closer to 30 minutes, and the Silicon Slopes tech corridor in Lehi is roughly 45–50 minutes depending on I-15 traffic. Many Goshen residents work in Nephi, Payson, or remotely.
What do acreage homes in Goshen typically sell for? ▾
Pricing depends heavily on acreage, water rights, and outbuildings. Smaller 1–3 acre properties with a modest home often land in the mid $500s to low $700s, while larger working parcels with barns, shops, and significant water can push past $1M. Raw or partially improved land trades separately.
Are there building lots available if I want to put up a custom home on land? ▾
Goshen does have unimproved and partially improved parcels come up for sale, especially on the south and west sides of town. Septic perc tests, well drilling, and power runs are the main development costs to budget for, and Utah County is the permitting authority.
