New Listings in Gunlock, Utah
Gunlock sits about 20 miles northwest of St. George along the Santa Clara River, and it's one of those small Washington County communities where new MLS activity is genuinely rare. The town has fewer than 250 residents, no stoplights, and most properties trade through word-of-mouth before they ever hit the market — so when fresh listings do appear, they tend to move quickly. Inventory here ranges from older ranch homes on irrigated acreage to newer custom builds taking advantage of the red rock and reservoir views toward Gunlock State Park. Lot sizes typically run larger than what you'd find inside St. George city limits, and many parcels carry water shares tied to the Shem and Gunlock irrigation systems, which matters if you're planning pasture, orchard, or horses.
Buyers tracking new Gunlock listings are usually after something specific: acreage within a 25-minute drive of St. George, room for livestock or an arena, or a quieter base that still keeps Snow Canyon, Sand Hollow, and the SGU airport within easy reach. Climate-wise you're in the same Mojave-edge zone as St. George — hot summers, mild winters, almost no snow — but Gunlock runs a few degrees cooler at night thanks to its elevation along the river. Because turnover is low, setting up a saved search and watching the new-listing feed daily is the realistic way to catch the right property.

Common questions
About new listings in Gunlock.
How often do new homes come on the market in Gunlock? ▾
Gunlock typically sees only a handful of MLS listings per year — sometimes fewer than ten. Because the town is so small and many properties are held long-term by families with generational ties, weeks or months can pass between new listings. If you're serious about buying here, set up an instant-alert saved search so you see properties the day they hit.
What price range should I expect for a new Gunlock listing? ▾
Recent activity has ranged widely depending on acreage and water rights — older homes on small lots have come in under $500K, while custom homes on multi-acre parcels with irrigation shares and views routinely list between $900K and $1.8M+. Land-only parcels also show up periodically. Price per acre matters more here than price per square foot.
Do Gunlock properties usually include water shares? ▾
Many do, and it's one of the first things to verify. Shares in the Gunlock Irrigation Company or Shem Reservoir can significantly affect both value and what you're able to do with the land — pasture, orchard, horses, or larger landscaping. Always ask the listing agent to confirm shares in writing before you write an offer.
How far is Gunlock from St. George amenities? ▾
It's roughly a 25-minute drive into St. George for groceries, Costco, the regional hospital, and the SGU airport. Veyo and Ivins are even closer for basic services and dining. Snow Canyon State Park, Gunlock Reservoir, and the Pine Valley Mountains are all within 15 to 30 minutes.
Are most Gunlock listings on well and septic? ▾
Yes — there's no municipal sewer, so septic systems are standard, and many properties run on private or shared wells in addition to culinary water through the local system. Septic inspections and well flow tests should be part of any due diligence here.
What school district serves Gunlock? ▾
Gunlock is part of the Washington County School District. Students typically attend schools in Santa Clara or St. George, with bus service running the canyon route. Some families in the area also use Water Canyon, Tuacahn, or other Washington County charter and magnet options.
