Homes with RV Parking for Sale in Kearns, Utah
Kearns sits on the west side of the Salt Lake Valley, roughly 15 minutes from downtown SLC and 20 from the airport, and it's one of the more practical places along the Wasatch Front to own a toy hauler, boat, or fifth wheel. Lots here tend to run larger than what you'll see in newer west-side subdivisions — many of the original 1950s and 60s homes off 5400 South and Cougar Lane were built on quarter-acre parcels with deep side yards, wide driveways, and alley access. That older street grid is exactly why RV parking shows up so often in Kearns listings: there's room to pull a 30-foot trailer down the side of the house without fighting an HOA. Median sale prices in Kearns generally land below the county average, which means buyers can often get a garage, a yard, and a dedicated rig pad for what a townhouse costs in Daybreak or Herriman.
What to look for on the ground: a gravel or concrete pad at least 12 feet wide, a gate tall enough to clear your slide-outs (most owners need 11–12 feet of vertical clearance), and ideally a 30-amp or 50-amp hookup with a sewer cleanout nearby. Kearns is unincorporated Salt Lake County in most areas, governed by the Kearns Metro Township, so setback and screening rules are generally more relaxed than in incorporated cities like West Jordan or Taylorsville — but confirm before you close. Browse the active listings below to see which Kearns homes currently have the side-yard access and pad space to fit your rig.

Common questions
About homes with rv parking in Kearns.
How wide does my side yard need to be to park an RV in Kearns? ▾
Most Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels are 8.5 feet wide, so plan on a minimum 12-foot-wide gate and pad to allow for mirrors, slides, and turning room. Many older Kearns homes have 14–16 feet between the house and fence line, which is one reason the area is popular with RV owners. Always measure the narrowest pinch point, not just the gate.
Are there HOA restrictions on RV parking in Kearns? ▾
The bulk of Kearns is older, non-HOA neighborhoods built before covenants were standard, which is why RV parking is so common here. A handful of newer pocket developments near 4700 South do have HOAs with rig restrictions, so always pull the CC&Rs before writing an offer. Kearns Metro Township zoning generally allows RV storage on private property with basic screening.
Do I need a permit to pour an RV pad or install a gate? ▾
Concrete flatwork in a side yard typically doesn't require a permit in unincorporated Salt Lake County, but a fence or gate over 6 feet tall does. If you're adding electrical for a 30/50-amp hookup, that's a permitted electrical job. Call Salt Lake County Planning & Development before starting to confirm current rules for your parcel.
What price range do RV-friendly homes in Kearns typically fall into? ▾
Most single-family homes in Kearns currently trade in the mid-$400s to low-$500s, and adding usable RV parking doesn't usually carry a big premium on its own — it's more about finding a lot that already has the access. Larger lots with detached RV garages or oversized shops can push into the $600s. The active listings on this page will show today's real numbers.
Is alley access still available behind some Kearns homes? ▾
Yes — parts of the original Kearns Air Base housing grid south of 5400 South and around Cougar Lane still have rear alleys, which are excellent for backing in a trailer without maneuvering past the house. Not every block has an open, maintained alley, so verify access in person and check the plat map for easement language.
Can I park my RV in the front driveway in Kearns? ▾
Kearns Metro Township ordinance generally allows RVs on a paved or graveled driveway as long as they're not blocking sidewalks or the public right-of-way, and they must belong to the property owner or occupant. Long-term front-yard parking on grass is not permitted. Rules can shift, so check the current Metro Township code before closing if street-side parking is your plan.
