5+ Bedroom Homes for Sale in La Verkin, Utah
La Verkin sits at the mouth of the Virgin River canyon, about 20 minutes from Zion National Park and 25 minutes north of St. George. It's a small town — roughly 4,500 residents — but the housing stock has shifted over the last decade as families priced out of Washington and Hurricane have moved up the hill for larger lots and lower per-square-foot pricing. Five-bedroom homes here tend to fall into two camps: older ranch-style properties on quarter-acre to half-acre lots in the original town grid, and newer two-story builds in subdivisions like Anasazi Trails and the developments off State Street where multigenerational layouts (main-floor primary plus a basement with a second kitchen) are increasingly common.
Buyers looking at 5+ bedroom homes in La Verkin are usually solving for one of three things: room for kids and visiting grandparents, a short-term rental play given the Zion traffic, or a home office plus guest setup for remote workers relocating from California or the Wasatch Front. The climate works in your favor for big homes — high desert sun, mild winters in the 50s, summers that hit triple digits but cool off fast at night thanks to the 3,200-foot elevation. Washington County School District serves the area, with La Verkin Elementary and Hurricane Middle and High nearby. Browse the active listings below to see which 5-bedroom homes are currently on the market and how they compare on lot size, basement finish, and proximity to the river.

Common questions
About 5+ bedroom homes in La Verkin.
What's the typical price range for a 5-bedroom home in La Verkin? ▾
Most 5-bedroom homes in La Verkin trade between roughly $550,000 and $850,000, depending on age, lot size, and whether the basement is fully finished. Newer builds in the subdivisions off State Street tend to sit at the top of that range, while older homes on larger lots near the original town center can come in lower per square foot.
Are 5-bedroom homes in La Verkin allowed as short-term rentals? ▾
La Verkin permits nightly rentals in specific zones, and a handful of 5-bedroom homes are actively run as Zion-area vacation rentals. Zoning and HOA rules vary block by block, so verify the specific parcel's STR eligibility with La Verkin City before writing an offer if rental income is part of your plan.
Do most 5-bedroom homes here have basements or are they all single-level? ▾
It's a mix. Older homes built before the 2000s are often single-level ranch layouts where the bedroom count comes from a wider footprint. Newer construction frequently uses a walk-out or daylight basement to hit five or six bedrooms, which works well for multigenerational households or hosting Zion visitors.
How close are 5-bedroom listings to Zion National Park? ▾
La Verkin sits at the junction of SR-9 and SR-17, so the south entrance of Zion at Springdale is about 25 to 30 minutes east. That proximity is the main reason larger homes here see steady demand from both families and investors targeting park visitors.
What schools serve La Verkin? ▾
La Verkin is in the Washington County School District. Kids typically attend La Verkin Elementary in town, then Hurricane Intermediate, Hurricane Middle, and Hurricane High School, all about 5 to 10 minutes south. Water Canyon and a few charter options in the broader St. George area are also within reach.
Is water availability a concern for larger homes and lots in La Verkin? ▾
Southern Utah is in a long-term drought, and Washington County has tightened landscaping rules on new construction — turf limits, drip irrigation requirements, and so on. Larger lots with mature trees and grass usually rely on secondary irrigation shares, which transfer with the property. Ask for the water rights and irrigation details on any 5-bedroom home with significant outdoor space.
