5+ Bedroom Homes for Sale in Magna, Utah

Magna sits on the west side of Salt Lake County, tucked against the Oquirrh Mountains with the Great Salt Lake just to the north. For families that need five or more bedrooms, it's one of the more practical spots in the valley — square footage here still costs measurably less than equivalent homes in West Jordan, Herriman, or South Jordan, and the housing stock skews toward larger ramblers and split-entries from the 70s, 80s, and 90s that were built with finished basements and big bedroom counts in mind. Newer two-story builds in the subdivisions off 8400 West and near the Sunset Equestrian area round out the inventory with five-bedroom floor plans above grade.

The lifestyle pitch is straightforward: a 20–25 minute drive to downtown Salt Lake via SR-201, easy access to the airport, Kennecott and Stadler Rail close by for employment, and the Granite School District covering the area through Cyprus High. Larger lots are still common on the south and west ends of town, which matters for buyers who want a shop, RV parking, or room for kids and dogs without paying Daybreak prices. Magna Main Street has seen real investment over the past few years, and the trail system along the Jordan River and out to the lake adds weekend options.

Common questions

About 5+ bedroom homes in Magna.

What's the typical price range for a 5+ bedroom home in Magna?

Most five-bedroom houses in Magna trade in the mid-$500s to high-$600s, with larger newer builds in areas like Magna Main and the Sunset Equestrian/Hunter side pushing into the $700s. Older homes near Magna Main Street with finished basements can come in lower, often in the $450K–$525K range. Pricing here still runs noticeably below comparable square footage in West Jordan or South Jordan.

Are most 5-bedroom listings new construction or older homes with finished basements?

It's a mix. A lot of the five-plus bedroom inventory in Magna is older ramblers and split-entries from the 1970s–90s where the basement was finished to add two or three bedrooms. Newer two-story builds in the subdivisions off 8400 West and near the Oquirrh foothills tend to deliver five bedrooms above grade plus a basement option.

How is the commute from Magna to downtown Salt Lake or the airport?

Magna sits about 17 miles west of downtown SLC. Most commuters take SR-201 to I-215, which runs roughly 20–25 minutes to downtown off-peak and 30–40 in rush hour. Salt Lake International is about 20 minutes via I-80. The Rio Tinto Kennecott copper mine and the Stadler Rail plant in West Valley are major nearby employers.

What school district serves larger homes in Magna?

Magna is part of Granite School District. Elementary options include Pleasant Green, Webster, and Matheson; Matheson Junior High and Cyprus High School handle the upper grades. Cyprus High had a major rebuild completed in 2019, which has been a real draw for families buying bigger homes in the area.

Do 5-bedroom homes in Magna usually sit on larger lots?

Many of them do, especially the older properties south of 3500 South and toward the Oquirrh bench, where quarter-acre and third-acre lots are common. A handful of horse properties with 5+ bedrooms still pop up on the western edge of town. Newer subdivision homes tend to sit on smaller 0.15–0.20 acre lots.

Is Magna a good value compared to other Salt Lake County cities for a big house?

For pure square footage per dollar, Magna is one of the better plays in Salt Lake County right now. A five-bedroom home that runs $800K+ in Herriman or Daybreak often comes in $150K–$200K less in Magna with comparable finishes. The tradeoff is an older housing stock overall and a less polished retail core, though the Magna Main Street revitalization has been steadily improving that.
