Homes Under $300,000 in Marysvale, Utah
Marysvale sits in Piute County along the Sevier River, about three and a half hours south of Salt Lake and roughly an hour north of the Bryce Canyon area. It's a small town — population hovers around 400 — surrounded by the Tushar Mountains, Fishlake National Forest, and the Paiute ATV Trail system that draws riders from across the West. Under $300K in this part of Utah still gets you something tangible: older single-family homes on generous lots, the occasional cabin, manufactured homes on deeded land, and fixer-uppers with outbuildings or shop space. That price point is harder to find along the Wasatch Front, which is part of why Marysvale keeps showing up on retirement and second-home shortlists.
Buyers shopping this range should know what they're walking into. Many homes here were built before 1980, septic and well systems are common rather than city utilities in some pockets, and winter temperatures regularly drop into the teens at 5,800 feet of elevation. Summers are dry and mild — a real plus compared to St. George heat. Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Sevier River, and direct trail access are within minutes, and Richfield (the nearest full-service town with hospital, Walmart, and chain grocery) is about 25 minutes north on US-89. Inventory under $300K turns over slowly, so listings can sit one week and vanish the next. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market in Marysvale.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Marysvale.
What kind of home does $300K actually buy in Marysvale? ▾
Typically a 2-3 bedroom site-built or manufactured home on a quarter-acre to full acre, often built between 1950 and 1990. Some listings in this range include shop buildings, ATV-ready garages, or river-adjacent lots. Move-in-ready homes do exist here, but a fair share need cosmetic updates or system work.
Are most homes on well and septic or city utilities? ▾
It varies block by block. The older town core has culinary water service, but septic systems are common throughout Marysvale and surrounding parcels. Always confirm water source, septic age, and any shared well agreements during your due diligence period.
Is Marysvale a realistic year-round residence or more of a seasonal spot? ▾
Both work. There's a permanent year-round community, a post office, a couple of restaurants and lodges, and school-age kids bus to Piute County schools. That said, a meaningful percentage of homes in this price range are owned as ATV/snowmobile basecamps and sit vacant part of the year.
How does financing work on older or manufactured homes here? ▾
Conventional and FHA loans are available, but manufactured homes generally need to be on a permanent foundation, deeded with the land, and built after June 1976 to qualify. Some rural cabins or homes with deferred maintenance may only work with cash or renovation loans like FHA 203(k). A local lender familiar with Piute County is worth the call.
What's the property tax situation in Piute County? ▾
Piute County has some of the lowest property tax rates in Utah. On a $300K primary residence with the residential exemption, annual taxes typically land well under $1,500 — a strong draw for retirees and second-home buyers comparing total cost of ownership.
How long do sub-$300K listings usually stay on the market? ▾
It's uneven. Well-priced, updated homes can go under contract in under two weeks, while dated properties or those needing major repairs sometimes sit for several months. Because total inventory is small, setting up MLS alerts is the most reliable way to catch new listings early.
