Homes with Casitas & Guest Houses in South Weber, Utah
South Weber sits in a quiet pocket of southern Davis County, tucked between the Weber River, the Wasatch foothills, and the northern edge of Hill Air Force Base. It's a small city — under 8,000 residents — with larger lot sizes than you'll see in nearby Layton or Roy, which is exactly why detached casitas and guest houses show up here more often than in tract-style neighborhoods. Many of the homes along South Weber Drive and the streets climbing toward the bench sit on half-acre to full-acre parcels with room for a second structure, mature trees, and views straight across to Antelope Island and the Wasatch front range.
Buyers shopping for a property with a casita in South Weber tend to fall into a few camps: multigenerational families wanting private quarters for aging parents or returning college kids, Hill AFB-connected households who host frequent visitors, and owners looking for a long-term rental setup to help with the mortgage. South Weber's zoning treats accessory dwellings carefully — internal ADUs and detached guest houses each have their own rules, and the city is not friendly to short-term nightly rentals. Verify permit status and zoning on any specific address before assuming a structure is a legal dwelling. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market, and reach out if you want help separating true permitted guest houses from finished outbuildings.

Common questions
About homes with casitas & guest houses in South Weber.
How common are casitas and guest houses in South Weber? ▾
They're a smaller slice of the South Weber market — most inventory is single-family on quarter-acre to one-acre lots, but the larger parcels along South Weber Drive, Cornia Drive, and the foothill streets near the Weber River bench are where detached guest quarters tend to show up. Expect a handful of active listings at any given time rather than dozens.
Does Davis County allow a separate guest house or ADU on residential lots? ▾
South Weber City has its own zoning ordinance, and accessory dwelling units are permitted in certain residential zones with conditions around owner occupancy, parking, and square footage. Internal ADUs are treated differently than detached casitas, so verify the specific zone (R-M, R-L, A, etc.) and whether the unit was permitted before closing. The city planning office can confirm legal status on any specific address.
Why do buyers want casitas in South Weber specifically? ▾
It's a popular setup for multigenerational LDS families, Hill Air Force Base personnel hosting extended visitors, and owners who want rental income to offset payments. South Weber sits 20 minutes from HAFB's south gate and roughly 35 minutes from downtown Salt Lake, so guest quarters get real use from visiting family and traveling professionals.
Can I rent out the casita on Airbnb or as a long-term rental? ▾
Short-term rentals are tightly restricted in South Weber — the city has historically not been friendly to nightly rentals in residential zones. Long-term rentals (30+ days) of a permitted ADU are generally allowed if the property meets owner-occupancy and licensing requirements. Always pull the current ordinance before banking on rental income.
What price range should I expect for a South Weber home with a guest house? ▾
Homes with legitimate detached guest quarters typically land in the upper bracket of the local market — often $700K to $1.2M depending on acreage, age, and whether the casita is finished to full living standards with its own kitchen and laundry. Properties on larger lots near the river or with mountain frontage push higher.
How do I tell if a guest house is legal versus just a finished outbuilding? ▾
Ask for the building permit history and certificate of occupancy through South Weber City. A legal ADU will have permitted electrical, plumbing, and often a separate address or unit designation. Unpermitted living spaces are common in older properties and can create financing, insurance, and resale headaches down the road.
