Homes Under $300,000 in Sunset, Utah
Sunset sits in Davis County between Clearfield and Roy, just west of I-15, and it's one of the few Wasatch Front cities where a budget under $300K still gets real consideration. Most of the housing is older single-level ranchers and rambler-style homes on quarter-acre-ish lots, plus a smaller supply of townhomes and condos nearby. Many were built from the 1950s through the 1970s, so buyers should expect original windows, older roofs, and aging HVAC systems to come up during inspection. In practice, that price point in Sunset often means a fixer-upper or a modest, partly updated rambler, and townhomes are more common than detached homes at the upper end of the range.
The location is the draw. Hill Air Force Base is a short drive away, which keeps steady demand from military families and civilian base employees. Freeway Park, Clearfield's Station Park shopping, and the FrontRunner station in Clearfield are all close, and Salt Lake City airport is about 30 minutes south. Schools are served by Davis School District. The summers are hot and dry, and winters bring inversions and moderate snow, so check insulation and furnace age. Because homes in this range can move quickly, it helps to have your financing lined up before you tour. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market under $300K in Sunset.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Sunset.
How many homes under $300K are usually for sale in Sunset at one time? ▾
Sunset is a small city of roughly 5,500 residents, so active inventory in this price band is typically thin — often only a handful of listings at any given moment. Homes priced realistically under $300K usually go under contract within a couple of weeks, especially anything turn-key.
What kind of home can I realistically get in Sunset for under $300K? ▾
Most options at this price are 3-bedroom ramblers from the 1950s-70s between roughly 1,000 and 1,800 finished square feet, often with a partially finished basement. You'll also see some townhomes and a few manufactured homes on permanent foundations. Fully updated homes in this range are rare and tend to be the smaller footprints.
Will FHA and VA loans work on Sunset homes in this price range? ▾
Yes, and they're the most common financing used here because of Hill AFB. The 2024 FHA loan limit for Davis County sits well above $300K, so the loan type itself isn't a barrier. The bigger issue is condition — older Sunset homes occasionally have peeling exterior paint, roof age, or furnace issues that FHA and VA appraisers will flag.
How close is Sunset to Hill Air Force Base? ▾
The west gate of Hill AFB is about 5-7 minutes from most Sunset addresses via 1900 West or 700 North. That proximity is the main reason demand stays steady here even when interest rates rise — military buyers prioritize short commutes and BAH-friendly price points.
What are property taxes like on a $275-300K home in Sunset? ▾
Davis County property taxes run roughly 0.6-0.7% of assessed value for primary residences after the 45% residential exemption. On a $290,000 home that's generally in the $1,700-$2,000 per year range, which is reasonable compared to most other Western states.
Are HOA fees common at this price point in Sunset? ▾
Single-family homes in Sunset rarely carry an HOA — most of the city is older platted neighborhoods with no association. Townhomes and a few newer pocket developments do have HOAs, typically in the $100-$200 per month range covering exterior maintenance and common areas.
