Homes with Acreage for Sale in Uintah, Utah
Uintah is a small, unincorporated community tucked along the Weber River corridor in Weber County, sitting just northeast of Ogden and roughly 40 miles from Salt Lake City's international airport. What draws buyers here isn't density — it's the opposite. Acreage properties in Uintah give homeowners genuine breathing room: the kind of lot where horses can graze, equipment can be stored without an HOA letter arriving in the mailbox, and a vegetable garden doesn't feel like an afterthought. The surrounding landscape — framed by the Wasatch Range to the east and the Weber River greenbelt below — means that extra land often comes with unobstructed views of Ben Lomond Peak or the foothills rolling toward Ogden Canyon. Weber County's agricultural roots run deep here, and many parcels carry water rights tied to historic irrigation shares, which can be a significant asset for buyers who want productive land rather than just open space.
Acreage in Uintah tends to be priced meaningfully below comparable lot sizes in neighboring communities like Liberty or Huntsville, yet the commute to Ogden's downtown or Hill Air Force Base — one of northern Utah's largest employers — stays under 20 minutes. Weber School District serves the area, with Sky View and Fremont high schools drawing solid reputations among families. Lot sizes for acreage listings typically start around half an acre and scale up to five or more acres, with prices generally ranging from the mid-$400,000s into the low $900,000s depending on improvements and water rights included. If you want land without sacrificing a reasonable drive to work, Uintah sits in a genuinely practical sweet spot. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Uintah.
How much land do 'acreage' listings in Uintah typically include? ▾
Most acreage listings in Uintah start at around half an acre and commonly range up to five or more acres. True agricultural parcels — large enough for a small horse operation or hobby farm — tend to fall in the one-to-three-acre range. The county's zoning designations (primarily A-1 and A-2 agricultural zones) generally require a minimum lot size of one acre, which naturally filters the inventory toward genuinely spacious properties.
Do acreage properties in Uintah typically include water rights? ▾
Many do, and it's one of the most important things to verify before making an offer. Uintah sits within the Weber Basin watershed, and older parcels often carry shares in local irrigation companies or Weber River water rights dating back generations. Water rights are separate from the deed in Utah and must be transferred explicitly at closing — your agent should confirm exactly what shares convey and whether they are wet-water rights or paper rights only.
Can I keep horses or livestock on an acreage property in Uintah? ▾
Yes, in most cases. Weber County's A-1 agricultural zoning, which covers much of Uintah, permits horses, cattle, and other livestock on qualifying parcels. A common guideline is one large animal per half-acre of usable pasture, though specific setback and shelter requirements apply. Buyers planning an equestrian setup should confirm zoning compliance and check whether the parcel has secondary water access for irrigation, since municipal culinary water alone is rarely sufficient for livestock operations.
How does the price of an acreage home in Uintah compare to similar properties in nearby communities? ▾
Uintah generally prices below comparable acreage in Huntsville, Liberty, or South Ogden's east bench. A two-to-three-acre improved property in Uintah might list in the $550,000–$750,000 range where a similar footprint in Huntsville's valley could push well past $800,000. The trade-off is that Uintah is unincorporated, so municipal services are more limited — but for buyers who prioritize land value per dollar, that trade-off often makes sense.
What is the commute like from Uintah to major employers in the area? ▾
Uintah sits about five to ten minutes from central Ogden via US-89, putting downtown Ogden's growing tech and medical corridor well within reach. Hill Air Force Base in Layton is roughly 25–30 minutes south on I-15 or US-89, making Uintah workable for military and defense-contractor families. Salt Lake City is approximately 40 miles south, a commute that runs 45–55 minutes outside of peak congestion windows.
Are there HOA restrictions on acreage properties in Uintah? ▾
The majority of acreage parcels in Uintah are not governed by an HOA, which is a significant draw for buyers who want to park a trailer, run a business from their property, or build outbuildings without committee approval. Weber County does enforce its own land-use ordinances — setbacks, structure heights, accessory dwelling unit rules — so those county standards still apply. Always review the title report and any recorded CC&Rs to confirm no subdivision-level restrictions exist on a specific parcel.
