Cedar Hills, Utah

Homes with Acreage for Sale in Cedar Hills, Utah

Cedar Hills is a small foothill city of about 10,000 tucked between American Fork Canyon and the Mount Timpanogos face, and it was largely platted around the Cedar Hills Golf Club in the 1990s and 2000s. Because the city is mostly built out and hemmed in by Pleasant Grove, Highland, and the mountain itself, true acreage is a limited inventory category here. What buyers usually mean by "acreage in Cedar Hills" is a half-acre to one-acre estate lot — often on Canyon Road, Cottonwood Drive, or the bench streets climbing toward the foothills — where there's room for a shop, RV pad, large garden, or a sport court without bumping into the neighbor's fence.

The trade-off versus going further out to Cedar Fort or Eagle Mountain is that Cedar Hills keeps you 12 minutes from Silicon Slopes, inside the Lone Peak High School boundary, and on the city's pressurized secondary irrigation system, which makes watering a bigger lot far cheaper than it would be on culinary water alone. Winters bring real snow at this elevation (about 4,900 ft), and summer evenings run cooler than the valley floor, so larger yards here get used spring through fall. Homes in this category tend to be 4,000+ square feet with three-car garages and Timpanogos views. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently sitting on a larger parcel in Cedar Hills.

Common questions

About homes with acreage in Cedar Hills.

How much land does a typical 'acreage' home in Cedar Hills sit on?

Most Cedar Hills properties marketed as acreage sit on a half-acre to roughly an acre, with a smaller pocket of estate lots running 1-2+ acres along the foothills above Canyon Road and near the golf course. True multi-acre parcels are rare inside city limits because Cedar Hills is largely built out, so buyers wanting 5+ acres usually look next door in Cedar Fort, Alpine bench, or unincorporated Utah County.

Can I keep horses or livestock on acreage in Cedar Hills?

Cedar Hills zoning is more restrictive than neighboring Alpine or Highland when it comes to animal rights. Horses and larger livestock generally require specific lot sizes and zoning designations, so verify with Cedar Hills City before writing an offer if animals are the priority. Buyers serious about horse property often end up in Alpine, Cedar Fort, or the Highland equestrian areas instead.

What's the price range for acreage homes here?

Larger-lot homes in Cedar Hills typically run from the high $800s into the $2M+ range depending on view, finish level, and proximity to the golf course. Foothill lots with unobstructed Mount Timpanogos views command the biggest premiums, and newer custom builds above 4,500 sq ft routinely clear $1.5M.

Is water for irrigating a large lot expensive?

Cedar Hills has a pressurized secondary (irrigation) water system separate from culinary water, which keeps the cost of watering a larger lot reasonable compared to cities without secondary systems. That said, the state has been pushing meters on secondary connections, so expect usage-based billing rather than the old flat-rate model going forward.

How's the commute from Cedar Hills to Silicon Slopes or Salt Lake?

Cedar Hills sits just off the Alpine Highway with quick access to I-15 at the Pleasant Grove or Lehi exits. Lehi's Silicon Slopes tech corridor is roughly 10-15 minutes, Thanksgiving Point is even closer, and downtown Salt Lake runs about 45 minutes in normal traffic. Point of the Mountain construction can add time during peak hours.

Which schools serve larger-lot neighborhoods in Cedar Hills?

Cedar Hills feeds into Alpine School District — typically Deerfield or Cedar Ridge Elementary, Mt. Ridge Junior High, and Lone Peak High School. Lone Peak consistently ranks among the top public high schools in Utah, which is a major driver of demand for family-sized acreage homes in the area.
