New Construction Homes for Sale in Erda, Utah
Erda sits in the middle of Tooele Valley, about 35 minutes west of downtown Salt Lake City once you clear the Bangerter interchange and drop over the Oquirrh Mountains. It incorporated as a town in 2022 specifically to control how fast it grows, which means new construction here looks different than what's going up in Lehi or Saratoga Springs. Lot sizes are larger, often a half acre to five acres, horse property is common, and most subdivisions are required to keep density low. Builders active in the area have included Holmes Homes, Ivory, Visionary, and a rotating cast of smaller local builders putting up custom and semi-custom homes on owner-supplied lots.
The pitch for buyers is space without leaving the SLC commute shed: Tesla's expanding footprint, the Tooele Army Depot, and the US Magnesium operations keep local jobs steady, while the Mountain View Corridor extension keeps shaving minutes off the drive to the valley. Winters bring lake-effect snow off the Great Salt Lake, summers run hot and dry, and the views east toward the Oquirrhs and west toward the Stansburys are the reason most people land here instead of staying in Salt Lake County. New build inventory tends to move quickly when priced right, since resale homes on acreage in Erda are scarce. Browse the active listings below to see what builders currently have available, what's under construction, and which lots are still up for grabs.

Common questions
About new construction homes in Erda.
What price range should I expect for new construction in Erda? ▾
Most new builds in Erda fall between roughly $650K and $1.2M, with custom homes on larger acreage pushing well past $1.5M. The premium over Tooele City reflects bigger lots, newer infrastructure, and the lower density Erda's incorporation locked in. Production builder floor plans on smaller lots sit at the lower end of that range.
Are most new homes in Erda on well and septic or city utilities? ▾
It varies by subdivision. Newer planned communities closer to SR-138 are typically on culinary water and sewer through Erda or Tooele City connections, while custom builds on larger parcels often use private wells and septic systems. Always confirm with the builder, since well rights and septic permits affect both cost and timeline.
How long is the commute from Erda to Salt Lake City? ▾
Plan on 35 to 45 minutes to downtown SLC during off-peak hours via I-80, and 50 to 60 minutes in rush hour. The Mountain View Corridor extension into Tooele Valley is shortening drives to the south end of Salt Lake County, which is part of why buyers from Herriman and South Jordan keep showing up out here.
Can I bring my own builder and buy a lot in Erda? ▾
Yes, several Erda subdivisions sell finished lots to buyers who want to hire their own custom builder, and there are still larger acreage parcels available outside platted subdivisions. Architectural standards and minimum square footage rules apply in most HOAs, so check the CC&Rs before you commit to a plan.
Is horse property available in new construction here? ▾
Erda is one of the few places along the Wasatch commute shed where new construction on horse property is still realistic. Lots of one to five acres zoned for animals come up regularly, particularly in the areas north of Erda Way and along Droubay Road. Expect to pay a premium for irrigation shares if the lot includes them.
What school district serves new Erda neighborhoods? ▾
Erda is part of Tooele County School District. Elementary-age kids typically attend Middle Canyon or Northlake, with Tooele Junior High and Tooele High School serving older students. A few families also use Stansbury High depending on boundary, and charter options in Tooele and Stansbury Park are within reasonable driving distance.
