5+ Bedroom Homes for Sale in Gunnison, Utah
Gunnison sits in the heart of the Sanpete Valley, about 135 miles south of Salt Lake City along US-89, and it's one of the few places in Utah where a five or six-bedroom house still trades for a fraction of Wasatch Front prices. Most large homes here are either older farmhouses on quarter-acre to full-acre town lots, or newer builds out toward Centerfield and the Gunnison Bend area where lots open up and you can park a trailer, a boat, and still have room for chickens. Buyers chasing 5+ bedroom homes in Gunnison are usually multigenerational families, LDS households planning for growth, or remote workers who want space to spread out without paying Utah County numbers.
The local economy leans on Gunnison Valley Hospital, the Central Utah Correctional Facility, agriculture, and trades, with commuters running to Nephi (45 minutes) or Richfield (35 minutes). Snow College in Ephraim is 20 minutes north, which makes larger homes attractive to families with college-age kids living at home. Winters are cold and dry, summers run hot but cool off at night thanks to the 5,100-foot elevation, and the surrounding hills mean deer hunting, Yuba Reservoir, and Palisade State Park are all within a short drive. Inventory of true 5+ bedroom listings is thin — often only a handful at any given time — so it pays to check back often. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About 5+ bedroom homes in Gunnison.
How many 5+ bedroom homes are typically for sale in Gunnison at one time? ▾
Gunnison is a small market — the city itself has roughly 3,500 residents — so larger homes don't come up often. It's common to see only 2 to 6 active 5+ bedroom listings across Gunnison, Centerfield, and Mayfield combined. If nothing matches today, setting up an alert is the most practical approach.
What price range should I expect for a 5-bedroom home here? ▾
Most 5-bedroom homes in Gunnison list between the mid $300s and low $500s, depending on lot size, age, and whether outbuildings or acreage are included. Older farmhouses near Main Street tend to be cheaper but need updating; newer builds toward Centerfield carry a premium for finishes and garage space.
Do larger homes in Gunnison usually sit on bigger lots? ▾
Often yes. Many 5+ bedroom properties in the area include a half-acre to a full acre, and some include water shares for irrigation or pasture. If outbuildings, a shop, or animal rights matter to you, mention it up front — those features are common but not universal.
What school district serves Gunnison? ▾
Gunnison falls under South Sanpete School District. Kids attend Gunnison Valley Elementary, Gunnison Valley Middle, and Gunnison Valley High, all located within town. Snow College in Ephraim is a short drive north for families with students transitioning to college.
Is Gunnison a reasonable commute to Provo or Salt Lake? ▾
It's a stretch for daily commuting. Provo runs about 90 minutes via I-15 through Nephi, and Salt Lake is closer to two hours. Most buyers here either work locally, at the prison, the hospital, or remotely. Some commute to Nephi or Richfield, both around 35-45 minutes away.
Are basements common in Gunnison's larger homes? ▾
Yes — full basements are standard in Sanpete Valley construction, and that's how most homes hit the 5 or 6 bedroom count. Expect 2 to 3 bedrooms upstairs and the rest finished below grade, often with a second family room and sometimes a separate kitchenette in newer builds.
