Homes with Acreage for Sale in Myton, Utah
Myton sits in the Uinta Basin off Highway 40, about halfway between Roosevelt and Duchesne, where the Duchesne River carves through high-desert ranchland at roughly 5,100 feet. Acreage here isn't a luxury upgrade — it's the default. Most parcels run between 2 and 40 acres, with working hay ground, horse setups, and irrigated pasture making up a big share of what hits the MLS. Water rights tied to the Moon Lake Water Users or Dry Gulch Irrigation systems are often what separate a $300K parcel from a $600K one, so pay close attention to deeded shares on every listing. Soil is sandy loam, summers run hot and dry (mid-90s in July), winters are cold but drier than the Wasatch Back, and the growing season is short — usually mid-May through late September.
Buyers drawn to acreage in Myton are typically energy-sector workers commuting to oil and gas jobs around Roosevelt and Vernal, retirees wanting elbow room without HOA rules, or ranchers expanding small cow-calf operations. Zoning through Duchesne County is forgiving — outbuildings, livestock, and secondary dwellings are usually permitted with minimal red tape. Salt Lake City is about a 2.5-hour drive over Daniels Summit, and the Roosevelt Municipal Airport handles general aviation 15 minutes east. Properties with a domestic well, established fencing, and a producing hay field move fastest. Browse the active acreage listings below to see what's currently on the market in and around Myton.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Myton.
How much land do most acreage listings in Myton include? ▾
Parcels typically range from 2 to 40 acres, with a meaningful chunk of inventory sitting in the 5-to-20-acre band. Larger ranch holdings of 80 to 300+ acres come up a few times a year, usually with grazing leases or BLM access attached.
Do Myton acreage properties usually come with water rights? ▾
Many do, but never assume — verify the deeded shares on every listing. Most irrigated ground pulls from Moon Lake Water Users Association or Dry Gulch Irrigation Company, and shares are priced separately in some sales. Without water, pasture and hay ground lose most of their productive value.
Can I run horses or cattle on Myton acreage? ▾
Yes. Duchesne County zoning across most of the Myton area allows livestock by right on agricultural and rural residential parcels, and the majority of acreage listings already have perimeter fencing, loafing sheds, or corrals in place. Carrying capacity depends on whether the ground is irrigated or dryland.
What's the price range for acreage homes in Myton right now? ▾
Most homes on 5 to 20 acres land between $350,000 and $650,000, depending on the house condition, water rights, and outbuildings. Bare land runs roughly $5,000 to $15,000 per acre for dryland and considerably more for irrigated ground with shares.
Are wells and septic standard out here? ▾
Almost always. Myton is rural enough that municipal water and sewer don't reach most acreage parcels, so expect a private domestic well and a septic system. Ask for well logs, flow-rate tests, and septic inspection records before closing — replacement costs are significant.
How far is Myton from major services and the nearest hospital? ▾
Roosevelt is about 12 miles east and handles groceries, fuel, and the Uintah Basin Medical Center. Vernal is roughly 40 miles east for larger retail and the regional hospital, and Salt Lake City is about 150 miles west over Daniels Summit on Highway 40.
