Homes with Acreage for Sale in Richmond, Utah
Richmond sits in the north end of Cache Valley, about 15 miles north of Logan and a straight shot up Highway 91 toward the Idaho line. It's still a working agricultural town — dairy operations, hay ground, and the Pepperidge Farm bakery anchor the local economy — which means acreage parcels here aren't a novelty. They're how a lot of Richmond has always been platted. Buyers shopping for homes on one to forty-plus acres will find everything from older farmhouses on irrigated pasture to newer builds tucked against the foothills east of town with views across the valley to the Wellsville Mountains. Water rights, share counts in local irrigation companies, and fence condition matter more here than granite countertops, and most sellers know it.
Climate-wise, plan on real winters — Cache Valley runs colder than the Wasatch Front and routinely sees inversions and sub-zero nights in January — so outbuildings, frost-free hydrants, and decent shelter for animals are practical concerns, not luxuries. Zoning in Richmond City and the surrounding unincorporated Cache County allows horses, cattle, chickens, and most small livestock on appropriately sized lots, and 4-H is genuinely active in the area. Commuters can reach Utah State University in Logan in about 20 minutes and the Idaho state line in under 10. Browse the active acreage listings below to see what's currently on the market, and reach out if you want help sorting through water shares or zoning before you write an offer.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Richmond.
What size parcels are typical for acreage homes in Richmond? ▾
Listings generally fall into a few buckets: smaller hobby-farm lots of 1 to 5 acres inside or just outside city limits, mid-sized 5 to 20 acre parcels with pasture and outbuildings, and occasional larger holdings of 20 to 100+ acres on the valley floor or up against the foothills. Inventory is thin, so what's available shifts month to month.
Do acreage properties in Richmond come with water rights or irrigation shares? ▾
Many do, but not all — and the details matter. Properties may include shares in local irrigation companies like Richmond Irrigation or have secondary water taps, while others rely solely on culinary water. Always confirm share counts, delivery schedules, and whether shares transfer with the deed before closing.
Can I keep horses, cattle, or other livestock on Richmond acreage? ▾
Yes, on appropriately zoned and sized lots. Richmond City and unincorporated Cache County both allow livestock under animal-unit rules tied to acreage. Check the specific zoning (A-10, RA, etc.) on any parcel you're serious about, since setback and density rules vary.
How does pricing compare to acreage in the Logan area or southern Cache Valley? ▾
Richmond typically prices a bit lower per acre than Providence, Nibley, or River Heights closer to Logan, mostly because of the commute distance and slightly colder microclimate. The trade-off is more land for the money and a quieter, more rural feel.
What's the commute like from Richmond to Logan or the Wasatch Front? ▾
Logan and Utah State University are roughly 20 minutes south on Highway 91. Salt Lake City is about 90 minutes via Sardine Canyon and I-15 in good weather — longer when winter storms hit the canyon. Most Richmond residents work in Cache Valley itself.
Are well and septic common on Richmond acreage, or is it city utilities? ▾
It depends on location. Parcels inside Richmond City limits usually connect to municipal culinary water and sewer, while properties further out commonly run on private wells and septic systems. Septic inspections and well flow tests are standard parts of due diligence on rural listings here.
