3 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Homes for Sale in South Salt Lake, Utah

Three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes sit squarely in the sweet spot of South Salt Lake's housing market — practical enough for families, right-sized for remote workers who need a dedicated office, and affordable enough to compete in a metro area where Salt Lake City proper routinely pushes buyers into six-figure bidding wars. South Salt Lake is a fully built-out, 7-square-mile city bordered by Murray, Millcreek, and Salt Lake City itself, which means short commutes are baked in: downtown SLC is roughly 10–15 minutes north, the I-15/I-80 interchange sits at the city's northwest edge, and TRAX light rail runs along the 300 West corridor for car-free commuters. The city's housing stock skews toward mid-century ranch-styles — think solid brick construction, mature trees, and single-level layouts that naturally land in that 3-bed/2-bath footprint. Prices for this configuration have generally ranged from the upper $300,000s to the mid-$400,000s depending on updates, lot size, and proximity to recently revitalized commercial corridors like State Street and 2100 South.

Buyers drawn to this bedroom-and-bath count often find South Salt Lake competitive with neighboring Millcreek and Murray while offering a slightly lower entry price. The Granite School District serves most of the city, with schools like Granite Park Jr. High and Olympus High School nearby. Proximity to the Fairmont Park neighborhood, the Jordan River Parkway trail system, and a growing restaurant and brewery scene along 2100 South rounds out the lifestyle picture. Investors and first-time buyers both show up here — rental demand is strong given the city's central location and its appeal to University of Utah staff and downtown Salt Lake workers.

Common questions

About 3 bed 2 bath homes in South Salt Lake.

What's the typical price range for a 3 bed 2 bath home in South Salt Lake?

Most 3-bed, 2-bath houses in South Salt Lake trade between the mid $400s and low $600s, depending on whether the second bath is original or a basement addition. Updated bungalows near Granite High and homes south of 3300 South tend to push toward the top of that range. Condition and lot size move the number more than square footage in this market.

Are most of these homes single-level or do they have basements?

The bulk of the 3/2 inventory here is post-war ramblers and brick bungalows built between 1940 and 1965, almost all with full or partial basements. The second bathroom is frequently downstairs, which is worth checking if you want both baths on the main floor. A smaller share are newer townhomes near State Street and 2100 South.

How is the commute from South Salt Lake to downtown or the U?

South Salt Lake sits roughly 10 minutes from downtown SLC via I-15 or State Street and about 15 minutes to the University of Utah via I-80. TRAX runs through the city along 200 West with stops at Central Pointe and Millcreek, which makes car-free commuting realistic for a lot of owners here.

Which school district serves South Salt Lake?

Homes here feed into Granite School District. Common assignments include Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson Elementary, Granite Park Junior High, and Cottonwood or Granger High depending on the address. Always verify boundaries on the specific listing since they shift block by block.

Is the second bathroom usually a full bath or a three-quarter?

On older homes the downstairs bath is often a three-quarter (shower, no tub) added when the basement was finished. MLS data sometimes counts a three-quarter as a full bath, so check the room details or ask your agent to confirm before writing an offer if a tub matters to you.

How fast do 3/2 homes move in South Salt Lake?

Well-priced, updated homes in this configuration typically go under contract in two to three weeks, with fixers and homes backing State Street sitting longer. Inventory is tightest in spring. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently available.
