Homes Under $500,000 in Stansbury Park, Utah
Stansbury Park sits on the west side of the Oquirrh Mountains in Tooele Valley, about 35 miles from downtown Salt Lake City via I-80. It's a planned community built around a small lake, an 18-hole golf course, and a network of paved trails — which makes it one of the few Wasatch-adjacent areas where a sub-$500K budget still lands you a detached home with a yard, a two-car garage, and water views within walking distance. Buyers priced out of Daybreak, Herriman, and South Jordan have been steadily moving west for the past five years, and Stansbury Park has absorbed a lot of that demand without losing its quieter, lake-town feel.
Under $500K in Stansbury you're typically shopping 3-4 bedroom homes from the late 1990s through mid-2010s, plus newer townhomes in Lakeside and Benson Mill. Property taxes run lower than Salt Lake County, the schools feed into Stansbury High (Tooele County School District), and you're 15 minutes from the Tooele Walmart, Soelberg's grocery, and Mountain West Medical Center. Winters are milder than the benches but the valley does hold inversion, and summers run hot and dry with the lake offering paddleboarding and catch-and-release fishing. Inventory in this price range moves quickly when it's priced right, especially during spring and early summer. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market under $500,000.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in Stansbury Park.
What kind of home can I actually get under $500K in Stansbury Park? ▾
At this price point you're typically looking at 3-4 bedroom single-family homes built between the late 1990s and mid-2010s, usually 1,800-2,600 finished square feet on a 0.15-0.25 acre lot. Older Stansbury homes near the lake and golf course tend to come in lower, while newer builds in Lakeside and Village pop up in the upper end of this range when the market softens. Townhomes and patio homes also land well under $500K and move quickly.
Is $500K a realistic budget for Stansbury Park right now? ▾
Yes — Stansbury's median sale price has hovered in the high $400s to low $500s for the past couple of years, so a $500K ceiling puts you right in the meat of the market. You'll see more inventory here than in comparable Salt Lake County suburbs at the same price, which is a big part of why Tooele Valley keeps drawing commuters.
What's the commute like from Stansbury Park to Salt Lake City? ▾
It's roughly 35 miles to downtown SLC via I-80, generally 35-45 minutes outside of rush hour and closer to an hour during weekday morning traffic through the Lake Point bottleneck. UTA runs express bus service from Tooele/Stansbury to downtown, and the Salt Lake International Airport sits about 30 minutes east, which is part of the appeal for travel-heavy professionals.
Do homes in this price range come with HOA fees? ▾
Most do. The Stansbury Park Service Agency and the Stansbury Park Improvement District handle community amenities — the lake, parks, clubhouse, and trails — and homeowners pay modest annual assessments rather than a typical monthly HOA. Some newer subdivisions like Lakeside and Benson Mill have additional sub-association dues. Budget a few hundred dollars a year on top of the base service fees.
Which schools serve homes under $500K here? ▾
Stansbury Park is part of Tooele County School District. Most homes feed into Stansbury Park Elementary or Rose Springs Elementary, then Clarke N. Johnsen Middle School, and Stansbury High School. The high school has a strong reputation for athletics and CTE programs, and all three feeder schools sit inside the community so kids can bike or walk.
How fast do sub-$500K listings sell in Stansbury Park? ▾
Well-priced homes under $500K typically go under contract in 2-4 weeks, faster in spring. Anything that shows well near the golf course or with lake views moves quicker. If a listing sits past 45 days, it's usually a pricing or condition issue worth asking about before you write an offer.
