5+ Bedroom Homes for Sale in Washington Terrace, Utah
Washington Terrace is a compact city of roughly 9,000 people tucked between Ogden and Riverdale, built up after World War II to house workers from Hill Air Force Base and the Ogden rail yards. The original housing stock skews small — three-bedroom brick ramblers on quarter-acre lots — so genuine 5-bedroom homes are a narrower segment of the local market. Most come from one of three sources: mid-century ramblers with fully finished basements that add two or three lower-level bedrooms, expanded split-levels along the bluff overlooking the Weber River, or newer construction on the south side near 5600 South where lots opened up over the past two decades.
Buyers shopping for five or more bedrooms in Washington Terrace are usually balancing space against price. Larger homes in Bountiful or Layton run $100K+ higher for similar square footage, and the Terrace's location — minutes from Hill AFB, the McKay-Dee Hospital corridor, and I-15 — makes it a practical landing spot for military families, multi-generational households, and anyone who needs bedrooms for kids plus a home office. Pay attention to whether basement bedrooms are conforming (legal egress windows matter for appraisal and resale), and check whether additions were permitted through Weber County.

Common questions
About 5+ bedroom homes in Washington Terrace.
How common are 5-bedroom homes in Washington Terrace? ▾
They're a smaller slice of the market here. Washington Terrace was built largely in the 1950s and 60s as workforce housing for Hill Air Force Base and the railroad, so the original housing stock leans toward 3-bedroom ramblers around 1,200-1,600 square feet. Most 5+ bedroom options come from finished basements, additions, or newer infill construction on the south and east edges of town.
What price range should I expect for a 5-bedroom home here? ▾
Most 5-bedroom homes in Washington Terrace fall between the upper $400s and low $600s, depending on whether the extra bedrooms are conforming (legal egress windows) and whether the basement is finished. That's still well below comparable homes in Bountiful or South Ogden, which is why this pocket gets attention from larger families on a budget.
Are basement bedrooms considered conforming? ▾
Only if they have a code-compliant egress window and proper ceiling height. Many older Washington Terrace homes were finished by previous owners without permits, so a listed '5-bedroom' may include rooms that don't meet current code. Ask your agent to verify which bedrooms are conforming before you write an offer — it affects appraisal and insurance.
Which schools serve larger families in Washington Terrace? ▾
The city falls under Weber School District. Kids typically attend Washington Terrace Elementary, then T.H. Bell Junior High, and Bonneville High School. Families with five-plus bedrooms are usually weighing school boundaries carefully, so confirm the assigned schools for any specific address since boundaries can shift.
How's the commute to Hill AFB or downtown Ogden from a larger home here? ▾
Washington Terrace sits right off Highway 89, about 10 minutes to Hill Air Force Base and 5-7 minutes to downtown Ogden. That proximity is the main reason military families and Ogden hospital workers keep coming back to this neighborhood when they need more bedrooms without a long drive.
Do 5+ bedroom homes here typically have larger lots? ▾
Often yes. The original Terrace lots run 0.18-0.30 acres — generous compared to newer Davis County subdivisions — and the homes that have been expanded to five bedrooms usually sit on the bigger end of that range. Expect mature trees, detached garages or workshops, and room for an RV pad on many properties.
