New Construction Homes for Sale in Willard, Utah
Willard is one of Box Elder County's quietest success stories — a small town of roughly 1,800 residents tucked between the Wasatch Range foothills and the eastern shore of Willard Bay, about 15 minutes north of Ogden and an hour from Salt Lake City International Airport via I-15. Land is still relatively affordable here compared to the Weber County cities to the south, which is exactly why builders have taken notice. New construction in Willard tends to mean larger lots, more elbow room between neighbors, and the kind of mountain-and-water views — specifically the Bear River Mountains to the east and Willard Bay to the west — that in Davis or Salt Lake counties would cost significantly more per square foot. Many of the newest subdivisions are going up near the Highway 89 corridor, offering quick I-15 access while still feeling removed from the metro sprawl.
Buying new construction here means you're getting modern energy codes, open-concept floor plans built for today's buyers, and warranties that resale homes simply can't offer. Box Elder School District serves Willard, with Willard Elementary and Box Elder High School in nearby Brigham City drawing families looking for a slower pace without sacrificing quality education. Buyers should understand that Willard is still a growing market — some developments are phased, meaning you may have the option to select finishes or even customize layouts depending on where a project stands. Builder incentives, including rate buy-downs and closing cost contributions, are increasingly common in this corridor. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market.

Common questions
About new construction homes in Willard.
What's the typical price range for new construction in Willard right now? ▾
Most new builds run from the high $500s for standard lots on the flats to the low $800s for larger benchwood lots with views. Custom homes on the upper benches above 1700 East regularly clear $1M, especially on parcels of half an acre or more with walkout basements.
Are lots in Willard larger than what's typical in Davis or Weber County? ▾
Yes — that's one of the main reasons buyers shop here. Quarter-acre lots exist, but half-acre and full-acre parcels are common, and many new subdivisions specifically allow RV parking and detached shops. Zoning still permits a few backyard chickens and horses on the larger ag-adjacent lots.
Which builders are active in Willard? ▾
The mix changes year to year, but regional Utah builders dominate rather than the big national production companies. Several local Cache Valley and Box Elder builders run small phased subdivisions, and a meaningful share of new homes are owner-contracted customs on individual lots purchased from landowners.
How is the commute to Hill AFB, Ogden, or Salt Lake? ▾
Hill AFB runs about 35-40 minutes via I-15 south. Downtown Ogden is 15-20 minutes, and Salt Lake City is roughly an hour outside of rush hour. Logan is about 30 minutes north through Sardine Canyon, which can slow down in winter storms.
What schools serve new neighborhoods in Willard? ▾
Willard falls under Box Elder School District. Elementary students typically attend Willard Elementary in town, with middle and high school students bused to Box Elder Middle and Box Elder High in Brigham City, about 10 minutes north.
Are there view lots, and what are buyers actually looking at? ▾
The benches east of Highway 89 face west over Willard Bay and the Great Salt Lake, with sunset views that are the main draw. Lots higher up also pick up the Wellsville Mountains behind the house. Builders price view premiums into bench lots accordingly — often $40K-$80K over comparable flat ground.
